Role Overview

As an Engineer at Arrow Electronics in Noida, India, you will dive deep into the cutting-edge world of robotics and artificial intelligence. This full-time position within the Engineering Services category focuses on hands-on development using ROS 2 and related technologies. With 3-4 years of experience required, you'll work on Autonomous Mobile Robots, Manipulators, and Humanoids, leveraging libraries like Navigation Stack and MoveIt. Your role will involve integrating AI/ML and Computer Vision tools such as OpenCV, PCL, NumPy, and TensorFlow, while programming in C/C++ and Python. You'll simulate environments with Gazebo, Isaac SIM, Gr00t, Isaac Lab, and Metropolis, testing on NVIDIA and Qualcomm hardware at our World Trade Tower (eInfochips) location.

This isn't just a job; it's a launchpad for innovation in robotics. Arrow Electronics, a global leader in electronic components and enterprise computing solutions, empowers you to shape the future of automation. Based in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, you'll contribute to projects that redefine industries from manufacturing to healthcare.

Day in the Life

Imagine starting your day at 9 AM in the bustling World Trade Tower in Noida. You boot up your high-end workstation equipped with NVIDIA GPUs, reviewing overnight simulation results from Isaac Lab. By 10 AM, you're in a stand-up meeting with your agile team, discussing progress on a humanoid robot's gait optimization using ROS 2 Navigation Stack.

Mid-morning, you dive into coding: implementing a new Computer Vision pipeline with OpenCV and PCL to detect obstacles for an Autonomous Mobile Robot. Lunch at 1 PM is a quick team affair in the cafeteria, chatting about the latest TensorFlow updates. Post-lunch, you switch to MoveIt for manipulator trajectory planning, testing in Gazebo simulator. By 3 PM, you're collaborating via Slack with Qualcomm hardware experts, debugging real-time issues on edge devices.

Afternoon brings AI/ML model training sessions using NumPy and TensorFlow, followed by code reviews in Git. As the day winds down around 6 PM, you document your Gr00t integrations and plan tomorrow's Metropolis-based vision demos. It's dynamic, collaborative, and endlessly rewarding.
