- day-to-day System for Robotics project management
- various ROS development and  implementation activities on-site at the participating European SME's
- strong contribution to the ROS-I community, e.g. contributing to "ROS-Answers"
- contribution to ongoing research projects within our department "Cognitive Robotics"
- contribution to ROS applications for SME's through our RoboHouse research centre
- contribution to ROS applications in our Smart Advanced Manufacturing (eXtra Large) research centre for composite production automation

*What do we ask?*

The ideal candidate for this position has an MSc degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Computer Engineering or a related field. The candidate must have strong analytical skills and must be able to work at the intersection of several research domains. Additionally, important characteristics of a successful candidate are:

- communication skills (with business owners and technical employees of SMEs)
- experience with software quality and testing approaches
- programming experience: C++, Python
- experience with ROS
- affinity with industrial robotics and automation
- excellent written and verbal English skills

*What do we offer*

We offer the opportunity to do technically challenging research and development in a multi-disciplinary research group and together with interesting industrial partners. The appointment will be for a period of 1 year, with possibility of extension to 3 years. As an employee of the university you will receive a competitive salary (between approx.

Assistance with accommodation can be arranged.

*How to apply*

Please make sure to investigate the "ROS-Industrial" community before applying. Submit your application to Prof. Martijn Wisse (m.wisse at tudelft.nl) before **June the 25th**, 2018. Include a cover letter along with a detailed curriculum vitae. Prof. Wisse can also be contacted for more information about this vacancy.

*About 3mE and the Delft Robotics Institute* 

The department of Cognitive Robotics is part of the Faculty of 3mE, which trains committed engineering students, PhD candidates and post-doctoral researchers in groundbreaking scientific research in the fields of mechanical, maritime and materials engineering. The department of Cognitive Robotics is also one of the core groups of the TU Delft Robotics Institute, which is a quickly growing interdepartmental organization with over 150 robotics-oriented researchers from 6 departments ranging from Computer Science to Industrial Design Engineering.
