TL;DR · Software Engineer, Robotics Data Foundation

As a Software Engineer, Robotics Data Foundation (Cloud), you will join the Robotics Data Foundation team to build the company's vehicle telemetry backbone. You will design and develop cloud-based systems for ingestion pipelines, storage, and tools that transport telemetry from onboard systems to the cloud, ensuring data is discoverable and searchable across the fleet. Your daily work involves normalizing data across flight controllers, mission systems, and sensor payloads while building infrastructure for both large-scale batch ingestion and low-latency streaming. You will utilize Python, Rust, Java, or Go to build cloud-native, edge-compatible systems. The role requires expertise in lakehouse architectures like Iceberg or Delta Lake, ETL systems such as Flyte or Airflow, and distributed processing engines like Spark or Trino. You will also work with Docker, Kubernetes, and GitOps tools to manage high-throughput data pipelines for defense robotics.
