This Position

Our two most important stakeholders are 1) the businesses that use our robots and 2) the customers they serve.

As we deploy more robots across America each month, our goal is to deliver a best-in-class experience to both groups.

As a Founding Software Engineer (Full-Stack)
, you are critical to that goal. You will design and build features that delight businesses and their customers. Your work will be highly visible and seen by thousands of people every month.

Responsibilities

  • Design and develop software and AI features for our conversational robot
  • Implement infrastructure stability improvements

  • Comfortable with AWS or other production cloud environments
