Forward Deployed Engineer Robotics (Roboto Ai)

Forward Deployed Engineer Robotics (Roboto Ai)

At Roboto, we're building the software infrastructure for the golden age of roboticsa platform that can ingest, search, and analyze the vast amounts of data produced by robots. From cameras and lidars to batteries and motors, Roboto makes multimodal data easy to manage and quick to analyze with AI.

Our team brings experience from Amazon Robotics, AWS, Google, Cruise, and the Allen Institute for AI, and we're fortunate to be backed by leading investors. Together, we're working to make a generational impact on how robots are built, helping companies to deploy safer, smarter, and more capable systems.

As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll work directly with some of the world's leading robotics teams to help them get the most out of Roboto. This is a deeply technical and high-impact role at the heart of our customer interactions. You'll gain a unique vantage point across the robotics industry : one week supporting a drone company to implement fleet-wide anomaly detection, the next accelerating data curation for a robotic foundation model. You'll develop a deep understanding of our customer workflows, helping them implement solutions, and translating insights into continuous product improvements. You'll also create new resources like technical blog posts and walkthroughs to introduce customers to our latest features.

We're looking for someone who :

• Has deep technical expertise : 5+ years of experience in robotics, software engineering, or data engineering, ideally with high-stakes systems or autonomy stacks.
• Communicates clearly : You listen carefully and express technical ideas with confidence and empathy, whether in writing or conversation, to diverse stakeholders.
• Thinks in systems : You can see the big picture while diving into the details, connecting software, hardware, and operational workflows.
• Thrives in dynamic environments : You enjoy variety, can pivot between multiple projects, and solve novel problems with creativity and rigor.
• Is customer-obsessed : You love delighting customers by solving their problems, removing roadblocks, and helping them to succeed.
• Is willing to travel : You're ready to visit customer sites to support deployments, collaborate with engineering teams, and gain first-hand insights into their workflows.

Robotics is on the cusp of explosive growth. Marc Andreessen (a16z) calls it the biggest industry in the history of the planet and Jensen Huang (NVIDIA) projects humanoid robots will drive a $50 trillion market alone. What's still missing are the tools to make that growth possible. Robotics teams lack the data infrastructure and AI systems needed to build, scale, and operate their machines. At Roboto, we believe we're the right team, at the right time, to create the category-defining platform for the robotics era. Join us, and help shape the future of robotics!
