Software Engineer, Data Platform

What You Will Do

• Design and operate real-time streaming: low-latency transport, multimodal time synchronisation, network/5G‑aware delivery.
• Build batch + streaming data pipelines feeding distributed model training.
• Data modelling and storage for multimodal robot episodes (video, proprioception, control); schema and dataset versioning.
• Reliability, back pressure and throughput; collaborate with the Robotics/AI lead on the dataset contract.

• Proven track record building scalable distributed systems in production.
• Strong software‑engineering fundamentals and experience building data infrastructure.
• A data/networking wizard: deep expertise on latency, real‑time transport (WebRTC / RTP / gRPC / QUIC), and time synchronization across streams.
• Strong data engineering across streaming and batch (e.g. Kafka/Redpanda, Flink/Spark, object storage).
• Strong systems coding:
  Python plus a systems language (C++ / Rust / Go).
• Edgecloud architectures, 5G, real‑time video pipelines.
• High level of ownership, pragmatic system thinking, cross‑functional communication, affinity for real‑world chaos and unpredictable data.

• Robotics data: ROS, LeRobot, MCAP, multimodal sensor streams.
• MLOps: feature stores, data versioning (LakeFS, DVC).
• Hard real‑time systems experience.

• Compensation so you don’t have to worry: competitive base salary, calibrated to your experience.
• Entrepreneurial ESOP Package: significant equity vesting over 4 years, your skin in the game to build serious wealth as we 10x.
• Impact & Autonomy:
  Flat structure working directly alongside the CTO and cross‑functional tech team, no legacy systems, freedom to design the stack.
• Work that matters:
  Help millions live with dignity, powered by tech you helped build and deploy.
• A front‑row seat at one of Europe’s most ambitious robotics scale‑ups.

Devanthro is building physical AI for every home. We are tackling the ultimate frontier of robotics: bringing robots to real homes, living with real people and doing real work. Our path into the world starts with care for the elderly in their own home—an urgent societal need. Since making history in 2024 with the first humanoid deployed in a private residence, our momentum has exploded.

Hundreds of seniors across Germany and Switzerland tested our robots and love them. Now, backed by top‑tier investors, our fast‑growing team of technologists, operators, company builders and people who care is taking our physical AI from first successful homes to scaled deployments.

Building physical AI for real homes is an unsolved challenge, and no single person has all the answers. If you have a strong engineering foundation and the drive to figure it out, we encourage you to apply even if you don't tick every single box.

If you want to build autonomous robots that escape the lab and ship into unstructured and messy homes, this role is for you.

We are building robots with heart. Come join us.
