The Robotics and Automation Unit at Eurecat Technology Center (Barcelona) seeks a highly motivated

AI-Robotics Software Engineer

with strong hands-on experience in

software architecture, quality coding processes, AI deployment stacks, and model fine-tuning . This position specifically targets applied R&D; in

Cognitive Robotics , emphasizing robot cognition, autonomous decision-making, and natural human-robot interaction. Our primary focus is on developing the robot's "brain"—enhancing its capabilities in perception, reasoning, planning, learning, behaviour orchestration, and natural interaction. We leverage advanced AI technologies and methodologies, including

semantic perception, open-world semantics, physical and spatial reasoning, world modeling, knowledge representation , and multimodal AI architectures involving Large Language Models ( LLMs ), Vision-Language Models ( VLMs ), Vision-Language-Action Models ( VLAs ), and emerging technologies like agentic AI. Our team boasts nearly 20 years of experience specializing in

Service and Industrial Robotics . Our mission is to push the boundaries of robotic autonomy and intelligence, enabling increasingly sophisticated robotic behaviors across sectors including

assistive robotics, healthcare, adaptable manufacturing , logistics, inspection, and field robotics (e.g., agriculture). Our collaborative environment encourages creativity, interdisciplinary teamwork, and innovation to achieve impactful solutions for society. Explore our research lines and projects:
