Junior Robotics Developer

Join Auve Tech as a Junior Robotics Developer

Do you enjoy engineering and innovation? Are you eager to grow your skills in autonomous vehicles and robotics? Join our team and help build the next generation of self-driving shuttles!

What you'll do

·      Contribute to robotics features for Auve Tech autonomous vehicles using C++ and ROS under mentorship.

·      Implement well-scoped tasks: write clean code, unit/integration tests, and assist with simulations and on-vehicle testing.

·      Help automate system configuration and basic health checks (scripts and tooling).

·      Support new vehicle setup alongside senior engineers and assist with bring-up and calibration.

·      Investigate and fix smaller bugs; triage issues from logs and telemetry.

·      Collaborate with analysts to evaluate feature performance (basic SQL/Python notebooks are a plus).

·      Participate in code reviews, maintain documentation, and follow our development processes.

What you bring

·      0–2 years of experience (internships, theses, hobby projects, or coursework in robotics/software).

·      Foundational C++ skills (or strong Python with willingness to grow into modern C++11/14/17).

·      Basic familiarity with Linux and Git; ability to build, run, and debug small projects.

·      Curiosity about ROS/ROS 2 and real-time/embedded concepts (prior exposure is a plus).

·      Problem-solving mindset, willingness to ask questions, and ability to work in a collaborative team.

·      Good spoken and written English.

·      Pursuing or holding a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or related field.

Nice to have

·      Hands-on ROS/ROS 2 experience (nodes, topics, launch files).

·      Basic Docker and CI/CD exposure (e.g., GitHub Actions/Jenkins).

·      Experience with sensors and hardware interfacing (LiDAR, cameras, CAN, serial).

·      Intro-level knowledge of machine learning, CUDA/GPU workflows, or signal/audio processing.

·      Comfort with dashboards and queries (Grafana/Flux/SQL) and performance profiling tools.

·      Networking fundamentals (TCP/UDP, VPNs) and understanding of Linux networking tools.

Why join us

·      Supportive, international team with dedicated mentorship and onboarding plan.

·      Modern equipment, real vehicles, and simulation environments to learn fast.

·      Meaningful work on cutting-edge autonomous driving projects with real-world impact.

·      Opportunities to grow into mid-level roles as you take on more ownership.
