Full Job Description
We're looking for a sharp generalist engineer to work on our robot software. You'll sit close to both our customers and our hardware team. The work spans our core robot feature stack - building and shipping features that improve our customers' experience of our robots - as well as our internal test infrastructure and robot tooling. A robotics background is not a requirement. The ideal fit is someone eager to dive into new problems, curious and quick to learn new domains, and who cares deeply about what makes products usable. You might be a good fit if you: • Are a strong generalist programmer who's comfortable jumping between domains • Love shipping things and seeing real people use them • Are pragmatic and you reach for the simplest thing that solves the problem • Communicate well and enjoy working directly with customers and teammates outside engineering • Use AI tools extremely effectively Bonus if you've worked with: • Rust (most of our stack is written in it - but a strong engineer can pick it up) • Embedded Linux, hardware, or anything physical, like software for robots or cars • Testing and reliability at scale • Video pipelines, networking, or distributed systems • Fleet management We care much more about what you've built than credentials. We're a small, fast-moving team working together in person in San Francisco. If this sounds exciting to you, we want to hear from you.
