# Robotics Engineer

**Cota Robotics** · Stockholm

Apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/cotarobotics/5a9687b4-3526-45f5-a607-3894fc45394d

## About the role

Cota Robotics puts robots to work in retail stores. They take on the repetitive, time-consuming jobs like inbounding goods, replenishing shelves and sorting stock, currently mostly overnight. They're driven from our control room in Stockholm and increasingly run on their own. We raised a €1.92M pre-seed in August 2026 and are live with retailers in Sweden and Finland. We're a small team based at Sankt Eriksgatan in Stockholm, where half the office is our own dark store.

#### About the role

You’ll build the autonomy that lets our robots work shelves and pallets in live stores. We care about what works in a store at 6am, not what wins a benchmark, and that usually means combining learned policies with classical methods rather than picking a side.

#### What you’ll do

- Develop and deploy manipulation and navigation policies on real robots in real stores

- Work with VLAs and modern learned control alongside classical planning, perception, and control

- Decide which approach fits which problem, and be right about it often enough

- Own problems from store observation to shipped behavior

#### What we’re looking for

- Well versed in robotics broadly, with hands-on experience on real robots

- Clear on the tradeoffs between classical and learned approaches

- A fast learner who can define the problem before solving it

- Comfortable with chaos and speed

- You must already have the right to work in Sweden, as unfortunately, we’re not able to offer visa sponsorship at our current stage

#### Why join

- Work on practical autonomy problems in live retail environments

- Build systems that ship to stores, not just demos or benchmarks

- Influence technical direction early

- Take meaningful ownership in a fast-moving team
