Localisation and Mapping Engineer

Help Robots Navigate Industrial Sites Safely
(West London - with some travel)

You'll be building the "eyes and brain" that help robots safely navigate busy industrial sites - keeping human workers away from dangerous areas while making operations more efficient.
The role pays £45K-£65K depending on your experience, with potential for equity in a growing British tech company.

Your typical week:

Writing algorithms that help robots understand their surroundings using multiple sensors
Creating and refining 3D maps of industrial environments
Improving our location tracking accuracy - critical for safe robot operation
Collaborating directly with our 15-person engineering team
Testing your solutions on real robots in actual industrial settings

You are ideal if you:

Have a Masters/PhD in Robotics, Computer Vision, or similar
Are skilled in Python and C++ (we use both daily)
Have hands-on experience with SLAM, ROS, or similar robotics frameworks
Want to solve complex technical challenges that directly impact safety
Prefer working in small, focused teams rather than large corporations

The challenging parts:

You'll need to balance accuracy with real-world performance constraints
Some solutions will require multiple iterations to get right

Why their engineers stay:

You'll own major features from concept to deployment
Direct access to our technical founders (both PhDs in Robotics)
We're small enough that your work has immediate impact
Clear path to technical leadership as we grow
Your solutions could become patented technology
