You develop robust, ROS2 based algorithms and work closely with interdisciplinary teams and research partners to drive innovative solutions in underwater robotics.

What you can expect

• You design and implement algorithms for trajectory planning of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) with a focus on efficient close‑range inspection.

• You develop solutions for the inspection of critical underwater infrastructure (e.g. pipelines, offshore structures, energy and communication networks) and validate them for use under real‑world offshore conditions.

• You plan, support and evaluate simulations as well as maritime field trials and analyse relevant sensor and navigation data.

• You use modern software development environments and open‑source frameworks (in particular ROS2) as well as relevant libraries to implement and evaluate your algorithms.

• You work closely with universities and research institutions in the field of maritime robotics and autonomous systems and actively contribute to joint research and development projects.

• You have a degree in a technical field such as robotics, computer science, mechatronics, electrical engineering, or a comparable field, ideally with a focus on maritime robotics or AUV-based inspection.

• You have several years of professional experience in robotics, autonomous systems, or maritime robotics.

• You have in-depth knowledge of trajectory planning, navigation, and control, as well as solid programming skills—preferably in C++—and practical experience with ROS2-based systems.

• Ideally, you already have experience with AUVs, sensor fusion, or underwater navigation.

• You have a strong ownership mindset and excellent communication skills when working in interdisciplinary teams.

• You have a strong affinity for research and for collaborating with universities and research institutes.

Look forward to

• Development and career opportunities in a global, innovative and long-term oriented group of companies with family character
