AJ Connect has partnered with one of the fastest growing robotics start-ups, which is looking for a full-time Senior Robotics Software Engineer to join their rapidly growing team at their offices based in the West End of Glasgow. The start-up has won most of the biggest competitions in Scotland and has raised over £1.6m in funding from private investors and public funds.
You will be working on software systems to run directly on the robotics platform as well as the software infrastructure to support the running of that robot. This will include discussions with stakeholders to define software requirements, planning projects to deliver proposed software solutions and then executing these projects.
The company develops a robotic lawn mower for large terrains. The developed product, empowered by a patented mapping and positioning technology, is able to cover vastly larger areas than currently possible, ensures the highest level of safety and cutting quality and requires minimal installation. The company mostly targets business clients, such as golf clubs, Universities, and city councils.
You will be part of a company that fosters a collaborative environment where criticism and new ideas are openly encouraged in order to drive innovation and quality. Development is fast paced, allowing for creative problem solving to make sure business objectives are met.
This role will run in parallel to the other senior engineer roles and you will report directly to the CEO and CTO. You will be working with other software-based disciplines, as well as mechanical and electronics engineers. If you are motivated, driven and looking for a place to grow, this is the job for you.
