Senior Software Engineer, Production Suite

About this job

About The Role We are setting up a new team to build our Production Suite: the software product that gets our autonomy platform onto new drone hardware. This is not about assembling the physical drone. It is about everything that has to happen in software once the hardware is built, so a finished drone leaves production running on our stack. As we move toward supporting production volumes in the thousands, installing our software on a new platform needs to become a high quality workflow someone runs at the production site, not something that pulls on engineering capacity per unit. Production Suite is how we get there. It ships alongside each new release of our autonomy stack and wraps installation, configuration, acceptance testing, and sign-off into a guided flow. The work is less about deep architecture and more about getting a lot of moving parts to work together cleanly: software packaging, deployment to edge devices, test automation, Linux plumbing, and an operator experience reliable enough that a non-engineer at a production site can run it on their own. We are looking for several engineers to join this team early. As one of the first in, you will help shape what we build and how we build it. You will have a broad responsibility from low-level flashing and test orchestration up to the interface the production operator actually interacts with. What You Will Do Build the Production Suite: a software package that ships to a production site and takes a drone from factory-fresh hardware to a unit running our autonomy stack and passing acceptance Design and implement the tooling that flashes our software onto new drone platforms, configures it, runs factory acceptance tests, and reports results back to Operations Work across the stack as needed: Linux command line, Python scripting, Docker and Kubernetes, SSH and remote execution, web APIs, data formats, basic hooks and integrations Reuse and adapt parts of our existing end-to-end test suite so factory acceptance tests share a foundation with how we test in engineering Make the whole thing usable for production operators: clear enough that the workflow is mostly pressing next, red or green, with no hidden steps Work closely with Operations, Test Automation, Hardware Enablement, and the teams building the autonomy stack itself to keep integration reliable end to end Why This Role Matters Production Suite is one of the pieces of work where getting it wrong directly caps how much of our core product reaches the field. If we cannot scale production, we cannot scale the company. This team sits on the critical path for delivering volume, and the people we hire into this role will have an outsized effect on whether we hit it. What we are looking for We are open to varieties of seniority in this team. Generally, we are looking for a broad, practical senior engineer. Someone who has built this kind of system before, or something close to it, and knows what good looks like when hardware, software, and a factory floor have to work together. You are not scared of the mix. You move between Python, a Dockerfile, a Kubernetes manifest, an SSH session, and a JSON-to-YAML conversion without losing the thread. You are pragmatic. You care more about shipping something that works than about the purest architecture. We believe the right candidate brings Several years of experience as a software engineer, ideally at companies that ship physical products (hardware, robotics, consumer electronics, networking, industrial devices) Comfort on the Linux command line Ability to move around a modern tooling landscape (containers, orchestration, CI/CD, remote execution, scripting) without needing deep expertise in any one of them. If you have not used Docker or Kubernetes h
