Agility Robotics is a pioneer. Our robot, Digit, is the first to be sold into workplaces across the globe. Our team is differentiated by its expertise in imagining, engineering, and delivering robots with advanced mobility, dexterity, intelligence, and efficiency -- robots specifically designed to work alongside people, in spaces built for people. Every day, we break through engineering challenges and invent new solutions and capabilities that will one day make robots commonplace and approachable. This work is our passion and our responsibility: our mission is to make businesses more productive and people’s lives more fulfilling.
About the Role
Join the cutting-edge team building the data platform that powers fleet-scale humanoid robotics. As a Senior Software Engineer on our Data Platform team, you will play a pivotal role in designing, developing, and maintaining the infrastructure that enables efficient ingestion, processing, and analysis of massive datasets generated by our robots. Your work will directly contribute to improving robot performance, operational insights, and scaling our cloud-based systems.
About the Work
- Data Ingestion: Design and implement scalable data pipelines for ingesting and processing telemetry, logs and sensor data from our fleet of robots and associated cloud software
- Data Agents: Develop and maintain data ingestion agents running directly on robot software to ingest high volume data in low connectivity environments.
- Data Formats: Maintain and develop data formats and protocols optimized for transmission, storage and query of data recordings, sensor data and telemetry.
- Observability systems: Develop and maintain observability systems using tools like fluentbit, OpenTelemetry etc enabling real-time monitoring and analytics of fleet operations.
- Big Data Processing: Implement solutions to prepare high volume, high velocity data for analysis using technologies such as Spark, Kafka or equivalent
- Cloud Platform: Build and optimize tools for internal stakeholders for business intelligence and long-horizon fleet analytics and forecasting using existing tools like AWS S3, Athena, Sagemaker etc.
- IoT integration: Leverage IoT experience to improve data collection and processing pipelines from robot sensors and edge devices.
About You
- 5+ years of strong experience in building and scaling cloud-based data platforms with familiarity in cloud providers like AWS, GCP or Azure.
- Proficient in big data frameworks like Spark, Kafka, Beam, Flink etc
- Familiarity with OSS data formats like Parquet, Arrow, Iceberg and protocols like Avro and Protobuf.
- Experience with observability tools(e.g. OpenTelemetry, Prometheus etc) and implementing metrics, tracing and logging systems
- Proficiency in languages like Python, Java or Scala (any JVM) and a solid understanding of distributed systems and microservices architectures.
Bonus Qualifications:
- Experience with Robotics, Autonomous Vehicles, or other sensor heavy workloads will be strongly preferred.
- Knowledge of IoT systems, edge computing or working with embedded devices is nice-to-have.
- Experience with Kubernetes
- Experience with Bazel/Blaze or other build systems
- Experience with C++, Rust, TypeScript
- Experience with robot data formats like mcap, ROS etc and data playback and visualization tooling like Foxglove etc.
