About the Role
Build the edge-to-cloud infrastructure that connects, manages, updates, and monitors robot fleets. You will work across on-device software, cloud systems, and fleet observability, partnering with robotics, autonomy, hardware, deployment, and web product teams to support reliable real-world operations.
What You'll Do
Develop and maintain production-grade C++ and Go software running on robotic platforms.
Build on-device systems for robotics software integration, local data buffering, and edge communications.
Design and operate secure, low-latency data pipelines between robots, cloud infrastructure, and web platforms.
Build reliable over-the-air update systems for software deployed to robots in the field.
Develop telemetry, logging, alerting, and monitoring across devices, cloud systems, and fleet dashboards.
Improve reliability, performance, resource use, and resilience across device and cloud systems.
Collaborate across hardware and software teams to deliver fleet-scale capabilities powered by live robot data.
What We're Looking For
Three to ten years of experience in robotics or IoT infrastructure engineering.
Production experience with C++ and Go, plus hands-on embedded or edge-device development.
Experience building edge-to-cloud pipelines and deploying or managing OTA updates for device fleets.
Experience with fleet telemetry, monitoring, alerting, and dashboards.
Cloud infrastructure experience with AWS or GCP, Terraform, and Docker.
Familiarity with networking protocols such as MQTT, gRPC, or WebSockets.
Experience driving cross-functional projects across hardware and software teams; robotics or IoT startup experience is a plus.
Comfort building systems from the ground up and working in a fast-moving environment. A BS or MS in Computer Science or a related field is a plus.
