Software Engineer (Data Infrastructure)
Posted Updated
- As a Software Engineer on the Data Infrastructure team, you will be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining the data infrastructure that powers our cutting-edge robotics systems. Your software will enable design, development, and operational robotic workflows, integrating with Kubernetes based cloud and on-device services
- This includes the systems that collect and process data from our robots in the real world, and feed that data into our machine learning pipelines to train and evaluate the models that make our robots intelligent. You will collaborate with a passionate Product and Engineering team creating software that enables fleets of robots to build better
- Design, develop, and maintain scalable and reliable software infrastructure for collecting, processing, and storing large volumes of robotics data (e.g., sensor data, telemetry, logs)
- Build and maintain tools to enable developers to debug their robotics systems
- Build internal developer tools, telemetry pipelines, and infrastructure services to inspect and validate real-time robot operations
- Implement and maintain data security and privacy best practices
- Work with Customers, Product managers, and Researchers to customize data pipelines for analysis and research
