(Senior) Application Software Engineer (m/f/d)

About the Role

At RobCo, we develop AI-powered robotic systems that make industrial processes more autonomous, efficient, and scalable.

Responsibilities

• Integration & Interfaces: You integrate complex peripheral devices and interfaces (e.g., cameras, measurement and testing systems, controllers, ERP systems) into our robot cells for customer projects. You develop, test, and maintain the necessary software integrations and ensure reliable long‑term operation in the field.
• Standardization & Scaling: You establish standards for the universal integration of industrial peripherals into our ecosystem to enable seamless inclusion in our product, simplify processes, and efficiently handle recurring requests.
• Holistic Project Work & Support: You run projects from the idea over a proof of concept to a stable customer solution. As a technical point of contact, you also support our field team with troubleshooting, either remotely or on‑site.
• Documentation & Knowledge Transfer: You document solutions comprehensively, create how‑tos for technicians, and ensure that acquired knowledge is readily available within the team.
• Innovation & Consulting: You introduce new technologies and concepts, evaluate external components, and are not afraid to take unconventional paths to optimally fulfill both internal and customer requests.

Qualifications

• You have a degree in Computer Science, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, or a comparable qualification.
• You have excellent knowledge of Python and experience with hardware‑level programming (e.g., in C or C++).
• You have experience in integrating and controlling industrial equipment, ideally within an automation or robotics environment.
• You find creative solutions where others give up, think in systems, have a hands‑on mentality, and do not get caught up in theory.
• You enjoy abstraction, clear and structured communication, and possess the ability to explain technical problems to non‑technicians.
• You actively seek collaboration in cross‑functional teams across departmental boundaries and gladly take on an interface role between stakeholders.
• You are open to on‑site customer visits and find it exciting to deploy software in real‑world environments.
• You bring a passion for pragmatic and efficient problem‑solving, a desire for pioneering work, and the drive to genuinely make things work.

Benefits

• Develop modular, software‑defined robotics solutions with us that set new standards in automation.
• Help build robots equipped with state‑of‑the‑art AI that perceive their environment, analyze data, and make intelligent decisions in real time.
• As part of a very dynamic and fast‑growing scale‑up, you will take responsibility from day one, drive your own projects, and see the direct impact of your work.
• Flat hierarchies, open communication, and regular 360 feedback enable fast decisions and support your professional and personal development.
• Work across Germany with our subsidized Wellpass membership.
• Flexible working hours, a modern office, and, depending on the role, the option to work from home.
• Regular team events — relaxed beer & pizza nights on the rooftop terrace to shared experiences on ski trips or at Oktoberfest.
