San Francisco, California, United States Chef Robotics Full time

Chef Robotics is on a mission to accelerate the advent of intelligent machines in the physical world. As the rise of LLMs like ChatGPT has shown, AI has the potential to drive immense change. However, we believe AI's biggest impact will be in the physical world, given industries like manufacturing, food, and transportation represent 90% of global GDP. We're starting with food, with a goal to put an intelligent robot in every commercial kitchen in the world. We have signed multiple multi-year contracts with various large food companies and we are growing fast. We're backed by investors like Kleiner Perkins, Construct, Bloomberg BETA and Promus Ventures.

Chef is looking for a Software Engineer focused on robot performance, infrastructure, and tooling to help us scale our fleet of robots. You will collaborate with Engineering, Product, and Applications teams to evaluate and maintain the performance, reliability, and usability of our robots, and build the necessary tooling and analytics capabilities to do so.

  • Develop internal dashboards & tools to uncover insights from robot-generated production data and communicate to the entire company
  • Build data pipelines for ingesting, processing, and serving robot-generated data such as logs and telemetry using industry best practices
  • Perform root-cause-analysis to isolate mission-critical performance issues
  • Develop and maintain test and release processes to identify and resolve issues before they reach production
  • Develop automated and semi-automated test frameworks
  • Work with the robotics & perception teams to develop cloud-native simulation and training pipelines
