SeniorAutonomyEngineer(SLAM&Navigation)

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further. ABOUT THE ROLE We're hiring a Senior Autonomy Engineer (SLAM & Navigation) to join our team. In this role, you will bridge the gap between classical spatial geometry and next-generation AI. You will lead the design and development of robust state estimation, long-term mapping, and localisation loops, with a specific focus on integrating modern machine learning techniques and foundation geometry models into our core navigation stack. Your work will ensure our robots possess rock-solid spatial awareness and execute highly reliable trajectories over extended deployments in complex, real-world environments. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Design and scale robust SLAM pipelines that maintain highly accurate localisation and state estimation across dynamic physical spaces. - Integrate foundation geometry models and modern ML techniques into the localisation loop to enhance traditional spatial tracking, data association, and visual odometry. - Architect and maintain robust long-term mapping systems that enable robots to autonomously update, manage, and scale spatial maps across changing environments over time. - Build and scale auto-labeling data pipelines that leverage foundation geometry models to generate high-fidelity spatial ground truth for downstream ML training. - Bridge classical geometry with deep learning architectures, building hybrid systems that map raw sensor data into globally consistent metric trajectories. - Deploy and benchmark spatial AI software directly on physical robot hardware, ensuring deterministic, ultra-low latency execution on edge compute. - Translate cutting-edge spatial AI
