About usBleu Robotics is an AI company developing universal AI software for the deployment of advanced robots , humanoids, mobile manipulators, and industrial arms, in real factories. The convergence of humanoid robotics and modern AI is one of the most significant technical opportunities of the decade, and most of the work today still happens in research settings. We are building the software layer required to bring it into operational use.We have a strong ambition to become the next Microsoft to run on every industrial humanoid. We have closed our pre-seed round with Top-tier fund to deploy our robot in Tier 1 manufacturing facilities.We are looking for deeply passionate scientists who can help us push the frontier and build a major lab in our physical AI.Our visionTo enable a robot to learn a new industrial task from a few demonstrations and operate autonomously, with under one hour between the start of the demonstration and the start of deployment.This objective shapes our roadmap and every technical decision we make.The roleWe are hiring Robotics Software Engineers focused on integration to join the engineering team that owns our end-to-end AI stack. Your work will ensure that perception, learning, orchestration, and robot interfaces function as one coherent system on real hardware, across a diverse set of robotic platforms.The role is based in Paris, with occasional on-site work at customer facilities — typically one concentrated week per month for deployment, commissioning, and production debugging.BackgroundWe are equally interested in two kinds of background:robotics engineer with experience in deploying robots in real factories or developing robots for real factories (e.g., worked for a robot manufacturer or for a startup that deployed their robot in factories).robotics engineer with experience in academic or industrial labs, working on deploying and integrating machine learning models on real robots.Experience with humanoid robots is appreciated but not required.ResponsibilitiesDesign and maintain the ROS 2 architecture that connects our AI stack: nodes, services, lifecycles, launch configurationsImplement controllers for a diverse set of robotic platforms — humanoids, mobile manipulators, arms — bridging our stack to each platform’s interfacesContainerize and deploy the full stack using Docker, including on embedded and edge targetsBring up new robot platforms: integrate vendor SDKs, validate behavior, ensure reliable operationBuild and maintain test infrastructure and validation pipelines for system-level integrationDebug across hardware, firmware, and software boundaries — the issues that only appear when everything runs togetherDeploy and commission software on-site at customer facilitiesReduce the time from demonstration to deployment by eliminating manual steps and integration frictionOwn end-to-end system reliability: logging, observability, reproducibility, and tooling for extended autonomous operationThe teamThe engineering team is organized around three focus areas with multiple engineers each: Integration (this role), Vision & Perception, and Robot Learning. Early hires will help shape engineering practices, hiring, and culture.Required qualificationsMaster’s degree in robotics, or equivalent hands-on experience with physical robots. PhD with hand-on experience are also welcomed.Strong working knowledge of ROS 2Proficiency with Docker in robotics contextsStrong Python development skillsHands-on experience deploying software on physical robotic systemsHands-on experience debugging across hardware, firmware, and software boundariesComfortable working in Linux environments with Git and CI/CD toolingProfessional proficiency in English (internal working language)Professional proficiency in French (required for customer deployments)Availability to travel ~1 week per month, primarily within FrancePreferred qualificationsThe strongest candidates will combine hands-on robotics fluency with experience across several of the following:Humanoid robotsMultiple robotic platforms (arms, mobile bases, etc.)Real-time systems in a robotics contextIndustrial or manufacturing environmentsC++ in performance-sensitive contextsIntegration of vendor SDKs and bringing up new platformsA leading robotics research lab (academic or industrial)Robotics competitions (RoboCup, Eurobot, etc.)What we offerA clear, ambitious research mission with measurable real-world impactA diverse fleet of advanced robots, including humanoids, on which to run your researchResearch that ships: your algorithms run on real machines in real factoriesTight collaboration with engineering teams that take your work to productionSignificant ownership of the research agenda as an early member of the teamA focused, technically strong team and a serious engineering cultureEnglish-speaking working environment, no French requiredFair compensation + equity Find Jobs in France on Arbeitnow
