Already deployed with customers across multiple industries, our robots do commercial-grade work in the physical world. Our team comes from Google DeepMind, Meta, and Cruise, and we're backed by CRV, First Round, and other leading investors.\nThe Role\nAs a Software Engineer, Data Infra you are the architect of the \"Laboratory\" where Dyna’s robotic intelligence is refined. You won't just move data; you will build the interactive systems that bridge the gap between raw multimodal sensor streams and production-ready ML models.\nThis is a high-impact, hands-on role where you will design the infrastructure to visualize model performance, automate data labeling, and manage the \"human-in-the-loop\" workflows - such as teleoperation and skill capture - that are critical to our scaling. If you enjoy solving complex geometric problems and building the low-friction tools that empower ML researchers, you’ll thrive here.\nWhat You’ll Do\nInteractive Data Systems: Architect the engines and interfaces that unify raw robot logs, video, and 3D sensor data. You will enable seamless \"human-in-the-loop\" workflows, from episode annotation to analyzing manual interventions.\n\nSignal Extraction & Geometry: Design and implement algorithms to extract structured signals (trajectories, events, 3D poses) from raw captures. Strong mathematical intuition is required to turn pixels and point clouds into ground-truth insights.\n\nEvaluation & Benchmarking: Build high-performance tools to compare model-driven motion against human-captured data, helping the team quantify model progress across diverse tasks.\n\nScalable ML Pipelines: Build and operate distributed data pipelines (using Python, GCP/AWS, and Kubernetes) for the ingestion, transformation, and validation of terabytes of multimodal data.\n\nObservability & Debugging: Develop visualization tools that make complex model behaviors and sensor data easy to interpret, reducing the time from \"data collected\" to \"model trained.\"\n\nStartup Fluidity: Collaborate across ML, Robotics, and Product teams. As an early member of the data team, you will help define the roadmap where no blueprint yet exists.\n\nWhat You’ll Bring\nThe Experience: 5+ years of professional software experience, ideally with a focus on data-intensive or \"human-in-the-loop\" platforms.\n\nTechnical Stack: Proficiency in Python (NumPy, Pandas) and a solid understanding of modern backend architectures. Experience with React/TypeScript is a major plus for building internal observability tools.\n\nMathematical Core: Strong skills in algorithms and geometric calculations (e.g., coordinate transformations, 3D spatial reasoning).\n\nData Mastery: Hands-on experience with relational and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, Redis) and cloud-native infrastructure (GCP/AWS).\n\nProblem-Solving: The ability to debug real-world data issues - from sensor drift to pipeline bottlenecks - independently.\n\nBonus Points For:\nExperience with multimodal data (video, LiDAR, time-series) in robotics or autonomous systems.\n\nFamiliarity with Airflow, Kubeflow, or similar distributed batch processing systems.\n\nExperience with experiment tracking frameworks like Weights & Biases or MLFlow.\n\nExperience as an early hire in a fast-paced startup environment.\n\nAtDyna Robotics, we build technology for the real world, which requires a team as diverse as the environments our robots inhabit. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to technical rigor and mutual respect.\n Don’t let a checklist stop you. Data shows that underrepresented groups often only apply if they meet 100% of the criteria. We value problem-solving and grit over keyword matching. If you’re passionate about robotics, no matter your discipline, we want to hear from you, even if you don't check every box.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3924,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Robotics AI","Industrial Robotics","Robotic Software & Control Systems","Foundation Models"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-03-25T18:08:05Z"},{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-26T05:12:44Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 7","filings_12m":7,"filings_prev_12m":8,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":171786,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":2}],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.3,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":205,"expected_fill_days":67,"reasons":["conf:3","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":270000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/dynarobotics-software-engineer-data-infra","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/dynarobotics-software-engineer-data-infra.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-18T01:18:21Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2174,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-19T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4733},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4733"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fdynarobotics-software-engineer-data-infra"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fdynarobotics-software-engineer-data-infra"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fdynarobotics-software-engineer-data-infra"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/dynarobotics-software-engineer-data-infra\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fdynarobotics-software-engineer-data-infra"}]}
