We are looking for a Motion Planning / Navigation Engineer to develop and deploy the algorithms that enable autonomous guided forklifts to plan, navigate, and move safely and accurately in real-world environments.
The ideal candidate has strong hands-on experience in path/motion planning, trajectory generation, trajectory tracking, and advanced control, with proven experience implementing and deploying MPC or equivalent controllers on real robots.
Experience with forklifts, AMRs, AGVs, autonomous vehicles, or warehouse robots is highly desirable.
We are looking for someone who understands how planning and control work under the hood, not someone who has only integrated existing navigation packages.
You should be able to diagnose a problem such as:
"The robot follows the planned path poorly, oscillates around the trajectory, or fails to navigate a constrained warehouse aisle."
and determine whether the root cause is planning, trajectory generation, kinematic constraints, controller design/tuning, localization, or actuation.
The candidate should be comfortable going beyond parameter tuning and modifying, optimizing, or developing planning and control algorithms when required.
“TELEXISTENCE” is a concept that was first proposed in 1980 by Dr. Susumu Tachi, Professor Emeritus of the University of Tokyo and the chairman of TX inc, which refers to the notion of humans being in a place other than where he or she actually exists and being able to act freely in that remote environment – essentially expanding the presence of human beings – as well as the technological systems that make this possible.
Our mission at TX inc is to change robotics, change structures, and change the world.
テレイグジスタンス（TELEXISTENCE/遠隔存在）とは、TX incの創業者の一人でTX会長でもある東京大学名誉教授 舘暲氏が1980年に世界で初めて提唱した、人間が、自分自身が現存する場所とは異なった場所に実質的に存在し、その場所で自在に行動するという人間の存在拡張の概念であり、また、それを可能とするための技術体系です。 TX incのミッションは、ロボットを変え、構造を変え、世界をかえることです。
