Role

Who you are

You are a builder, a strategist, and a hands-on engineer. You set the technical direction, write code when needed, and make the hard decisions that keep the system fast, reliable, and simple
10+ years of experience in software engineering, 3+ years leading teams that ship production systems
Deep understanding of distributed systems, data pipelines, APIs, and cloud architecture
Expert in Python, Go, or C++, with experience deploying large-scale systems on AWS or GCP
Proven ability to design and operate systems that stay fast and stable under load
Relentless focus on simplicity, scalability, and execution
Able to dive into code, debug live systems, and make clear, data-driven decisions
Experience with robotics, IoT, or real-time control systems preferred

What the job involves

You will own all systems that connect the digital and physical layers, deployment tools, fleet management, customer interfaces, and internal operations platforms
The mission is simple: create software that scales flawlessly from hundreds to tens of thousands of robots
Own the architecture and execution of all operational and customer-facing systems
Design scalable backends for real-time data, control, and monitoring of global robot fleets
Lead the development of internal tools that power logistics, service, and manufacturing operations
Build the customer-facing apps that control, monitor, and manage robots in the field
Maintain end-to-end reliability: performance, data integrity, uptime
Lead from the front, review critical code, fix what’s broken, and raise the bar every day
Hire and develop exceptional engineers who move with speed and precision
Work across hardware, AI, and manufacturing teams to make sure the entire system functions as one product

Our take

The field of robotics has advanced massively in the last few years, to the point where androids no longer belong to the realm of science fiction. 1X, formerly known as Halodi Robotics, is developing androids capable of human-like movement and behaviour, to employ in workplaces and homes across the globe.

1X's androids are strong enough to move shipments but gentle enough to handle fragile items, making them ideal for work in retail storerooms or distribution centers. In addition, they are able to open doors and take elevators, meaning it is simple to fit them into workplaces without making large adjustments.

Its home models have perhaps had the most attention, as the media and public are intrigued by the idea of an "intelligent android assistant" for the home. Although the adoption of working androids is still in its early stages, 1X has certainly made a splash in the space and may well be one to watch as it helps to shape the future of robotics.
