You'll be the bridge between our AI research team and production - building the tooling, pipelines, and deployment systems that let models go from experiment to factory floor. This is a role for someone who thinks in systems but speaks ML: you understand what researchers need, and you know how to build reliable software around it. What You'll Do * Build and maintain the software infrastructure that supports robot learning, including model training, experiment tracking, versioning, and deployment. * Develop pipelines and tools for collecting, processing, and curating large-scale robotic sensor and telemetry data. * Support deployment of AI models onto robotic systems, including simulation, hardware integration, runtime monitoring, and feedback loops from field data. * Build internal tools that accelerate AI engineering workflows across dataset exploration, testing, evaluation, and productionisation. * Partner closely with AI researchers and robotics engineers to turn model requirements into robust, scalable software systems., We're looking for a Software Engineer with deep experience in C++ and Python to lead the development of core systems powering our intelligent robotic platforms. In this role, you'll architect and implement high-performance software at the intersection of real-time robotics, perception, and machine learning. You'll take technical ownership of critical components, mentor team members, and help shape the future of our robotics software stack. What You'll Do * Drive software architecture decisions across robotics and perception systems. * Design, implement, and optimize performance-critical components of the robotics and perception stack in C++ and Python. * Develop and integrate 3D point cloud processing algorithms for weld joint perception, including registration, pose estimation, segmentation, and geometric reasoning. * Lead the integration of machine learning models into real-time systems, ensuring low-latency, high-reliability performance. * Design and implement gRPC/Protobuf service interfaces with attention to schema versioning and backward-compatible API evolution. * Instrument perception systems for production observability, building telemetry pipelines that connect algorithmic metrics to business outcomes., * Daily free lunch to keep you fueled and connected with the team ## Related Videos - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Exploring the Power of gRPC-Gateway for Writing RESTful Services](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2072-exploring-the-power-of-grpc-gateway-for-writing-restful-services) - [Robots are coming into the wild!
