Information TechnologyFull-time
You will build the web applications through which people understand and operate our robots—the dashboards, monitoring tools, and customer-facing interfaces that turn a fleet of robots and a firehose of robot data into something people can see, trust, and act on. This is a fullstack role with a strong front-end center of gravity: you'll craft polished, responsive interfaces while also building the APIs and services behind them.
Responsibilities
- Web Application Development: Design and build customer-facing and operational web applications—fleet monitoring dashboards, status and telemetry views, and control and configuration UIs.
- Front-End Craft: Create clean, responsive, performant user interfaces, with attention to usability, clarity, and the realities of displaying live operational data.
- Full-Stack Ownership: Build and maintain the backend APIs and services that power these applications, owning features from data model through UI.
- Data Presentation: Turn robot and fleet data—telemetry, health, events, analytics—into clear, actionable views, working with the pipelines that deliver that data.
- Cloud Services: Develop and operate the web-facing services in the cloud, with attention to reliability, security, and scalability.
- Collaboration: Partner with fleet, robot software, and product stakeholders to understand what customers and operators need and translate it into great software.
- Quality & Iteration: Build well-tested, maintainable software and iterate quickly based on real user feedback.
Requirements
- Fullstack Web Experience: Proven experience building and shipping production web applications end-to-end, with a strong front-end focus.
- Front-End Depth: Deep proficiency with a modern JavaScript/TypeScript framework and the fundamentals of performant, accessible, responsive UI.
- Backend & APIs: Solid experience designing and building web APIs and the services behind them.
- Cloud Fluency: Working experience deploying and operating web applications on a major cloud provider.
- Data-Driven UIs: Experience building interfaces that present live, data-dense, or real-time information clearly.
- Software Craftsmanship: Track record of writing well-tested, maintainable code and caring about the quality of the end-user experience.
- Ownership: Ability to take features from ambiguous requirements through design, implementation, and deployment.
Preferred Qualifications
- Interest in or experience with robotics, IoT, fleet management, or other systems that surface real-world device data.
- Experience with real-time data in the browser (websockets, streaming, live dashboards).
- Familiarity with data visualization libraries and techniques.
- Experience with authentication, authorization, and multi-tenant or customer-facing security concerns.
- Exposure to the data pipeline and analytics side (warehouses, query layers, telemetry stores).
Benefits
- Competitive total compensation program, including salary, annual cash bonus, and company equity.
- Company-subsidized insurance programs.
- 401(k) with company match.
- Flexible PTO.
- Daily lunch.
