Own and scale the core systems that ensure robots run reliably in real-world production environments. Operate across the full stack, from low-level robot software and Linux systems to cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, and developer tooling. Work directly with leadership to identify bottlenecks, build solutions, and drive engineering velocity using AI coding agents for automation.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own and improve robot-side software and infrastructure stack, including Python-based control systems, Linux environments, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure for 24/7 production reliability.
- Work with leadership to identify engineering bottlenecks like slow deploy cycles or flaky CI, then design and roll out systems to boost velocity.
- Build and operate AI-powered engineering automation, including agents for triaging CI failures, security checks, and multi-step debugging.
- Debug complex issues spanning hardware, operating systems, networking, and application layers, shipping fixes quickly to production.
- Design and build simulation, testing, and validation infrastructure like camera simulation and kinematics workflows for rapid iteration.
- Act as a force multiplier by tackling cross-cutting problems and driving adoption across engineering teams.
3+ years of experience in robotics infrastructure or systems engineering using Python.
Hands-on experience with real robotics hardware such as arms and cameras.
Owned CI/CD pipelines and managed infrastructure as code.
Deep Linux systems knowledge including kernel, networking, and containers.
Systems-level Python programming with processes, hardware I/O, and async.
Comfortable with rapid iteration, minimal oversight, and managing change efficiently.
Must work on-site 5 days per week.
Preferred:
Directed AI coding agents for complex engineering tasks.
Background in quantitative fields like Math or Physics.
Experience with NixOS or similar reproducible build systems.
Active GitHub with personal projects or open-source contributions.
Experience with low-level programming, Nix, or QNX.
