About the role

Software Engineer role focused on building deployment infrastructure for a fleet of robots, bridging on-robot software with off-board systems, and enabling scalable, reliable field deployments across multiple sites.

Responsibilities

  • Build the deployment platform. Design and ship internal tools and systems for site bring-up, robot configuration, fleet monitoring, remote diagnostics, data capture, failure triage, deployment checklists, and operational dashboards.
  • Partner with Operations. Embed with the Ops team to understand field reality, identify which failures matter most, and turn manual workflows into reliable software. Standardize how new sites are launched so each deployment compounds on the last.
  • Close the loop with the model team. Build the pipelines that route useful data and failure cases from the fleet back to research, and make it easier to compare performance across different environments and tasks.
  • Applied research and engineering. Participate in applied research focused on ensuring model-level stability and consistency when deploying complex AI models into unpredictable real-world environments.
  • End-to-end infrastructure architecture. Design and build highly reliable infrastructure that bridges on-robot application software with large-scale off-board computing and cloud operations.
  • Bridge research and reality. Act as the technical bridge between our core AI research teams and our deployment reality, translating complex lab research into robust, field-ready systems.
  • Engineering excellence. Champion rigorous testing, continuous integration, and scalable software practices that ensure our systems can handle the immense complexity of the physical world.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or a related field.
  • Strong CS foundations. Deep, first-principles understanding of systems architecture, software design patterns, and application-level development.
  • At least 3 years of professional experience as a versatile software engineer, with strong capabilities in both backend systems and broad application-level software.
  • Proficient in the Python ecosystem.
  • Proven experience building robust, scalable software that spans multiple domains (e.g., bridging cloud backend services with edge devices, physical hardware, or complex data collection systems).
  • Experience with containerization, orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud architecture (AWS, GCP, Azure).
  • Highly adaptable and comfortable working across a varied tech stack.
  • Strong cross-domain communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with Operations, AI researchers, hardware engineers, and platform teams.
  • Comfort with ambiguity, a deep interest in operational pain, and motivation to build systems that compound. You’re excited to work close to production robotics and turn heroic on-site effort into durable engineering.
  • Demonstrated passion for the intersection of AI research and wide-scale infrastructure, specifically for robotics or autonomous systems.
