Create developer tools and APIs for new workflows and integrations.

Debug and optimize across software, hardware, and physical systems.

What We're Looking For

At least 3 years of experience building production-grade software systems end to end.

Strong proficiency in Python or Rust, with solid engineering fundamentals.

Experience designing distributed systems, APIs, networking, and asynchronous communication patterns.

Experience building software at an early-stage startup and taking ownership in an ambiguous environment.

Background in robotics, physical AI, hardware integration, lab automation, embedded systems, AI agents, or ML infrastructure is valuable.

Ability to integrate and debug across hardware, firmware, and software layers.

Biology experience is not required.
