If you are applying for robotics jobs in the UK it is easy to assume you need degree level maths across everything. Most roles do not work like that. What hiring managers usually mean by “strong maths” is much more practical:
you can move confidently between coordinate frames
you understand rotations without getting lost
you can reason about kinematics, control, uncertainty & optimisation
you can turn that maths into working code in a robotics stack
This guide focuses on the only maths topics that consistently show up across common UK roles like Robotics Software Engineer, Controls Engineer, Autonomous Systems Engineer, Perception Engineer, SLAM Engineer, Robotics Research Engineer, Mechatronics Engineer & Robotics Systems Engineer.
You will also get a 6 week learning plan, portfolio projects & a resources section so you can learn fast without drowning in theory.
Robotics is where software, hardware & the physical world collide. From warehouse automation & surgical robots to drones, cobots & autonomous vehicles, robots must sense, think & act reliably in messy real environments.
To build that kind of technology, you need people who think differently.
If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too chaotic” for engineering. In reality, many traits that made school or traditional offices hard are exactly what robotics teams need: intense focus on complex systems, pattern-spotting in sensor data, creative problem-solving when hardware misbehaves.
This guide is written for neurodivergent job seekers exploring robotics careers in the UK. We’ll cover:
What neurodiversity means in a robotics context
How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to key robotics roles
Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law
How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews
By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in robotics – & how to turn “different thinking” into a professional superpower.
As we move into 2026, the UK robotics jobs market is in a strange but interesting place.
On one hand, UK manufacturers, logistics firms and warehouses must automate to stay competitive, tackle labour shortages and meet productivity and net-zero targets. On the other hand, the UK still lags badly behind peers in robot adoption, with relatively low robot density in factories compared with other advanced economies – which is both a challenge and a massive opportunity.
