Description

Why RoboForce RoboForce is an AI robotics company developing Physical AI–powered Robo-Labor for dull, dirty, and dangerous work. The company’s robots are engineered for demanding industrial environments, with a focus on real-world deployment and scalability. We are seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to architect the next evolution of our robotics infrastructure. As we scale our engineering team and robot fleet, you will design and implement a robust, fully containerized development and release ecosystem that compiles complex AI models, packages them securely, and deploys them reliably to fleets operating in dynamic environments. You won’t just be maintaining servers—you will be building the nervous system of our robot operations. Responsibilities Edge Containerization Strategy: Design and maintain high-performance container environments for robots, ensuring parity across development, simulation, and production deployments. Robotics CI/CD Pipelines: Architect sophisticated CI/CD pipelines that go beyond standard linting, integrating automated build tests, simulation-based regression testing, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) validation. Release Engineering & OTA Deployment: Define and own the software release lifecycle, building automated systems to package, version, and deploy secure over-the-air (OTA) updates to robot fleets in the field. Build System Optimization: Partner closely with C++ engineers to optimize build times (CMake/Colcon), manage dependencies, and deliver a reliable “one-command” developer setup. Fleet Observability: Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting to provide real-time visibility into system health, resource usage, and application performance across deployed robots. Requirements Experience: 5+ years of professional experience in DevOps, SRE, or build/release engineering. Container Expertise: Deep mastery of Docker, including multi-stage builds, layer caching strategies, and secure access to hardware resources (GPU, USB, sensors). CI/CD Architecture: Proven experience designing complex CI/CD systems from scratch, with strong understanding of caching, parallelization, and artifact management for compiled codebases. Linux Systems Proficiency: Strong command of Linux systems, including kernel concepts, systems, networking, device drivers, and debugging system-level issues inside containers. Build Systems Knowledge: Familiarity with compiling large-scale C++ projects using CMake or Bazel, with a focus on reliability and developer productivity. Requires 5 days/week in-office collaboration with the teams. Bonus Qualifications Robotics Software Exposure: Familiarity with modern robotics software stacks. Simulation at Scale: Experience running headless simulators (Gazebo, MuJoCo, Isaac Sim, Unity) inside CI environments. Embedded Platforms: Hands-on experience with NVIDIA Jetson or other embedded GPU systems. Benefits Competitive stock options/equity programs. Health, dental, and vision insurance, 401(k) plan. Visa sponsorship and green card support for qualified candidates. Lunches and dinners, a fully stocked kitchen, and regular team-building events.

Responsibilities

The Senior DevOps Engineer will design and implement a robust, fully containerized development and release ecosystem for robotics infrastructure. Responsibilities include architecting CI/CD pipelines, managing software release lifecycles, and ensuring system observability across deployed robots.
