Software Engineer

At XDOF, we’re at an inflection point. Frontier labs are racing to build general-purpose robots, and high-quality training data is the bottleneck. We’re building the foundation behind the foundation models - the data collection systems, operational capability, exabyte-scale data warehouse, and software toolchain - to help our partners drive the field forward.

Full-stack engineers at XDOF build the software that our team and our partners interact with every day: from the backend services that orchestrate jobs against real hardware, through to the UI that customers use to manage datasets, launch evaluations, and monitor results.

What You’ll Do

Full-stack engineers ship products across the entire stack. Sample projects include:

• building the customer-facing platform for partners to browse, search, and manage large-scale robotics datasets
• designing and implementing APIs that power both internal tools and external-facing platform features
• building interfaces for customers to configure, launch, and monitor workflows that run against real robotic hardware
• contributing to our data collection application across the full stack
• creating data visualization interfaces that help researchers and operators inspect collection quality at a glance

Baseline skills:

• bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science or a related field
• strong proficiency in Python and at least one modern frontend framework (React, Vue, or similar)
• experience building and shipping web applications with real users, from database to UI
• comfort designing APIs and working across backend services, databases, and frontend code

You might be a good fit if you:

• have experience building data-intensive applications or tools for technical users
• have built product features that orchestrate or interact with physical hardware or compute infrastructure
• have worked with data visualization libraries or built custom dashboards
• have prior experience with AI, robotics, or scientific computing environments
• care about craft in both backend architecture and frontend UX
• are very comfortable working in 0*1 environments
• are mission-driven and passionate about robotics: work at XDOF is fast-paced and constant. We hope you love what you’re going to be doing, because you’ll be doing a lot of it!
