Senior Systems Engineer; Go & Python, Networking, Low-Latency Systems

Overview

Summary Mujin is the future of industrial robotic systems in production and distribution environments. Our technology gives robots perception and awareness, enabling them to take on more advanced tasks. We aim to revolutionize the use of robotics within industry to free human resources from labor-intensive tasks to focus on more intellectual challenges. We are seeking a Sr. Golang Developer A – Cloud Automation to join our team.

The USA is a Senior Golang Developer , you will design and implement scalable cloud services that are integrated with advanced robotics systems. You will architect distributed solutions, optimize performance for real-time robotic operations, and ensure secure, reliable connectivity between cloud and edge devices. This role is ideal for developers passionate about cloud technologies and robotics innovation.

• Design and develop cloud-native applications in Go, Python, and C++; drive language selection based on performance and operational requirements
• Architect microservices-based systems and implement robust APIs (REST/gRPC) for high-volume, low-latency data exchange with robotic controllers
• Own the networking layer between cloud services, on-prem controllers, and edge devices — including VPN tunneling, NAT traversal, firewall rules, iptables, and routing
• Build and maintain secure communication channels: TLS/mTLS pipelines, certificate lifecycle management, DNS configuration, and SSH tunneling
• Design and implement real-time data paths over Web Socket, WebRTC, HTTP/2, QUIC, and Wire Guard
• Own Postgre
  
  SQL schema design, query optimization, index tuning, and deep performance profiling; understand internals including MVCC, WAL, the query planner, and vacuum behavior
• Build solutions for telemetry ingestion, storage, and processing from distributed robotic fleets
• Leverage AWS, GCP, and Azure services — including serverless, containerization (Docker), and orchestration (Kubernetes) as well as self-hosted bare-metal environments
• Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines and champion Dev Ops best practices across the engineering org
• Mentor junior developers and set the bar for code quality, system design, and documentation standards

• Bachelor's in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field and 5+ years of experience in the following:
• Professional software development experience in cloud or systems environments
• Hands-on experience with Go (Golang) or combination of Go, Python and C/C++ (Must have recent experience with Golang or Python)
• Strong foundation in distributed systems, microservices architecture, and API design (Graph
  
  QL/RESTful/gRPC)
• Comfortable reading protocol specs, packet captures, and source code to diagnose deep issues
• Comfortable handling sensitive/confidential information with discretion and strong judgment
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, able to explain technical issues clearly to non-technical users and to global stakeholders across time zones
• Self-directed and organized: able to manage competing priorities as the primary on-site IT support for the US office

• Master degree in relevant field
• Experience with real-time data streaming, IoT integration, or edge device connectivity
• Knowledge of ROS/ROS2 and robotic system communication protocols
• Familiarity with eBPF, kernel networking internals, or SDN/service meshes
• Prior work on embedded or real-time systems (industrial controllers, warehouse robotics)
• Experience operating in multi-cloud or hybrid cloud + on-prem environments
• Contributions to open-source networking, database, or systems projects

• Travel Requirement:
  Less than 5%
• Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer
• Ability to work extended hours as required
