About this role

Forward Deployed Robotics Engineer Pittsburgh | OnSite WHAT WE DO Gecko Robotics is helping the world's most important organizations ensure the availability, reliability, and sustainability of critical infrastructure. Gecko's complete and connected solutions combine wall-climbing robots, industry-leading sensors, and an AI-powered data platform to provide customers with a unique window into the current and future health of their physical assets. This enables real-time decision making to increase the efficiency and safety of operations, promote mission readiness, and protect the environment and civilization from the effects of infrastructure failure. ROLE AT A GLANCE WE ARE SEEKING A HIGHLY SKILLED ROBOTICS ENGINEER SPECIALIZING IN UNDERWATER SENSOR FUSION AND LOCALIZATION TO LEAD THE DEVELOPMENT AND DEPLOYMENT OF ROBUST NAVIGATION SYSTEMS FOR OUR HULL-CLEANING AND NDT INSPECTION ROBOTS. THE IDEAL CANDIDATE WILL HAVE DEEP EXPERTISE IN FUSING DATA FROM UNDERWATER SENSOR SUITES - INCLUDING IMUS, DVLS, PRESSURE SENSORS, ACOUSTIC POSITIONING SYSTEMS SUCH AS USBL/LBL, AND SONAR-BASED RELATIVE SENSING - TO PRODUCE ACCURATE AND RELIABLE STATE ESTIMATES IN GPS-DENIED, CLOSE-TO-STRUCTURE ENVIRONMENTS. YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SOLVING REAL LOCALIZATION PROBLEMS IN THE FIELD: COMPENSATING FOR DRIFT, HANDLING INTERMITTENT OR DELAYED AIDING, MANAGING SENSOR DROPOUTS AND ACOUSTIC OUTLIERS, AND DELIVERING PRAGMATIC SOLUTIONS THAT CAN BE DEPLOYED UNDER TIGHT TIMELINES. To be successful in this role, you must possess strong hands-on experience designing and implementing advanced filtering algorithms for real-world robotic systems, such as error-state Extended Kalman Filters (EKF), Unscented Kalman Filters (UKF), and Particle Filters where appropriate. You should be adept at deriving and maintaining both
