Principal Robotics Systems Engineer

We are seeking a Principal Robotics Systems Engineer to lead the development of communication architectures and embedded hardware integration for multi-agent robotic systems at AI.DA, Strategic Technology Centre (STC)'s Next-gen Edge AI & Robotics Lab (NEAR). This role is central to bridging the gap between high-level AI algorithms and physical platforms (UGVs, aerial systems, and mobile manipulators). You will be responsible for ensuring low-latency data exchange, deterministic embedded performance, and robust electrical stability across diverse robotic fleets, enabling coordinated autonomous operations in research and field environments.

Distributed Communications & Networking

• High-Bandwidth Mesh Networking:
  Design and implement wireless communication layers using modern middleware such as
  Zenoh
  or
  CycloneDDS
  , optimized for multi-agent data exchange in bandwidth-constrained or unstable environments.
• Deterministic Connectivity:
