About this job

The role also requires the flexibility for occasional travel, including visits to project partners in Munich. About you: To succeed in this role, you need a strong background in robotics, mechatronics, automatic control, computer vision, or a very closely related field. This must be supported by either a PhD or an engineering degree together with relevant professional experience. You are motivated by the opportunity to work at the intersection of advanced instrumentation, software integration, and experimental science within a large-scale international research facility. You bring solid hands-on experience in robotics and computer vision, including system integration, motion control, sensor or camera systems, and software development for automated or semi-automated platforms. You are comfortable working across both hardware and software layers and enjoy turning complex technical requirements into reliable operational systems. You have strong programming and software engineering skills, particularly in Python and C/C++, and are confident working in Linux environments, using version control systems such as Git, and developing within frameworks such as ROS. Experience with CAD software and mechanical system design is also expected. Experience in one or more of the following areas would be an advantage: Integration of robotic systems with scientific or industrial control systems. Machine vision, calibration, or multi-camera tracking systems. Motion planning, simulation, or digital twin environments. Experimental automation in research or large-scale infrastructure environments. EPICS, NICOS, neutron or synchrotron instrumentation, or similar scientific facilities. For candidates applying at the postdoctoral level, experience of publishing research results and contributing to scientific projects is highly valued. Experience supervising students or mentoring junior colleagues would also be beneficial. As a person, you are collaborative, proactive, and curious, with a strong interest in learning and developing new skills. You communicate clearly and work effectively with engineers, scientists, software developers, an
