Were building the full-stack foundation for the next generation of humanoid robots from high-performance software-defined hardware to the foundational models and video world models that control it. Our robots are designed to be generalists capable of operating in complex real-world environments and handling scenarios unseen in training. We work at the intersection of large-scale learning robotics and systems with a research team that includes researchers from Stanford Berkeley Harvard and beyond. Were not building a feature; were building a new computing platform for physical work and with over $400M raised were investing aggressively in the R&D hardware development and manufacturing scale-up to make that a reality.

Were looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer to help build the internal platforms and tooling that power our research robotics and infrastructure teams. Youll work across a broad surface area from frontend interfaces for data collection and model validation to backend services and APIs that tie together our cloud infrastructure robot fleet and data pipelines.

Why this role
The platform you build is the operating system for how our researchers and engineers work your tools directly influence how fast we can iterate on model quality and robot behavior
Rare opportunity to build internal tooling at the intersection of physical AI and large-scale robotics with direct visibility into how foundation models get developed and deployed
High ownership in a small team youll make real product decisions not execute design specs handed down from above

Responsibilities
Build frontend interfaces for data collection labeling model validation and experiment tracking
Design and maintain backend services and APIs that support fast-moving research and engineering workflows across cloud robot and data infrastructure
Build tooling and dashboards for observability across cloud infrastructure distributed training jobs and robot fleet status
Integrate with data infrastructure systems storage backends pipeline orchestration and dataset management tools
Build interfaces and services that connect with our physical robot ecosystem fleet management teleoperation and deployment tooling
Own reliability performance and scalability of internal platform tooling as usage and complexity grow
Collaborate closely with researchers ML engineers and robotics teams to understand needs and ship tools that accelerate their work

Qualifications
3 years of experience in full stack development ideally with internal tool or platform experience
Strong proficiency in a frontend framework (React Vue or similar)
Solid backend experience in one or more languages (Python Go etc.)
Experience with cloud infrastructure and storage (e.g. AWS GCP S3 GCS) and backend services
Ability to design and work with APIs (REST or gRPC) and structured data pipelines
Comfort working across codebases and systems owned by different teams robotics ML and infrastructure
Strong attention to security privacy and multi-tenant data isolation

Bonus Qualifications
Familiarity with ML training pipelines model versioning or experiment tracking tools
Exposure to robot fleet management robotics control systems or teleoperation
Experience with data infrastructure tooling dataset management pipeline observability or large-scale storage systems
Familiarity with distributed systems or cloud infrastructure concepts (Kubernetes job scheduling cluster monitoring)
