We are a robotics and AI company building intelligent, adaptable systems that solve problems traditional automation never could. From Barcelona, our mission is to create a generation-defining company leading the robotics revolution. By joining us, you will have the chance to do the most meaningful work of your life, setting a new standard for industrial automation and driving breakthroughs with general reach, while being surrounded by a focused, talent-dense team that shares this ambition and is here to win.

We recently closed the largest robotics Series A in Europe's history, and we're looking for the top 0.01% of talent to take on that mission with us, and build the biggest company in the world. Your roleWe are looking for a Software Engineer, Robotics Deployment to take a working robotic use case from the bench to real production plants, and then own it. Once a pilot works, someone has to run it in a customer's plant and scale it to more robots and more sites.

It also frees the original developers to start the next use case. You will inherit a Python and ROS2 system that is already built: dozens of nodes, configuration per environment, and internal packages you use through their documentation. In your first month you work next to the people who wrote it, fixing bugs and shipping small features.

By month two you own subsystems like vision or metrics, join the plant installation and run the final on-site validation on your own. You lead the scale-up, decide what gets industrialised and act as the customer's technical counterpart for the software. This is a software role that lives in plants.

If you write solid Python and get productive fast in someone else's codebase, we'll teach you the rest.



What We're Looking ForAn engineering degree (Software, Computer, Robotics, Mechatronics, Industrial, Electrical or similar) or equivalent experience, with solid day-to-day Python. You're comfortable with Git and Linux, and you write tests.

You reproduce a problem before you fix it and measure before you say it works.

Fluent

Spanish and good English, a driving licence and willingness to travel frequently to customer plants. Computer vision, industrial robotics, PLCs or control systems.

Experience deploying or supporting systems on real hardware or in production plants. Performance data analysis or robot simulation tools. The opportunity ahead of us is enormous, and we're going all in to capture it.

You'd rather understand a system and make it grow than rewrite it from scratch. Main ResponsibilitiesOwn a robotic use case once it leaves the development team, from the bench pilot to production plants. Fix bugs and ship features in a large Python and ROS2 codebase, with small changes that respect its architecture.

Diagnose issues on running systems using logs, ROS2 topics and recorded data. Prepare and validate plant environments, then run on-site validation and bring back a report with metrics and incidents the team can act on. Lead the scale-up to more robots and more plants, and decide what gets industrialised.

Manage the use case backlog and act as the customer's technical counterpart for the software. The chance to own a live robotic system in real customer plants within your first months. Take-home exercise in pure Python, no ROS2 needed.

It takes around 4 to 6 hours of work, and you have one week to send it. One-day bootcamp at our offices with the team, working on a simulated robotic cell.
