Job details

Join a fast-growing, venture-backed robotics company that is transforming a legacy industry through cutting-edge automation, AI, and intelligent software. Backed by experienced founders and leading industry investors, the company is rapidly scaling from successful product deployments into commercial growth, building technology that combines robotics, cloud computing, and mobile applications to modernize industrial operations.

This is an opportunity to own a greenfield mobile product from day one. You’ll have the autonomy to influence the technical architecture, select technologies, and build a platform that directly supports real-world robotic systems deployed across customer sites.

The Opportunity

We’re seeking a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer to lead the development of a next-generation mobile inspection platform and its supporting cloud infrastructure. This is a highly visible, hands-on engineering role where you’ll own the complete software lifecycle—from architecture and backend services to mobile application development and deployment.

You’ll work closely with robotics, product, AI, and operations teams to build software that technicians rely on every day in fast-paced industrial environments. The ideal candidate enjoys building products from scratch, making architectural decisions, and mentoring engineers while remaining deeply involved in writing production code.

Required Skills & Experience

  • 7+ years of professional full stack software development experience
  • Strong expertise with React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks
  • Experience building and shipping production mobile applications using React Native, Flutter, native iOS/Android, or similar technologies
  • Experience designing scalable cloud-native applications (GCP preferred, AWS or Azure acceptable)
  • Strong background designing RESTful APIs and distributed systems
  • Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases
  • Experience building scalable backend services using Node.js, .NET, Java, Go, Python, or similar technologies
  • Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, or equivalent
  • Strong understanding of software architecture, clean code principles, and test automation
  • Excellent troubleshooting, communication, and technical leadership skills

Desired Skills & Experience

  • Experience building offline-first mobile applications
  • Experience implementing synchronization between mobile and cloud platforms
  • Experience with image capture, camera integration, or mobile computer vision
  • Familiarity with IoT, robotics, or edge computing environments
  • Experience with cloud messaging systems, event-driven architectures, and Pub/Sub technologies
  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, or containerized applications
  • Familiarity with automotive technology, field service applications, or industrial software
  • Experience mentoring engineers and leading technical initiatives
  • Contributions to open-source software projects are a plus

What You Will Be Doing

  • Architect, develop, and maintain a production mobile application from concept through deployment
  • Design and build scalable cloud services supporting real-time inspection workflows
  • Develop secure, scalable REST APIs connecting mobile applications, cloud infrastructure, and internal systems
  • Build intuitive, high-performance mobile and web user interfaces
  • Design backend systems for processing images, structured inspection data, and real-time events
  • Implement data pipelines, messaging systems, and cloud storage solutions
  • Establish engineering best practices around testing, CI/CD, observability, and deployment automation
  • Mentor junior engineers through code reviews and technical guidance
  • Partner with robotics, AI, hardware, product, and operations teams to deliver integrated solutions
  • Evaluate architectural tradeoffs while ensuring scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability

Tech Breakdown

  • 35% Full Stack Application Development
  • 25% Mobile Application Development
  • 20% Cloud Architecture & Backend Services
  • 10% API Design & System Integration
  • 10% Technical Leadership & Mentorship

Daily Responsibilities

  • 65% Hands-On Software Development
  • 15% Architecture & Technical Design
  • 15% Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • 5% Mentoring & Code Reviews

The Offer

  • Competitive base salary plus bonus and equity potential
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k)
  • Generous PTO and paid holidays
  • Opportunity to build a greenfield product with significant technical ownership
  • Collaborative engineering culture with direct access to leadership
  • Career growth within a rapidly scaling, venture-backed robotics company

Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis. Sponsorship is not available for this position.
