About the Company
Infinite Orbits Singapore is the Singapore subsidiary of Infinite Orbits SAS (Toulouse, France).
Infinite Orbits is a NewSpace company founded in 2017 that now counts more than 200 colleagues across locations including Luxembourg, Germany, Spain and the UK.
We develop in-orbit servicing solutions, from awareness, inspection and protection of space assets to life extension and satellite servicing. All of them are built on our own Autonomous Vision-Based Solution.
IO has two generations of missions:
“Orbit Guard” provides Inspection and Space Situational Awareness services in GEO.
“Endurance” is a docking service that extends the life of GEO telecom satellites by taking over their AOCS for 5 years.
IO Singapore is building the Group’s R&D hub in Asia-Pacific, focused on AI, advanced sensing and robotics for autonomous spacecraft. It works in close partnership with leading Singaporean research institutions such as A*STAR and NUS. Its research programme covers several fields: generalisable spatial perception, synthetic data generation and sim-to-real transfer, onboard AI reliability, compute-efficient AI, vision-language interfaces, event-based sensing, and robotic capture of non-cooperative objects.
We are looking for the founding technical team of Infinite Orbits in Singapore. You may bring entrepreneurial drive, enjoy moving fast between research and engineering, and want real ownership over what you build. If so, check out our open positions on our website.
About the Role
We are seeking a hands-on AI & Robotics Research Engineer to become one of the first technical hires of Infinite Orbits Singapore. The role sits at the intersection of AI, computer vision and robotics, rather than in a narrowly defined embedded-software or computer-vision position.
You will develop and experiment with perception and decision-making approaches for autonomous robotic systems. You will train and validate models on synthetic, simulated and real sensor data, and turn research results into working prototypes. Over time, these prototypes will connect to space-relevant sensing and capture systems.
You will work closely with Engineering in Toulouse, with other Group entities, and with our Singaporean research partners. In this position, you help shape the Group’s new AI and robotics R&D capability from its earliest stage.
