Open Source Robotics Engineer

Make Rerun even better for the robotics community

At Rerun, we’re building a new multimodal data stack for Physical AI. Large parts of the physical-world economy will be transformed by these technologies, and we're building the data infrastructure and tools that enable it to happen. Rerun’s open source project focuses on visualizing and handling multimodal logs and is already loved by some of the best teams in the world. We are an open core company, so most of what you’ll build with us will be open source, directly benefiting the robotics community.

We’re looking for a passionate, self-directed Open Source Robotics Engineer who deeply empathizes with roboticists’ needs, and loves to both build and engage the community. Your mission will be to make Rerun more approachable and useful to the robotics community through building integrations, end-to-end examples, tutorials, and other educational material.

What You’ll Work On

As an Open Source Robotics Engineer at Rerun, you’ll:

• Build and own Rerun’s coming ROS 2 bridge and related tools.

• Build and maintain integrations to other robotics projects like LeRobot, Nvidia Isaac Sim, and MuJoCo.

• Build cool and educational robotics examples and tutorials that show how to use Rerun to get more done faster.

• Engage with and grow the open-source robotics community around Rerun, and interact with our customers.

• Add robotics features and plug-ins to the core Rerun project.

We would love if you have

• A high-agency ownership driven mindset. You make things happen and if you see more needs to be done you do that too.

• A helpful attitude and a bias towards communicating with and bringing along the community.

• At least 2 years of professional experience working with real robots (more experience is great, but drive and ability are what we value most).

• Strong Python skills, and a good foundation in both C++ and Rust

• Real-world experience with ROS 2 and an understanding of its nuances.

• Cool robotics projects to show off and a track record of online communication.

Nice-to-Haves

• Contributions to open-source projects related to robotics, computer vision, machine learning, or data visualization.

• Familiarity with machine learning, MLOps, and modern imitation and end-2-end learning approaches in robotics.

How we work at Rerun

• We're a remote company headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden.

• We meet up in person for a week roughly once a quarter

• The team you'll join currently has members in European and US-east timezones

  • Everyone is available for synchronous work between 1:30–5:00pm CET.
    Given our current team distribution, candidates outside of Europe or the US will be considered on a case-by-case basis to ensure there’s enough overlap for effective collaboration.

• We've put together an uncommonly talented tech team, value agency and helpfulness highly, and expect everyone to take broad responsibility for what they build

• We offer competitive cash and equity compensation, six weeks paid vacation, and whatever hardware and software you need to do your job

If you’re passionate about robotics, open-source, and love bringing complex data to life, we’d love to hear from you!
