Germany, Riederich
Tech Lead — Robot Systems & Integration (human) in Riederich, Deutschland is listed on Jobeax. Browse 40,000+ vacancies available.
Every NEURA robot runs on a foundation of systems integration work: the real-time OS that guarantees microsecond scheduling on bare metal, the hardware interface layer that abstracts every sensor and actuator, the motion planning pipeline that generates the trajectories robots execute, and the industrial device servers that connect robots to factory automation systems. As Staff Engineer for our Robot Systems & Integration cluster, you own the technical architecture of that foundation.
This is a pure individual contributor role. You carry no people management responsibility. Your authority is technical: you set architectural direction, hold design decisions within your scope, and resolve the cross-layer integration conflicts that arise when OS scheduling, middleware, hardware drivers, and motion planning pipelines all meet at the same seam.
You will provide technical leadership to engineers across platform guild and product-anchor roles. You write code, lead design reviews, author technical RFCs, and maintain current hands-on expertise. This is not an architecture-only position.
Own the RT scheduling policy that all software in this cluster must respect: priority assignment standards, memory locking requirements, and interrupt latency contracts for 1 kHz control loops and 500 Hz state estimation
Own the co-review protocol at the boundary between RT OS scheduling and the EtherCAT master — any board support package change must pass a joint latency budget review before merge; you own this process alongside the Robot Communication cluster lead
Ensure the unified compute platform engineers have clear RT OS architecture guidance and that every robot platform profile's timing budget is validated after each hardware revision
Own the motion planning pipeline architectural direction: planner selection criteria, planning stack configuration standards, and atomic skill primitive API design and evolution across all robot platforms
Enforce the shared skill primitive library: patterns surfaced from product-specific stream work must go through design review before being forked platform-specifically; you enforce this at code review
Define the server/protocol boundary in industrial integration: the protocol stack belongs to the Robot Communication cluster; the server layer — command dispatch, state machine integration, hardware interfaces — belongs here; you arbitrate when server architecture and protocol constraints conflict
Own the end-effector server architecture: gripper lifecycle management, tool change sequencing, and the hardware interface contracts that motion planning and the operational state machine depend on
Lead quarterly cluster knowledge days: peer-to-peer problem exchange where every engineer brings one unsolved and one solved problem; output is a shared library ticket or design document, never slides
Write design documents that reduce knowledge concentration; mentor Senior engineers toward Staff level; drive cluster hiring sourcing
Robot systems integration depth (at least two of the following, in depth)
Embedded Linux systems integration at the RT level: Yocto BSP development, RT kernel tuning (Xenomai or PREEMPT_RT), RT scheduling design, and WCET analysis on production robot hardware — not simulation
ROS2 (or equivalent) hardware interface architecture: e.g. ros2_control hardware interface lifecycle, Nav2 and SLAM integration on physical mobile platforms, diagnostics framework design
Motion planning pipeline for production manipulation: MoveIt2 planning stack, OMPL planner configuration and tuning, manipulation primitive library design — deployed on real robot hardware, not only in simulation
Industrial device integration at the server layer: hardware interface design for fieldbus-connected devices, gripper lifecycle management server architecture, functional safety constraints in state machine dispatch
Real-time skill execution or soft-RT scheduling: deterministic scheduling for action dispatch, worst-case latency analysis, RT-aware behaviour tree implementation in a production context
Systems integration breadth
Sufficient understanding across the full stack to review MRs and arbitrate design decisions spanning OS, middleware, motion planning, and device integration domains simultaneously
Demonstrated experience debugging cross-layer failures at the OS–middleware–hardware boundary: RT scheduling overruns, ROS2 (or other middleware) executor latency issues under 1 kHz RT constraints, hardware interface failures during robot bring-up
C++17/20 systems programming: lock-free patterns, RAII, RT-safe memory management, 1 kHz control loop discipline
Staff-level leadership (mandatory)
Demonstrated cross-team architectural impact: your design decisions changed how multiple teams work, not just your own domain
RFC or design document leadership with cross-team reach: you have resolved integration conflicts between teams and had your proposal adopted as the standard
Mentoring track record: at least one engineer you have materially accelerated toward a senior or staff-equivalent level
8+ years of hands-on engineering experience with a strong robot systems integration focus
Nice to have
RT OS kernel-level experience combined with ROS2 (other other middleware) depth — candidates who have debugged failures spanning both layers are rare and highly valued
Experience shipping a motion planning pipeline from development through to production on a manipulator or mobile manipulator
Industrial functional safety background at the software architecture level
Real-time execution engine implementation experience (not just usage)
Open-source contributions to robot systems infrastructure: ros2_control, MoveIt2, Nav2, Xenomai, or equivalent
