# Software Engineer

Cota Robotics puts robots to work in retail stores. They take on the repetitive, time-consuming jobs like stocking shelves, inbounding goods 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 software that connects robotics with operations: the tools our operators use to run robots, the systems the ops team relies on, and what our customers see. You’ll own our external-facing software, so what you build is what retailers experience of Cota. One week it’s an operator interface, the next a backend service or a customer integration. We work hard and move fast. What you’ll do Own our external-facing software: the products and integrations our customers use Build the tools our operators and ops team use every day to run robots in stores Make the technical calls on architecture, tooling and reliability Own problems end to end, from first conversation to running in production Wha
