Core Responsibilities:
- Deployment Components: Implement and own components of the deployment and on-robot inference pipeline.
- Telemetry & KPIs: Build telemetry, logging, and KPI-tracking that surface how policies behave in the field.
- Reliability & Performance: Improve reliability and performance of real-time inference and rollout tooling.
- Debugging: Debug issues spanning application code, models, and hardware, often under production urgency.
- Collaboration: Partner with policy and infra teams to move models from training into deployment.
Required Qualifications:
- Software Engineering: Strong fundamentals and experience shipping production services or systems.
- Ownership: The ability to own components independently and operate them reliably in production.
- Full-Stack Debugging: Comfort debugging across the stack, from application logic down to hardware limits.
- Operational Mindset: A pragmatic, ownership-minded approach to on-call and operational work.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with edge/embedded deployment, real-time systems, or ML inference.
