Proactive Global
Lead Software Engineer - Manipulation
Job Location
Farringdon, United Kingdom
Job Description
About us:
In a world where artificial intelligence opens up new horizons, our faith in its potential unveils a new outlook where, together, humans and machines build a new future filled with knowledge, inspiration, and incredible discoveries.
The development of a functional humanoid robot underpins an era of abundance and well-being where poverty will disappear, and people will be able to choose what they want to do.
We can imagine millions of bipedal robots doing more work than all human labour does today freeing people from the servitude of some repetitive and boring tasks that nobody likes to perform.
We believe that we have enough abundance to take care of everyone who is displaced. Eventually, providing a universal basic income will lead to the true evolution of our civilization.
Labor shortages loom, as the demands on our built environment rise. With the world's workforce increasingly moving away from undesirable tasks, the manufacturing, construction, and logistics industries critical to our daily lives are left exposed.
By deploying our general-purpose humanoid robots in environments deemed hazardous or monotonous, we envision a future where human well-being is safeguarded while closing the gaps in critical global labour needs.
Responsibilities
Lead the development of manipulation software, ensuring it meets the requirements for precision, reliability, and safety.

Experience with motion planning algorithms, such as RRT, PRM, or optimization-based methods.
Knowledge of perception techniques, including computer vision, depth sensing, and tactile sensing.
Familiarity with simulation tools and frameworks, such as Gazebo or V-REP.
Understanding of AI methodologies, including Transformers, for perception and decision-making tasks.
Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to address complex challenges in robotics.
Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
Knowledge of industry trends and advancements in robotic manipulation, AI, and automation.Benefits
