About the role

  • This role is for an experienced software engineer who thrives in large, complex codebases and cares deeply about engineering quality.
  • This is not a "vibe coding" role - we're looking for someone who has spent years shipping and maintaining real systems.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and maintain core software and infrastructure systems.
  • Collaborate closely with robotics, agents, and deployment teams to deliver integrated solutions.

Nice to have

  • 8-10+ years of professional experience in software engineering roles.
  • Experience working across infrastructure, backend systems, and/or developer platform environments.
  • Demonstrated record of substantial open-source contributions.
  • Professional background comparable to senior engineers at infrastructure-driven technology companies.
  • At Dimensional, accessibility is a fundamental human right.

Skills

  • Work within and continuously improve a large, evolving production codebase.
  • Establish and uphold engineering standards and best practices.
  • Contribute to architectural decisions that enable scalability, reliability, and long-term company growth.
  • Senior to staff-level experience in software engineering roles.
  • Deep experience designing, maintaining, and evolving large-scale production codebases.
  • Strong systems thinking, with a demonstrated focus on code quality, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
  • Prior contributions to open-source projects or other publicly visible technical work.
  • Comfort owning ambiguous, high-impact technical problems and driving them to resolution with minimal direction.
