This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We're an in-person company. We build faster that way.

In this role, you'll

 * Architect, build, and maintain highly-available data pipelines for robot video, telemetry, and demonstration data
 * Own the path from robot to training set: edge ingestion, MoQ/WebTransport streaming, storage, indexing, and retrieval
 * Work with ML and robotics engineers to make fleet data immediately usable for training and evaluation
 * Improve throughput, reliability, and cost across the full data path
 * Build tooling that lets the team find, inspect, and trust the data
 * Help set technical direction for data and infrastructure as the fleet scales
