TL;DR · Senior Software Engineer, Robotics Data Foundation

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Robotics Data Foundation team, you will design and build cloud systems that host ingestion pipelines, storage systems, and tools for vehicle telemetry. You will be responsible for normalizing data across flight controllers, mission systems, and sensor payloads to make it discoverable and searchable for downstream analysis. The role involves building high-availability infrastructure for both large-scale batch ingestion and low-latency streaming, while ensuring cloud-native systems remain edge-compatible for air-gapped settings. You will utilize Python, Rust, Java, or Go to develop backend services and pipelines. Required technical expertise includes modern lakehouse architectures like Iceberg or Delta Lake, ETL systems such as Flyte, Dagster, or Airflow, and distributed processing engines like Spark and Trino. You will also work with Docker, Kubernetes, and GitOps tools to manage high-throughput data flows.
