Robotics Engineer

Overview

Join to apply for the Robotics Engineer role at Deep Aware AI (YC S25).

Deep Aware AI (YC S25) is building secure, efficient, and autonomous infrastructure for the AI era. As a Robotics Engineer
, you’ll develop and integrate autonomous systems that enable 24/7 inspections, cable swaps, and maintenance in large-scale data centers. Your work will bridge the gap between physical robotics and our AI-powered Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) platform — creating the “robotic hands” for next-gen AI infrastructure.
