Robotics Navigation Engineer

Job Title: Robotics Navigation Engineer Experience: 2 to 4 years Location: Mundwa, Kalyani Nagar, Pune Work Mode: Work from Office (Monday to Friday) Job Overview Seeking a highly skilled Robotics Navigation Engineer experienced in planner and controller plugin development for NAV2 , focusing on motion planning, path optimization, and control tuning for mobile robotic systems. The ideal candidate should be proficient in robot kinematics, AI-powered navigation, and SLAM techniques (non-odometric). Key Responsibilities 1. Motion & Path Planning Developed and deployed real-time path planning algorithms such as A* , Dijkstra , and Hybrid A* . Specialized in route optimization and dynamic trajectory adjustments for high-complexity environments. 2. Planner Plugin Development for NAV2 Built custom global and local planner plugins for NAV2 . Enhanced navigation efficiency by improving planners like Hybrid A* , TEB , and RPP . 3. Controller Plugin Development for NAV2 Engineered controller plugins using SMAC , PID , and MPC strategies. Integrated EKF-based control for responsive feedback and system stability. 4. Sensor Fusion & Localization Led integration of LiDAR, GPS, IMU, Radar, and Stereo Cameras into SLAM-based localization. Applied multi-sensor fusion to achieve high-accuracy localization across varied terrains. 5. ROS2 & Simulation Frameworks Designed end-to-end ROS2 navigation stacks with modular behavior trees and waypoint-following logic. Used Gazebo, Isaac Sim , and Omniverse for simulation-based validation before deployment. 6. Algorithm Development & System Architecture Worked on Sim2Real translation for deploying simulation-trained algorithms to real-world scenarios. Created decision-making engines with probabilistic motion models and AI-driven behavior frameworks . 7. Research & Documentation Authored API-level documentation for planners, controllers, and SLAM pipelines. Actively tracked advancements in NAV2 , adaptive control systems, and AI-based navigation.
