Robotics Vision & Perception Engineer (mfd)

Batch Robotics is revolutionizing how robots operate in factories not through rigid programming or teaching by human demonstration but with smart perception and AI intelligence. We are a team of 4 motivated people with 25 years of experience in industry and robotics. Our mission is to make robots smarter and more flexible enabling batch-size-1 automation for surface treatment economically. Our technology helps factories in Europe to remain competitive with intelligent robotics.

We are now looking for a Robotics Vision & Perception Engineer (m/f/d) with technical excellence and entrepreneurial drive to join us in developing the next generation of AI-driven robotic systems!

Tasks

Multi-Camera & Sensor Fusion: Architect integrate optimize and evaluate multi-camera vision and other sensor hardware perception systems. This includes developing robust multi-sensor calibration synchronization and visual-inertial or multi-modal fusion strategies that withstand environment variability and industrial noise of factories.

Data Pipelines & ML Ops: Build end-to-end data pipelines spanning real-world vision and sensor (e.g. force structured light laser scanners) data ingestion dataset management and synthetic data generation via simulation tools.

3D Perception & Shape Reconstruction: Design implement and optimize computer vision and perception sensor software algorithms and ML systems to automate the generation of a digital twin of the workspace and workpiece under real-world factory constraints.

Factory Integration: Deploy trained models into low-latency production-grade robotics systems ensuring real-time inference and seamless communication of the perception stack with robot control and policy pathways.

Evaluation & Industrial Robustness: Run permanent rigorous evaluation experiments failure mode analyses and benchmarking against accuracy and latency thresholds to guarantee fail-safe operation on the physical factory floor.

Requirements

Research Background: Masters degree in CS Engineering or a related field alongside 3 years of industrial experience or a completed Ph.D. in computer vision. You are capable of transferring new research papers in working code and can optimize for industrial-grade reliability.

Core Technical Stack: Deep hands-on experience with 3D point cloud data and geometric libraries (e.g. Open3D) working with concepts like geometric registration shape reconstruction spatial queries and surface segmentation.

Coding Excellence: Strong proficiency in Python with agentic programming; CUDA C and/or Rust is an advantage.

Hands-On Attitude: Proven track record of deploying industrial vision systems and handling noisy temporal or large-scale data. Comfortable deploying systems on-site in the field yourself and continuously improving the hardware-software perception stack.

Soft Skills: Entrepreneurial drive solution-oriented mindset high agency and the ability to take direct responsibility in a fast-paced startup environment.

Benefits

Impact: The unique opportunity to rethink industrial automation for batch-size-1 with cutting-edge AI to maintain European manufacturing sovereignty.

Growth: Challenging tasks and impactful projects alongside experts in a high-growth VC-funded startup.

Ownership: opportunity to actively shape the companys technical direction; potential shares in the company.

Environment: A modern central workspace in Munich with a collaborative international culture.

Want to shape the future of industrial robotics
