Robotics Software Engineer

Job Description

JD   – Robotics Software Engineer

Location :   Pune

Experience :   1-3   Y ears

Education :   B.E. /   B. Tech   in   robotics and automation   or related field

Employment Type :   Fulltime

Reports To :  Head of Robotics

About the Company :

We founded Sakar Robotics to collapse fragmented point solutions into a single extensible mobile manipulation platform. Traditional automation requires bespoke integration per workflow—slow to deploy, rigid to evolve. We built a composable stack where   perception, autonomy,   manipulation   and orchestration cooperate natively.

Guided by field feedback across regulated, high‑mix and throughput‑critical domains, we iterate on production reality—not lab abstractions—building durable leverage for customers.

Our mission is to deliver a unified robotics platform that can be rapidly configured to execute diverse workflows—reducing time‑to‑value, elevating safety, and embedding continuous improvement loops into daily operations.

Role Summary

As a Robotics Software Engineer, you will design, develop, and integrate core robotic software modules using ROS and Python.   You’ll   be responsible for   building and   optimizing   real-time robotic applications that bring   perception, navigation, and control systems together into production-ready solutions.

Key   Responsibilities :

• Develop and   maintain   robotic software using ROS2 frameworks.
• Write modular, production-grade code in Python (and C++ when   required).
• Implement and optimize motion planning, navigation, and control algorithms.
• Integrate sensors such as LiDAR, cameras, and IMUs for localization and mapping on simulation / hardware.
• Collaborate with hardware and autonomy teams for end-to-end system integration.
• Test, debug, and   validate   algorithms in both simulated and on-field environments.
