About the role

Cloud Infrastructure Engineer role at Weave Robotics focusing on building and owning the networking, real-time transport, and backend infrastructure that connects robots to GPUs, teleoperators, and customer apps.

Responsibilities

  • Build our distributed infra: Design backend services that coordinate robots, cloud compute, teleoperators, and customer applications across unreliable networks and partial failures. Build for fault tolerance, idempotency, consistency, scalability, and graceful degradation as the fleet grows.
  • Serve cloud inference: Build low-latency serving infrastructure for models robots call mid-task, including connection management, GPU scheduling and utilization, autoscaling, load balancing, and graceful degradation when connectivity or compute capacity is constrained.
  • Build the product backend: Develop APIs and services for fleet, customer, and robot state, backed by well-designed data models and production databases. Own schema evolution, migrations, performance, backup, and recovery as these systems scale.
  • Secure robot-to-cloud communication: Build authentication, authorization, device identity, credential provisioning and rotation, and secure communication between robots and cloud services, partnering with Security from architecture through deployment.
  • Build the real-time transport stack: Own low-latency media and control transport end-to-end: connection lifecycle, NAT traversal on real home networks, encrypted transport, congestion control, jitter handling, and the latency budget teleoperation depends on.
  • Fleet telemetry: Ingestion, storage, and query of logs and metrics from every robot in the field, serving engineering, fleet operations, and ML data needs.
  • Own production reliability: Define SLOs and build monitoring, alerting, deployment, and incident-response systems that keep critical fleet services available and make failures diagnosable.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years building backend or media infrastructure in production, with real ownership of systems under load.
  • Real-time networking depth. Built or operated low-latency streaming systems over UDP, debugged NAT traversal failures across home routers, reasoned about congestion control, and read protocol source when documentation ran out; not just using an SDK.
  • Cloud infrastructure knowledge: Terraform/OpenTofu, Ansible, Docker, Kubernetes; hands-on production deployment, monitoring, and debugging.
  • Networking fluency: UDP/TCP, NAT traversal, STUN/TURN/ICE, congestion control, packet loss, jitter, and consumer Wi-Fi realities.
  • Cloud & device security: TLS/mTLS, PKI, certificates, KMS/HSMs, secrets management, device identity, credential provisioning and rotation.
  • Production data experience: schema design, migrations, and operational care for customer-facing databases.
