Staff Navigation Engineer (m/f/d)

Über diese Stelle

<h2><strong>About The Role</strong></h2> <p><span data-contrast="auto">At ARX Robotics, you will help develop the navigation system that enables autonomous ground vehicles to operate safely and reliably in complex off-road environments. As a Staff Navigation Engineer, you will play a key role in shaping how robotic platforms plan, adapt, and execute missions across unpredictable terrain and demanding real-world conditions.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559738":240,"335559739":240}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">You will work across autonomy, perception, localization, and platform engineering teams to turn advanced navigation capabilities into deployable systems.
