Software Engineer, Edge & Field Systems

About the team: Mind Robotics is building robots that learn from real-world experience — and the quality of that experience starts with how we collect and process data. Our field data collection system puts capture rigs on the factory floor at manufacturing sites, generating the raw sensor data that trains everything downstream. Our teleoperations program turns human demonstrations into high-quality data that grounds our AI models in physical reality. Both flow through annotation and quality control into our training platform. About the role: As a Software Engineer on Edge & Field Systems, you'll be one of the founding engineers on the team that owns our application layer, reporting to our Integration Manager. The systems work today; your job is to help harden and productionize them for scale — from 10 capture stations at one site to hundreds across multiple OEM plants, and from a handful of teleop stations to a multi-shift fleet. This is early, hands-on, 0-to-1 engineering: you'll ship code that runs on real hardware in real factories, and see its effect on robot behavior. You will: Build the field capture stack — edge software for our data collection rigs: device management, sensor orchestration, and real-time data quality monitoring that holds up on a factory floor, with workflows optimized for I/O-, compute-, and network-bound constraintsShip the teleop stack — collection, evaluation, and operator tooling for our teleoperation stations, including metrics, task management, and the workflows our robot operators use every dayBuild and contribute to integration and validation testing for field software, including hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test setups that catch failures before they reach a live siteBuild monitoring and dashboards that give visibility into fleet health, capture quality, and station uptime across sites, accounting for intermittent connectivity and bounded bandwidth in the fieldMake deployment repeatable — build tooling and configuration systems that make onboarding a new manufacturing site a config change, not a custom engineering project, including device provisioning workflowsSupport the field — debug issues on live systems, instrument for observability, and work directly with site operations staff and robot operators who depend on your software Requirements: 2+ years of software engineering experience building production systemsStrong programming fundamentals and comfort working across the stack — edge devices, services, and local data pipelinesExperience with at least one of: edge computing, device or fleet management, real-time systems, robotics or sensor systemsBias for ownership: you've taken features or systems from prototype to production and supported them in the fieldClear communication and close collaboration with product, research, and operations partnersHands-on experience with sensor data (video, depth, IMU, force/torque) and the infrastructure to collect and monitor it in real time is a plusExperience with hardware-in-the-loop or simulation-based testing (e.g., Isaac Sim, Gazebo, MuJoCo) is a plusBackground in robotics, autonomous vehicles, industrial IoT, or teleoperation systems is a plusExposure to manufacturing or other industrial environments is a plus
