Role Posting Log in to save

The Principal Platform Software Engineer joins the OCI Robotics Cloud team to develop a secure, scalable, cloud-native platform for managing heterogeneous robot fleets. You will own the architecture, design, and implementation of major platform components, driving projects from concept through production. Key responsibilities include building services for robot registration, fleet management, telemetry, digital twins, and AI-powered applications. You will develop AI-assisted, spec-driven onboarding capabilities using standardized service contracts, SDKs, and reusable adapters. The role requires proficiency in Python, Go, Java, or C++, along with experience in Kubernetes, containers, and CI/CD. You will solve complex problems at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, edge computing, and simulation, integrating technologies like VLM/VLA, embodied AI, and robotics frameworks such as ROS 2 to enable continuous learning and fleet-scale deployment.

What you'll do

  • Own the architecture, design, implementation, and evolution of a major Robotics Cloud service or platform component.
  • Drive projects end-to-end from initial requirements and technical design through production operations and continuous improvement.
  • Build scalable cloud-native services for robot onboarding, fleet management, telemetry, and AI-powered robotics.
  • Define secure APIs, service contracts, SDKs, and edge interfaces to enable integration with multi-vendor robots.
  • Develop AI-assisted, spec-driven robot onboarding capabilities including reusable adapters and developer workflows.
  • Design systems that connect simulation, robot telemetry, evaluation, deployment, and learning feedback loops.
  • Develop platform capabilities for integration with VLM/VLA, multimodal, embodied AI, and agentic robotics systems.
  • Lead technical designs, architecture reviews, code reviews, and production readiness for owned components.

What we're looking for

  • BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical field.
  • 7+ years of software development experience building backend services, distributed systems, cloud platforms, or related production systems.
  • Strong programming skills in one or more languages such as Python, Go, Java, or C++.
  • Experience designing and building REST APIs, microservices, and distributed systems.
  • Experience with cloud-native technologies including Kubernetes, containers, CI/CD, and container orchestration.
  • Experience building scalable, reliable, secure, and maintainable production software.
  • Demonstrated ability to independently own complex technical projects from architecture and design through production delivery.
  • MS in Computer Science, Robotics, AI/ML, or a related field (preferred).
