Staff Software Engineer

What you'll do

• Set the product and technical direction for the agent and vertical applications, including interaction design, guardrails, and stable interfaces to robot platform APIs.
• Lead cross-functional delivery and production hardening, including reliability, secure key management, offline modes, and release engineering.
• Build agent evaluation systems and quality metrics, turn customer failures into regression cases, and mentor engineers.

What they ask for

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including hands-on AI work such as shipping an LLM-powered product, building model evaluation systems, or production data work for AI/ML.
• Fluency in agent loops and tool calling, prompt and context management, structured output, model selection and fallbacks, and token/latency economics.
• Experience building evaluation datasets, harnesses, or regression gates for nondeterministic systems and using them for launch decisions.
• Product ownership involving direct user engagement and decisions about what to build.

Nice to have

• TypeScript/Node.js fluency; range across React, Python, C++, and Kubernetes.
• Experience serving operational, domain-heavy users, such as in manufacturing, logistics, or field operations.

AI focus

Build and productize an LLM-powered agent for programming industrial robots through conversation; develop agent evaluations, quality metrics, and release gates. This is not a model-training research role.
