About the Role
We’re hiring generalist software engineers who can work across the entire company. Your work could touch anything in our software stack, from developing data pipelines to scripting hardware integrations or shipping internal tools. The only constant is that you’ll have a problem to solve.
Responsibilities
- Building backend services and APIs for our data platform and customer-facing product
- Writing data processing pipelines to transform and validate incoming robotics datasets
- Building the orchestration layer for workflows that leverage real robotic hardware
- Contributing to our data collection application across the full stack
- Scripting integrations between hardware systems, cloud infrastructure, and software services
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science or a related field
- Fluency with Python and at least one other language
- Ability to quickly ramp up in unfamiliar codebases, tools, and problem domains
- Comfort operating across the stack without needing a narrow specialization to be productive
- Experience building and shipping software in fast-moving environments where your role wasn’t clearly defined
- Experience working across multiple domains (backend, frontend, data, infra, scripting)
- Experience building systems that interact with physical hardware or manage compute-heavy workloads
- Prior experience with AI, robotics, or large-scale data systems
- Comfortable working in 0→1 environments
- Mission-driven and passionate about robotics

About the Company
- 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.
