## About the Role

We need a backend-leaning engineer with about 4-8 years of experience building and running production cloud and distributed systems. You must be strong in both Python and TypeScript, not just one of them. You should be comfortable working in an existing legacy codebase, debugging and making changes across several repos without much hand-holding. You should also have a track record of owning production services and APIs from design through deployment and operation, ideally on AWS. Bonus points if you've worked with real-time or streaming data, or with telemetry, sensor or geospatial data from robotics, autonomous vehicles, IoT, aerospace or defense systems., * Experience building, deploying, and operating production cloud or distributed systems; backend- leaning software engineer focused on platform APIs and distributed services

 * Python and TypeScript proficiency
 * Ability to work hybrid in Alameda, CA (3 days/week, no relocation support)
 * Comfort working in the defense industry
 * 4 - 8 years of experience as a cloud software engineer with strong a backend, infrastructure, and distributed systems background
 * Experience debugging and modifying legacy codebases across multiple repositories; need a high- level of ownership to hit the ground running in this area and require little hand- holding
 * Bachelor's degree in CS or other technical domain
 * Experience with AWS (or another major cloud platform), * Experience in streaming or real- time data, telemetry, sensor, or geospatial data, IoT or robotics, aerospace/defense, robotics, autonomous vehicles, IoT, or distributed

## Description

* Design, build and operate production cloud services that ingest, process, store and expose sensor, detection and operational data from a fleet of autonomous surface vessels (USVs)
 * Take ownership of projects that span multiple repos in an existing codebase. You'll debug, refactor and improve that infrastructure as it scales, rather than starting new projects from scratch
 * Work closely with the Fleet Engineering hiring manager and front-end-focused teammates to give downstream applications and mission operators the backend services and APIs they need
 * Develop backend services and APIs in Python and TypeScript that connect vessels with intermittent connections to the applications used to monitor and operate them
 * Lead the design of data models and database systems for operational and sensor-derived data, from early design through production rollout
 * Deploy, monitor and debug services in AWS, improving reliability, scalability, observability and graceful handling of delayed or incomplete data
