The Robotics Product Engineer builds software that helps robotics customers run models on robots, translating customer workflows into product features and working across simulation, web interfaces, backend services, APIs, and infrastructure.\n\nResponsibilities\nWork directly with customers. Sit with their workflows, dig into failures, and figure out what would make their week easier\nTurn open-ended asks into clear requirements, then decide what's a quick fix, what's a feature, and what belongs in the platform\nShip across the web UI, backend services, APIs and infrastructure\nTrace problems across robot software, networking, cloud services and model inference, using logs, measurements and reproducible tests\nBuild simulation and visualization tools that let customers set up environments, inspect robot behavior and test policies\nKeep up with robotics research and tooling, try what looks useful, and bring it into the product when it earns a place\n\nSkills\nYou've shipped production software from first idea to people actually using it\nHands-on robotics experience\nYou build across the stack, from front-end interfaces to backend services and infra\nProduct judgment: you talk to users, work out what they actually need, and decide what to build\nYou debug across application, networking and infrastructure boundaries without assuming the bug lives in one place\nYou read robotics research and can turn a good idea into working software\nDeploying learned models or policies on physical robots is a big plus\nPython, C++, Rust, TypeScript/React or Go\nROS 2, MuJoCo or Isaac Sim\nInteractive 3D, browser graphics or simulation interfaces\nPolicy serving, teleoperation, robotics datasets or evaluation workflows\nCloud infra, containers, WebRTC and real-time streaming\n\nBenefits\nMeaningful early equity\nVisa sponsorship\nRelocation support\nGenerous health, dental, and vision coverage\n\nCompany Overview\nReactor is an artificial intelligence infrastructure company developing a platform for real-time generative video and interactive models. It was founded in 2025, and is headquartered in San Francisco, California, USA, with a workforce of 11-50 employees. Its website is https://www.reactor.inc/.\n\nCompany H1B Sponsorship\nReactor has a track record of offering H1B sponsorships, with 2 in 2026.
