About the Role

At Peer Robotics, we're building robots that navigate real warehouses. No QR codes, no floor stickers, no infrastructure changes. Just robots that see, plan, and move alongside people from day one.

We're looking for a Robotics Engineer to join our Pune team and work on the software stack that powers the Peer3000 autonomous pallet jack. This is an entry-level role built for someone who has gotten their hands dirty with real robots, someone who has debugged a failing sensor, tuned a simulation that kept crashing, or spent a weekend getting robots to do what it was supposed to.

You don't need to have done everything. But you need to have done something real and you need to be genuinely excited about doing more of it.

What You'll Do

• Build and maintain ROS 2 nodes and packages across the navigation and perception stack
• Tune and test navigation behaviors, local planners, costmaps, recovery behaviors in both simulation and on hardware
• Set up and maintain simulation environments in Gazebo or Isaac Sim for algorithm development and regression testing
• Work on sensor calibration from camera intrinsics/extrinsics, LiDAR-camera alignment, to IMU integration
• Contribute to vision-based perception modules: obstacle detection, pallet recognition, and scene understanding
• Debug real robot issues: read logs, understand sensor data, isolate failures, ship fixes
• Collaborate closely with the navigation and hardware teams to move features from sim to production
• Travel to customer sites, facilities, and partner facilities to perform field testing and validation

What We're Looking For

Experience

• 2–3 years of hands-on experience in robotics software development (industry, research, robocon, or a strong mix of both)
• Proven experience with ROS 2: you've built nodes, written launch files, worked with transforms and topic plumbing, and know your way around foxglove and ROS2 bag
• At least one area of meaningful depth: navigation (Nav2, costmaps, planners), computer vision (camera pipelines, object detection), simulation (Gazebo, Isaac Sim), or sensor calibration
