Senior Software Engineer, Edge Systems

About Us

Are you ready to build the future of supply chain? At Gather AI, we’re not just creating software; we’re pioneering a new era of warehouse intelligence. We’ve developed a groundbreaking, vision-powered platform that uses autonomous drones and existing equipment to capture real-time data, completely digitizing workflows that have historically been manual and error-prone. This means facilities operate smarter, safer, and more efficiently, ultimately redefining “on-time, in full” delivery. If you’re looking for an opportunity to contribute to truly transformative technology and make a significant impact in a vital industry, Gather AI is the place for you. We’re leading the charge in the rapidly evolving robotics industry, and we invite you to join us in reshaping the global supply chain, one intelligent warehouse at a time.

About The Team

Gather’s Drone and Swapper teams build and operate the software that keeps autonomous drones flying, docking, and charging in live warehouse environments. The team works across mobile applications, onboard software, cloud services, and the robotics platform, and they do it in close proximity to the hardware itself. Debugging here means walking to the lab, not filing a ticket and waiting.

Responsibilities

• Own and improve the software stack supporting the drone and swapper platform, including mobile applications, diagnostics, communications, configuration management, and OTA update systems
• Investigate and resolve production issues that require direct hardware access, turning around fixes with minimal latency
• Build and improve logging and diagnostics infrastructure that makes the system observable and easier to debug across mobile, cloud, and robotics layers
• Collaborate daily with Mobile, Autonomy, Backend, and QA teams to ship reliable software across the full system
• Own features end-to-end from investigation through deployment, including support for customer-facing issues in production
• Contribute to the long-term architecture of a unified software platform supporting both drone and swapper systems

Requirements

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience shipping and supporting production systems
• Mobile application development experience in Swift (iOS preferred) and/or Kotlin (Android a plus)
• Strong debugging skills across complex, multi-component production systems, with the ability to independently investigate ambiguous failures
• Solid networking fundamentals including REST APIs, TCP/IP, WebSockets or MQTT
• Comfort working directly with hardware during development and debugging, not just in simulation or emulation

Nice to Have

• Experience with robotics, embedded systems, or hardware-integrated software
• Linux development or debugging experience
• Familiarity with OTA update systems, device management, or cloud synchronization for distributed devices
• CI/CD experience for mobile or embedded applications
