Jobbeschreibung

Gravis Robotics is a high-growth Series A start-up backed by SoftBank, bringing Physical AI to the construction industry, turning heavy construction machines into autonomous robots. Gravis began as an ETH Zurich spin-out, and our unique combination of learning-based automation and augmented remote control lets one operator safely conduct a fleet of earthmoving machines in a gamified environment. Backed by deep robotics research and now deployed across multiple countries with leading construction and equipment partners, our team is rapidly growing to bring this technology to a trillion-dollar industry.

At Gravis, we build high tech systems that give machine operators super human capabilities. To adapt in real time to changes in the environment the Gravis Rack fuses data from LiDAR, cameras, GNSS, and hydraulics into an autonomous control system. While the system is capable of operating in an isolated environment for many applications local or remote connectivity is crucial.

As a software engineer with focus on networking, you will be driving the requirements gathering, component evaluation and testing, development, rollout and monitoring of the networking infrastructure that connects our robots. The networks you build span all dimensions: from the network that connects the sensors to the compute nodes on-robot, via robot-to-robots connections, all the way to global cloud connections via satellite links. You will work at the intersection of our Hardware, Perception and Platform teams to ensure the required data reaches our fleet of 20 to 50 ton robots all across the world fast and reliably!.

• Own the network arch across three layers: the on machine network carrying sensor and control data, the worksite network linking machines and site infrastructure over wireless LAN or cellular and the site backhaul providing remote connectivity over 5G, satellite or fixed links.
• Support and maintain field deployments with special networking needs & customer integrations
• Secure all product related network activity by applying state-of-the-art security mechanisms
• Shape linux-level routing configuration for Policy-Based Routing prioritizing traffic and ensuring reliability in multi-WAN environments.

We recognise that excellent candidates come from diverse backgrounds with varied combinations of skills.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in Network Engineering, Software Engineering, or similar roles
• Proven experience owning the network stack in a product end-to-end
• Experience architecting networks with strict timing and synchronization requirements for aligning sensor data. (e.g. using PTP)
• Proven experience dimensioning, configuring and deploying in-product network architectures
• Proven experience with infrastructure as code (e.g. ansible, terraform, nix/nixOS)

• Strong Software Engineering skills and solid experience with related tooling (e.g. clangd, cargo, pyrefly)
• Proven experience with monitoring and observability tooling (e.g. grafana, prometheus)
• Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker, Podman)
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Experience working with high bandwidth, low latency robotics data (camera streams, point clouds, timeseries data)
• Experience with Robotics & DevOps related tooling (Foxglove, Prometheus, Grafana)
• Experience with Hardware-in-the-loop testing setups
• Regulatory and spectrum management experience for deployment around the world.

This is an opportunity to join a dynamic, multidisciplinary team and to be part of a company that is reshaping heavy construction.
