We are looking for a
Senior C++ Software Engineer to help scale and productionize the core software infrastructure behind our robotics mapping platform. This role will focus on improving the architecture, robustness, maintainability, and deployment readiness of systems supporting large-scale facility scanning and robotics-enabled mapping workflows.
You will work closely with robotics engineers, mapping and localization specialists, and cross-functional deployment teams to evolve complex software systems into scalable, production-ready platforms capable of supporting enterprise customer environments.
This is a high-impact engineering role for someone who enjoys solving difficult systems problems, improving existing architectures, and operating in fast-moving environments where technical execution directly influences product delivery and operational success.
What You'll Do- Refactor and improve large-scale C++ and Python systems supporting robotics and mapping workflows
>- Improve software architecture, maintainability, scalability, and reliability across the platform
>- Support productionization and on-prem deployment initiatives
>- Optimize performance and operational robustness for deployment-critical systems
>- Collaborate with robotics, mapping, and deployment teams across multiple product lines
>- Debug and resolve complex systems and integration issues
>- Help establish engineering best practices, software quality standards, and scalable development patterns
>- Contribute to long-term technical strategy and platform evolution
>- Operate with high ownership in a fast-moving startup environment with evolving priorities and delivery timelines
>
What You Bring- Strong modern C++ experience in production environments
>- Strong software engineering fundamentals and systems thinking
>- Experience working within large or evolving codebases
>- Proven ability to refactor, scale, and improve existing systems
