Our Story
Our start-up originated from the Robotics Minor at the Technical University of Delft. The minor consisted of 8 groups of students with different disciplines and skills. Each group eventually had to create a robot for a specific company. Our group had built a working prototype and graduated cum laude. Because our way of thinking was different from that of our competitors in the same field, people in the port became very interested in this project. For this reason, we have grown into an innovative robotics start-up and one of the professional companies of Dubbeldam Holding!
Meet Our Team
Our team consists of eight people. Three mechanical engineers, one aerospace engineer, one industrial design engineer, two software engineers and one machine learning engineer. Together we make innovative robots that can solve concrete problems.

Emma Albas
Front Office
"Collaborating with a passionate and specialised team extensively energises me. At Qafka, we focus on innovative projects that meet unique market needs. Although robotisation is increasing, full automation in many processes still lags. This results in systems where humans and technology must work together. In these complex interactions, new issues emerge, demanding innovative solutions. I am excited to represent Qafka in the market and leverage our technical expertise to tackle these intricate problems."
Chandran Nandkumar
AI Engineer
"What I love most about working at Qafka Robotics is the opportunity to apply the knowledge I gained during my Master's directly to real-world problems. It offers great exposure to valuable skills, and I get to work on cutting-edge developments in AI and robotics. I’m thrilled to be part of the team and to gain more insight into how robotics can benefit industries at scale."
