Software Engineer, Infrastructure

About the role

At XDOF, we're at an inflection point. Frontier labs are racing to build general-purpose robots, and high-quality training data is the bottleneck. We're building the foundation behind the foundation models – the data collection systems, operational capability, exabyte-scale data warehouse, and software toolchain – to help our partners drive the field forward. Infrastructure engineers build the platform that support our ever-increasing scale of data collection. Sample projects include: - building an orchestration system to run computations upon data ingestion - designing an internal dev platform for researchers to test their ideas over the dataset - managing a multi-tenant data lake BASELINE SKILLS: - a bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science or related field - fluency with Python YOU MIGHT BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU: - have had previous experience with large-scale data processing and distributed systems - have prior experience with AI or robotics - are very comfortable working in 0->1 environments - are mission-driven and passionate about robotics: work at XDOF is fast-paced and constant. We hope you love what you're going to be doing, because you'll be doing a lot of it!
