[ros-users] Job : Robotics positions at Yujin Robot

[Daniel Stonier]

We are looking for a creative, passionate individual to add to our
team to work on a variety
of projects built around RoS (http://www.ros.org/wiki/) at Yujin Robot
in Seoul, Korea.

Given the location in Korea, it is expected most applicants will be
seeking a chance to gain
experience in robotics development (and possibly also adventure!) for
a short tenure, and we are happy to negotiate
1-2 year contracts with the option for extension at a later date.
Yujin also offers a unique situation which can
make the transition to a Korean working lifestyle a little easier than
normal. The CTO previously
worked for Motorola in the United States for ten years and
subsequently is very outward looking.
They also have experience in hiring/working with foreigners and the
control group in particular
has a very open, easy going approach. More details below.
