The Mission
Proactive Global have partnered with an exciting AI business who are striving to create the world's
leading, commercially scalable, safe, and advanced humanoid robots that seamlessly integrate into
daily life and amplify human capacity.

Vision
In a world where artificial intelligence opens up new horizons, our faith in its potential unveils a new
outlook where, together, humans and machines build a new future filled with knowledge,
inspiration, and incredible discoveries. The development of a functional humanoid robot underpins
an era of abundance and well-being where poverty will disappear, and people will be able to choose
what they want to do. We believe that providing a universal basic income will eventually be a true
evolution of our civilization.

Solution
As the demands on our built environment rise, labour shortages loom. With the world's workforce
increasingly moving away from undesirable tasks, the manufacturing, construction, and logistics
industries critical to our daily lives are left exposed. By deploying our general-purpose humanoid
robots in environments deemed hazardous or monotonous, we envision a future where human wellbeing
is safeguarded while closing the gaps in critical global labour needs.

Responsibilities:
● Develop and optimize navigation systems using SLAM techniques, including visual,
inertial, and depth-based approaches
● Implement and maintain a scene spatial representation (e.g occupancy grid mapping)
● Ensuring time synchronization & calibration between visual, inertial, and depth
sensors for accurate data fusion
● Design and develop motion planning algorithms for whole-robot navigation
● Ensure robust system performance through deployment and testing in real-world
environments
● Collaborate with reasoning and controls teams to integrate navigation and motion
systems with broader robot functionality
● Optimize algorithms for execution on embedded computational platforms under
real-time constraints

Key Skills:
● Expertise in SLAM technologies (visual, inertial, depth)
● Experience with real-time mapping and scene representation
● Proficiency in classical motion planning techniques
● Experience with calibration & sensors fusion
● Strong software engineering skills for real-world deployment, particularly on
embedded systems
● Knowledge of multi-agent navigation challenges and scalability considerations

Benefits

  • High competitive salary.
  • 28 calendar days of vacation per year.
  • Flexible working hours.
  • Opportunity to work on the latest technologies in AI, Robotics, EdTech, MedTech and
    others.
