As a Senior Robotics Engineer at PickNik Robotics, you'll be our go-to expert for getting robot arms to do real work in the real world. You'll own manipulation solutions end-to-end on MoveIt Pro (http://picknik.ai/pro): motion planning, IK, reachability, collision avoidance, and grasping. You’ll help integrate the surrounding hardware and tune each arm until it executes the customer's task reliably and within cycle-time. You'll work directly with customers to take their toughest manipulation challenges from concept to deployment, on robots around the world (and in outer space!).
