Robotics Navigation and Control Engineer
Slip Robotics, Atlanta, Georgia
The role
We are looking for a Robotics Navigation and Control Engineer to own the motion planning, path planning, and control systems on our autonomous mobile robots. Our robots navigate constrained spaces—inside trailers, across loading docks, and through active warehouse floors—carrying heavy loads with tight tolerances. This role is responsible for making that movement safe, precise, and reliable.
We need someone who has shipped navigation and controls software on real robots at real customer sites. You should have hands-on experience tuning controllers on physical hardware, dealing with wheel slip, load dynamics, and the gap between simulation and reality. Academic publications are great, but production deployment experience is what matters here.
