Robotics Lead

Location: Brussels, Belgium

Employment: Permanent/full-time

Language: English required; French is a plus

The Role:

An exciting opportunity to become the first Robotics hire within a growing scale-up company and take ownership of building a new robotics department from the ground up.

You will play a key role in defining the robotics strategy, architecture and technology stack, while also remaining highly hands-on technically. As the function grows, you will have the opportunity to build and lead a wider robotics team.

This is a role for someone who enjoys moving quickly, building from scratch and turning ideas into working robotic systems.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Define the overall robotics system architecture and technical roadmap
  • Lead the selection and integration of robotics hardware, sensors and compute platforms
  • Develop end-to-end robotic manipulation pipelines
  • Work across perception, planning, control and learning
  • Develop and deploy imitation learning and reinforcement learning approaches
  • Explore and implement the latest developments in VLA, VLM and Embodied AI
  • Work with bi-arm / bimanual robotic systems
  • Build, test and iterate rapidly on real robotic systems
  • Take ownership of projects from initial concept through to deployment
  • Help shape the robotics team, hiring future engineers and defining technical processes

Technical Background:

  • Robotics / robotic manipulation
  • Python and C++
  • ROS / ROS2
  • PyTorch / deep learning
  • Kinematics
  • Reinforcement learningVLA / VLM / Embodied AI
  • Motion planning and control
  • Robotic arms, grippers and sensor integration

What We’re Looking For:

  • Proven experience developing and deploying robotic systems
  • Experience taking robotics projects from architecture through to working prototype
  • Strong understanding of modern robot learning and manipulation
  • Ideally, hands-on experience with bi-arm / bimanual robotics
  • A genuine interest in the latest developments across robotics and AI
  • Startup / fast-builder mentality - comfortable working autonomously, experimenting and solving problems from first principles
  • Ability and ambition to eventually build and lead a robotics team
  • Fluent English; French is advantageous
