Senior Robotics Engineer | SLAM, Localization & Mapping- Start Up good run way, strong funding, influential size team

Senior Robotics Engineer | SLAM, Localization & MappingHybrid, New York City (relocation support available)$160k-$210k base + equityBuilt and deployed a LiDAR SLAM system?I'm working with a robotics company solving some of the toughest localization, mapping and sensor fusion challenges in real-world outdoor environments.This is an opportunity to own meaningful robotics problems from concept through deployment. Rather than working on isolated research projects or a small piece of a much larger organisation, you'll help shape the localisation, mapping and sensor fusion systems that sit at the heart of the product. The team is small, highly technical and moving quickly, giving you the chance to influence technical decisions, tackle genuinely difficult real-world challenges and see your work create immediate value for customers operating critical infrastructure at scale.This isn't a computer vision role.This is for an engineer who has owned localization, mapping, SLAM or state estimation systems and wants to apply them to real-world robotics problems at scale.You'll join a small, highly technical team working on:✅ LiDAR SLAM in GPS-degraded environments✅ Localization and state estimation✅ Multi-sensor fusion (LiDAR, cameras, IMU, GNSS)✅ Point cloud registration, alignment and mapping✅ Intrinsic and extrinsic sensor calibration✅ Large-scale 3D reconstruction and scene generation✅ Production robotics systems used daily in the fieldWe're particularly interested in engineers who have:• Built and deployed SLAM systems• Deep experience in localization, mapping or state estimation• LiDAR-based perception and point cloud processing expertise• Sensor fusion experience across multiple modalities• Strong C++ and Python skills• Experience shipping robotics systems into production• 5+ years in robotics, autonomy, localization, mapping or perceptionEspecially relevant backgrounds include:• Autonomous Vehicles• Robotics & Autonomy• Localization & Navigation• Mapping & Reconstruction• Rail, Mining, Construction or Field Robotics• Drone or Mobile Robotics• Sensor Fusion & EstimationIf you've worked on localization, mapping, SLAM or sensor fusion systems in the real world, I'd love to speak with you.
