You will build the core software enabling flexible industrial automation to perform autonomous production processes. From grasping and motion planning to behavior trees and perception, you will own the stack that bridges simulation and reality. Join a senior engineering team deploying intelligent robots into real factories, solving the labor crisis for manufacturers across Europe.
Robotics Software Engineer at Sunrise Robotics Corporation
Most robotics software never leaves the lab, but Sunrise Robotics Corporation is already live on factory floors for supercar and electronics manufacturing. You will bridge the sim-to-real gap using Python and ROS2, working alongside a senior team from Ocado and Eurecat. Fully remote within CET ±3 with regular team meetups in Ljubljana, this is your chance to ship intelligent agents that solve real-world industrial challenges today.

Sunrise Robotics is a robotics company that develops intelligent, autonomous robotic cells to transform manufacturing processes, enhancing flexibility, scalability, and efficiency. They address challenges like labor shortages and supply chain risks by combining advanced AI software with versatile hardware, enabling quick deployment and adaptation for various industrial applications.
What you will do
- Develop production-quality software across the robotics stack, including motion planning, manipulation, and multi-robot coordination using Python and ROS2.
- Close the simulation-to-reality gap by building behaviors that run consistently in both NVIDIA Isaac Sim and on physical dual-arm robotic hardware.
- Collaborate with AI and mechanical teams to integrate complex components into reliable, end-to-end systems deployed across diverse customer sites.
Who this is a fit for
- Proven experience shipping production software to physical robotic arms (such as ABB or KUKA) with a deep understanding of kinematics and grasping.
- Expert-level Python skills and extensive experience with ROS2, Docker, behavior trees, and modern CI/CD workflows within distributed engineering teams.
- Strong academic background (Master’s or PhD) in Robotics or Computer Science, combined with the practical intuition to troubleshoot real-world hardware failures.
Why this role is remarkable
- Ship code to robots already operating in factories for supercar and battery manufacturing, moving beyond research projects to solve real-world industrial challenges.
- Join a powerhouse team of ~30 led by PhD robotics experts (ex-Ocado) and backed by $8.5M from top-tier investors like Plural and Seedcamp.
- Enjoy a high-impact remote culture within CET ±3, featuring competitive compensation, early-stage equity, and regular team retreats to Ljubljana, Slovenia.
