About the role

  • We've raised over $450M and are investing aggressively in model research, infrastructure, hardware development, and manufacturing scale-up to make generalist robotics a reality.

Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain the networking and communication infrastructure that connects onboard robot systems to each other, to the cloud, and to teleoperation and monitoring systems
  • Own data collection pipelines that capture sensor, telemetry, and behavioral data from the robot and reliably upload it to cloud storage for model training
  • Develop internal tooling that accelerates robot software development: deployment pipelines, logging infrastructure, debugging tools, and field testing utilities
  • Support bring-up and field testing of new hardware revisions, debugging issues across the full onboard software stack
  • Collaborate closely with ML, perception, and control engineers to ensure onboard systems meet the data quality and reliability requirements of model training and deployment
  • We own the full robotics stack from high-performance hardware and robot systems to the infrastructure and state-of-the-art foundation world models that control our robots.
  • Our robots are designed to be generalists capable of operating in complex, real-world environments and handling long-tail edge cases, made possible by our cutting edge research and end-to-end system design.
  • You'll work across the full onboard stack - from networking and communication infrastructure to perception and control integration, data collection pipelines, and the tooling that lets us continue to develop and improve our robots in the field.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience in robotics software engineering, embedded systems, or a closely related field
  • Experience with networking, IPC, and communication protocols for hardware-software systems (e.g., gRPC, DDS, MQTT, WebSockets)
  • Familiarity with cloud storage and data upload pipelines (e.g., AWS, GCP, S3, GCS)
  • Experience with ROS/ROS2 or similar robotics middleware in production or research contexts
  • Ability to debug across the full stack - from driver-level issues to application behavior on live hardware
  • Comfort working directly with physical hardware in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
  • Familiarity with perception pipelines or control systems and how they interact with the broader robot stack
  • Experience with over-the-air (OTA) software updates and deployment infrastructure for robot fleets

Nice to have

  • Nice to Have (But Not Required)

Benefits

  • Build and maintain telemetry and observability systems - giving the team real-time visibility into robot health, system state, and field performance

Company info
