Founded in 2014, Oxa is a global leader in autonomous vehicle (AV) technology, dedicated to accelerating Industrial Mobile Autonomy (IMA).
We develop advanced physical AI and robotics technology, anchored around our configurable and explainable self-driving software, Oxa Driver; development toolchain, Oxa Foundry; and fleet management software, Oxa Hub. We utilise hardware blueprints known as Reference Autonomy Designs (RADs) to enable the integration of sensors, compute and drive-by-wire systems into existing vehicles produced by OEMs.
Our solutions automate repetitive industrial driving tasks, such as the towing and carrying of goods in locations like ports, airports and manufacturing facilities, or asset and perimeter monitoring in environments such as solar farms or industrial plants. We’re helping global businesses to address critical challenges like labour shortages and rising operational costs - driving efficiency, productivity, and safety.
Based in Oxford, and with offices in Canada, our engineering team is drawn from the world’s top physical AI specialists and led by originators of the field.
Your Team
Our Senior Robotics Engineer will join our Solutions Performance stream. This team serves as the final gateway between our core engineering platforms and live customer domains.
Our team is responsible for configuring platform performance on/off-site, validating the product performance based upon customer requirements, maximising product effectiveness, and developing the technical blueprints and scalable frameworks that allow a single engineer to bring multiple vehicles safely online on a new site.
Your Responsibilities
* Measuring and Improving the overall product effectiveness of the autonomous machine
* Configuration and Development of the Product
* Implementing Feedback & Iteration Loops
* Perform Integrated Performance Validation
* System Diagnostics, addressing problems with visible risks and roadblocks while bringing clarity to problems and identifying simple solutions
* Engaging in the engineering community within your organisation to share knowledge and insights
* Identify functionality gaps, contributing to the development of fixes
* Positively impact product quality, customer experience, and maintainability, and take on projects that improve team processes and solutions
