We’re hiring a Senior Robotics Engineer at Wirabot.
Wirabot is a Kuala Lumpur-based robotics company building real-world robotics solutions for businesses. We started by creating high-impact humanoid robot experiences for events, trade shows, weddings, and product launches — and we are expanding into broader robotics solutions, including AMR, security robotics, and automation use cases for commercial and industrial environments.
We’re looking for a senior, hands-on engineer who can help us build, deploy, troubleshoot, and improve robots that must perform reliably in the real world.
This is not a corporate desk job.
We want someone who can move between hardware, software, testing, and deployment — someone who understands that robotics is not just about building cool machines, but delivering solutions that work when it matters.
What you’ll do
- Lead development, testing, and improvement of our robotics systems
- Work across humanoid robots, AMR-related projects, and security robotics applications
- Troubleshoot hardware, embedded systems, sensors, actuators, power systems, and software issues
- Support field deployment, integration, calibration, and maintenance
- Improve robot reliability, performance, and operational readiness
- Work on AI, autonomy, perception, and control-related functions where relevant
- Collaborate with management, operations, and junior technical team members
- Help shape technical direction as the company expands into wider robotics solutions
What we’re looking for
- 4+ years of experience in robotics, mechatronics, embedded systems, automation, or related fields
- Strong hands-on experience with robotics hardware and software
- Good working knowledge of Python, C++, and robotics/embedded development workflows
- Familiarity with sensors, actuators, controllers, battery systems, and system integration
- Experience with robotics frameworks such as ROS is a strong advantage
- Able to debug under pressure and solve practical engineering problems fast
- Comfortable working both in the lab and on-site with clients when needed
- Strong ownership mindset and startup attitude
Big plus if you have experience in
- AMR / AGV systems
- Security robotics
- Navigation, SLAM, LiDAR, obstacle avoidance
- Logistics automation
- Warehouse automation, fulfillment systems, conveyor/sorting environments, WMS integration, or industrial deployment
- Field deployment and maintenance of automation systems
- Malaysian compliance or technical documentation exposure
Why join Wirabot
- Be part of a growing robotics company in Kuala Lumpur
- Work on a mix of humanoid, AMR, security, and real-world commercial robotics solutions
- High ownership and real technical impact
- Ground-floor opportunity to help shape the future direction of the company
- Fast-moving environment with room to grow into a lead role
