Staff Safety & Robotics Software Engineer (w/m/d)

You develop and implement safety-critical solutions for autonomous forklifts used in logistics and manufacturing environments. You translate safety concepts and system requirements into robust software architectures, Safety-PLC solutions, and industrial control systems. You design, develop, and maintain software components for robot control, motion regulation, and autonomous driving functions. You define and conduct verification and validation activities, including integration testing, fault injection testing, and system testing. You collaborate closely with functional safety experts, system architects, and software developers to ensure the safe and reliable operation of our systems. You act as an expert in safety-critical software and PLC development, support colleagues, and promote best engineering practices within the company.

You have a university degree in electrical engineering, mechatronics, computer science, robotics, software development, or a related field. You have at least 6 years of professional experience in safety-critical software development, industrial automation systems, robotics applications, or Safety-PLC solutions. You have in-depth experience with industrial safety systems or Safety PLCs; knowledge of Siemens S7 and TIA Portal or SICK Flexi Soft/Flexi Net is a significant advantage. You have proven experience in implementing and validating safety functions according to standards such as ISO 13849, IEC 61508, or IEC 62061. You have a good understanding of safety concepts, safety architectures, and requirements-driven development. You are familiar with verification, validation, requirements traceability, and V-model-based development processes. You have experience integrating sensors, actuators, industrial communication systems, and fieldbuses, ideally CANopen. You ideally have expertise in one or more of the following areas: SICK safety systems, ROS-based robotics systems, C++ or Python development, ros_control/ros2_control, Docker, or motion control frameworks. You appreciate clear technical documentation and professional use of version control systems. You have very good English language skills and good German language skills (minimum B1). You work predominantly on-site and ideally live in the Munich area or are willing to work on-site regularly.
