Our team believes that advances in AI, perception and simulation will redefine what’s possible for industrial robotics in the near future – with software and data at the core. Our mission is to make industrial robotics intelligent, accessible, and usable for millions more businesses, entrepreneurs, and developers. We are a dynamic team of engineers, roboticists, designers, and technologists who are passionate about unlocking the creative and economic potential of industrial robotics. ## Role Our perception technology, in particular pose estimation, is a key differentiator of the Intrinsic platform and enables our users to build flexible automation solutions. The perception experience team builds tools that significantly improve developer productivity when adding perception to an application, from camera onboarding and calibration to training and running a pose estimation algorithm. We are seeking a highly skilled Software Engineer to join our dynamic perception team working at the heart of Flowstate, our first product built on the Intrinsic platform. In this role, you will be responsible for developing new user interfaces focused on perception user journeys, improving existing user journeys, and integration with the rest of the Intrinsic platform and backend APIs. You will develop the full stack of web interfaces for end-to-end perception tasks, ensuring a cohesive and user-friendly experience throughout our platform. The interfaces you build will shape our product and the role of the human in it. You are excited by the prospect of owning critical pieces of our user experience (including collaborating with the Product and Design teams, and developing tests). You are excited to work with real cameras and robotic hardware. You have excellent development skills across the web application stack and are excited to be part of a world-class, innovative, frontend team. How your work moves the mission forward - Develop intuitive and innovative perception interfaces in collaboration with Product, Design, and Engineering teams. - Own individual workflows or web UIs critical for Intrinsic’s perception product(s). - Collaborate closely with product, design, and cross-functional engineering teams to deliver cohesive and delightful user experiences. - Contribute to the end-to-end tech stack, integrating frontend with backend systems to enable seamless human-robot interaction. ## Skills you will need to be successful - At least Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience. - At least 5 years of professional experience in frontend web application development, with proficiency in modern JavaScript/TypeScript and experience with a major web framework (e.g., Angular, React). - Experience in backend development (C++, Python or similar) required. - Willingness to learn or familiarity with 3D computer vision, registration techniques, or similar perception topics. - Experience with building visually-rich web applications. - Excellent collaboration skills, particularly when working with product and design teams. - Good written and verbal communication skills in English. ## Skills that will differentiate your candidacy - Experience with 3D graphics and visualization libraries (e.g., Three.js, WebGL) in a web context. - Experience in building human-machine interfaces for robotics or perception or complex industrial systems. - Experience with user studies or gathering user feedback to iterate on prototypes. The base salary for this full-time position is between €128,000 - €131,200 (EUR) + 15% bonus + equity + benefits. Your recruiter will share more about the specific salary range + bonus + equity for your targeted location and role during the hiring process.
