Backend Engineer - Mid

Full-time
Milan
Posted 1 week ago

Build real-time data pipelines (video, depth, sensor streams, and more). Design and implement low-latency, high-throughput backend systems for hardware-in-the-loop robotic systems.

We're building something ambitious at the intersection of robotics, real-time data, and distributed infrastructure. While we're still in stealth, we're already assembling a world-class team - and we're hiring a Backend Engineer to help us shape the foundation. We're on a mission to make AI do dehumanizing work in factories around the world.

Build real-time data pipelines (video, depth, sensor streams, and more). Design and implement low-latency, high-throughput backend systems. Help define and scale the core infrastructure for hardware-in-the-loop robotic systems. Work on both data and infra layers - where performance matters. Collaborate closely with founders and early team members (repeat exited founders, ex-Google, PhDs).

In-person team based in Milan or Zurich. Why in-person? You sometimes need to access, physically, the robot to debug! So you need to be able to drop by the office in case.
