Systems Engineer

About Us At THEKER, we’re taking on one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century: redefining how physical work gets done in the world.We are a robotics and AI company building intelligent, adaptable systems that solve problems traditional automation never could.From Barcelona, our mission is to create a generation?defining company leading the robotics revolution.By joining us, you will have the chance to do the most meaningful work of your life, setting a new standard for industrial automation and driving breakthroughs with global reach, while being surrounded by a focused, talent?dense team that shares this ambition and is here to win.Your RoleWe are looking for a Systems Engineer to own the infrastructure that makes THEKER’s intelligence stack run.Our robots operate in real client environments and generate continuous data streams.That data needs to flow reliably from the field to the systems where it gets processed, stored, and acted on.You will build and operate that pipeline.You will join a small engineering team at an early stage.There is no legacy infrastructure to maintain while the real work happens elsewhere.You start with a clean slate, and the architectural decisions you make now will shape how the system scales as deployments grow.The software and AI engineers who work alongside you depend on infrastructure that does not fail.That reliability is what you own.Day?to?day, you will manage servers and cloud infrastructure, design integration layers between hardware systems and data backends, and set up monitoring so the team can trust the systems are healthy.You will work closely with software and AI engineers who move fast and need solid infrastructure underneath them.What We’re Looking ForSolid experience managing and deploying systems on local servers or cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)Strong understanding of systems architecture principles: scalability, reliability, and performance across infrastructure layersExperience designing integration layers between data?producing systems and storage backendsWorking knowledge of relational and non?relational databases.Comfortable with schema design and query writing, and clear on when to reach for each typeSolid Python skills for scripting, automation, and systems integrationProficiency in Linux/Unix environments as a core part of day?to?day workStrong grasp of networking fundamentals: how protocols work, how systems connect, and how data moves across infrastructure layersExperience with monitoring and observability tools such as Grafana, Prometheus, or similarBased in Barcelona or willing to relocateNice to HaveFamiliarity with IoT protocols and edge?to?cloud data flowsExperience with containerization tools such as Docker or KubernetesHands?on experience with infrastructure?as?code tools such as Terraform or PulumiYou’ll Thrive at THEKER ifYou’re excited by a fast?paced and ambitious environment.The opportunity ahead of us is enormous, and we’re going all in to capture it.You want responsibility early on, delivering at world?class standards for leading clients.You enjoy experimenting, iterating quickly, and embracing change as part of the learning process.You’re open to feedback, collaborative, and enjoy making decisions as a team.Main ResponsibilitiesOwn the design, deployment, and operation of THEKER’s server and cloud infrastructureBuild integration layers between data?producing systems (robots, sensors, edge devices) and storage backendsDesign and maintain database schemas across relational and non?relational systemsImplement monitoring and observability across all infrastructure layers, including logging, alerting, and system health dashboardsDevelop Python scripts and automation tools to reduce manual operations and improve system reliabilityManage networking configuration and connectivity between systems across infrastructure layersCollaborate with software and AI engineers to understand infrastructure requirements and translate them into reliable, scalable solutionsDefine and document infrastructure standards to support the engineering team as the system growsWhat We OfferBeing part of a fast?growing robotics and AI company with huge ambition, where your career can accelerate alongside us.The chance to build THEKER’s infrastructure layer from scratch and set the technical standards the entire engineering team will depend on.A focused, talent?dense team of passionate innovators who live and breathe robotics.An environment where new ideas are encouraged, and your contributions shape both the product and the company.100% on?site work in Barcelona.What The Process Looks LikeIntro call with Martín (Chief of Staff).Technical challenge (take?home).Conversation with our technical team.Meet the rest of the team and founders and work together on a live challenge at our offices.These steps can be completed in 7 days.Final ObservationWe’re committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion.We welcome all applications regardless of background, age, gender, disability, sexual orientation, or beliefs.#J-*****-Ljbffr
