Description

We are seeking a Software Development Engineer to to build the foundational data systems that power our robotics and machine learning development. In this role, you will design and implement the infrastructure for collecting, storing, processing, and transforming the vast amounts of data generated by our robots—from sensor telemetry and video streams to operational logs and performance metrics.

You will own the services, APIs, and distributed systems that ingest, store, process, and serve it reliably at scale. You will work across the stack and partner directly with applied scientists and robotics engineers, turning their evolving needs into durable platform capabilities.

Key job responsibilities
- Design, build, and operate scalable services and distributed systems for ingesting, storing, and serving large volumes of multimodal robotics data

- Own components end-to-end: design, implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and on-call

- Build well-designed APIs and tooling that let researchers and engineers discover, query, and process large datasets efficiently

- Develop real-time and batch processing systems for preparing data for ML training

- Partner with science and engineering teams to translate evolving requirements into reusable platform capabilities

About the team
Fauna Robotics, an Amazon company, is building capable, safe, and genuinely delightful robots for everyday life. Our goal is simple: make robots people actually want to live and interact with in everyday human spaces.
We believe that future won't arrive until building for robotics becomes far more accessible. Today, too much effort is spent reinventing the fundamentals. We're changing that by developing tightly integrated hardware and software systems that make it faster, safer, and more intuitive to create real-world robotic products.
Our work spans the full stack: mechanical design, control systems, dynamic modeling, and intelligent software. The focus is not just functionality, but experience. We're building robots that feel responsive, expressive, and genuinely useful.
At Fauna, you'll work at the frontier of this space, helping define how robots move, manipulate, and interact with people in natural environments. It's an opportunity to solve hard problems across hardware and software with a team focused on making robotics accessible and joyful to build.
If you care about making robotics real for everyone and building systems that are as delightful as they are capable, we'd like to hear from yo
