Design, develop, and deploy advanced algorithms for Mujin’s real-time industrial robotic systems.
About this role
The Robotics Algorithm Engineer designs and implements robust algorithms for 3D bin packing, container and trailer loading, and space optimization. The work aims to maximize available space while complying with physical and operational constraints.
The role applies spatial reasoning, 3D geometry, collision detection, and geometric data structures to crates, pallets, and container interiors. Packing logic is integrated with MujinOS real-time motion planning and digital-twin workflows so that downstream robotic behavior can use the resulting decisions.
The engineer collaborates with robotics, perception, and systems teams. Algorithms must align with robot kinematics and motion planning while accounting for real-world conditions such as weight, stacking rules, fragile items, and rotation limits.
Responsibilities include profiling, testing, and optimizing algorithms for high performance and scalability. Solutions must be capable of running in real time or near real time in high-throughput logistics environments. The role also works with operations, product management, and customers to turn ambiguous or variable real-world constraints into robust, production-ready technical solutions.
The position is located in Tokyo, Japan (MJHQ).
