Software Engineer, Data Platform
Mind Robotics, Palo Alto
The role
As a Software Engineer working on the data platform, you'll be one of the founding engineers on the team that owns our application layer, reporting to our Head of Application Engineering. The systems work today; your job is to help harden and productionize them for scale — ingesting from a growing number of sources and field sites, and turning raw captures into training-ready data faster and at higher quality. This is early, hands-on, 0-to-1 engineering: you'll build the pipelines and tooling that determine what data actually makes it into our models, and see the effect on robot behavior.
What you will do
- Build data ingestion pipelines from multiple sources, including our own field capture and teleop stacks
- Build automatic data validation systems that catch quality issues before data reaches annotation or training
- Build and improve annotation ingestion, tooling, and workflows to increase labelling efficiency and throughput
- Own data quality and diversity
