Senior Automation Control Engineer (Jamnagar)

Automation & Control Engineer Role mission Own the motion intelligence layer — the kinematics, dynamics, and control code that turn perception into safe, exact physical action. This is the role closest to the hardware and the role on which deployment reliability ultimately rests. Design motion sequences for the program's task library ("Grasp-Turn-Pull" for door operations, cassette handoff, bag manipulation, replenishment patterns). Build the motion-primitive library and Action Library that higher-level planners call into. Lead the safety case for live deployments in collaboration with RIL plant safety. Required experience ~8+ years in robotics motion control, with deep hands-on knowledge of kinematics, dynamics, and inverse/forward kinematics (IK/FK). ~ Production experience with MoveIt2 or an equivalent motion planning library. ~ Familiarity with motor control protocols (CAN, EtherCAT) at the implementation level — can debug an EtherCAT bus, not just use a vendor SDK. ~ Force/torque control implementation experience for at least one production application. ~ Has shipped a motion-control stack in a manufacturing or logistics setting that ran at production cadence. Preferred experience Experience with bipedal locomotion control (whole-body MPC, ZMP-based balance, or learned policies). Background in dexterous manipulation research or deployment (multi-fingered hands, in-hand manipulation). Familiarity with ros2_control hardware abstraction layer and writing custom controllers.
