Software Engineer with flair for hardware

Salary Competitive

RiACT, Copenhagen's vibrant B2B deep tech firm, is crafting a new era for the robotics industry. We are the architects of a smarter manufacturing future.

Today, we live in an era defined by universal compatibility and standardization, yet robots are still infinitely complex. Imagine, then, a world where a single universal software can control any robot, abstracting from complex hardware protocols and rendering robot operations as simple as using a smartphone. Our game-changing software, RiFLEX, is scripting this reality.

Echoing Android's impact in the mobile industry, RiFLEX is transforming robotics. We're removing the layers of complexity and replacing them with ease of use and universal adaptability. Our software turns robot programming into an effortless 15-minute task, making industrial flexibility the norm, not the exception.
