Kassel, Hessen, Deutschland SWARM Biotactics Vollzeit 90.000 € - 120.000 € pro Jahr

At
SWARM Biotactics
, we're creating
biorobots
— living, intelligent systems based on insects. Each insect carries a custom-designed backpack that enables wireless control, sensing, and secure communication.

Biorobot swarms combine the agility of biology with AI, sensors, and swarm coordination — unlocking capabilities where conventional machines fail.

We are
the only company in the world
doing this — and we're pushing the edge of what's possible in every domain: from biology to embedded hardware to swarm intelligence.

We're seeking a
Senior Sensor Fusion / FPGA Engineer
to join our onsite team and design the real-time data pipelines that give our biobots perception and awareness.

This is not a remote, abstract, or incremental role — it's a
hands-on engineering challenge
where you'll shape the nervous system of a living robotic platform.


Your role

  • Design and implement
    sensor fusion pipelines
    combining multimodal data (IMU, vision, biosignals, environmental sensing).
  • Develop
    real-time processing architectures
    on
    FPGAs
    and embedded platforms for ultra-low-latency integration.
  • Collaborate closely with
    hardware, biology, and AI teams
    to translate raw data into control signals and behaviors.
  • Prototype rapidly — test, measure, and iterate in the lab.
  • Take ownership from algorithm to silicon — from concept to running system.


Your Profile

  • Hold a
    Master's or PhD
    in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or similar.
  • Expert in
    FPGA development (VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog)
    and
    sensor fusion algorithms (Kalman filters, Bayesian estimation, signal processing)
    .
  • Skilled in
    real-time embedded systems
    , data acquisition, and synchronization.
  • You love
    hands-on work
    , daily collaboration, and cross-domain problem solving.
  • You're a
    creator with ownership
    — autonomous, curious, and unafraid of unknowns.


Why SWARM Biotactics

  • We're
    well-funded
    and expanding fast in a space
    no one else is in
    .
  • You'll join a
    world-class team
    working on the
    frontier of science and engineering
    .
  • Your work will directly define how
    biobots perceive and interact
    with the world.


Join the Swarm

If you want your designs to power
machines that blur the line between biology and technology
, we want to meet you.
