Jobbeschreibung

Your mission

At Wandelbots, we are transforming the way people interact with robots. We are building the robotics platform that combines traditional manufacturing with modern software engineering - enabling developers to build robotics applications using modern software engineering principles on top of a reliable robotics core. Cameras are becoming a core part of this platform. From vision-guided robotics to AI-driven applications, the ability to manipulate the physical world depends on sensing the physical world first.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will build the foundation for integrating cameras into our cloud-native platform. Instead of developing one-off integrations, you will design and implement a scalable integration framework that enables both Wandelbots engineers and camera manufacturers to integrate new devices with minimal effort.

Together with other Wandelbots engineers, you will define the architecture, build the first production-ready camera drivers yourself, and create the SDK and interfaces that make future integrations repeatable. Working closely with infrastructure & robotics engineers, product teams, and hardware partners, you will shape how vision devices become a substantial part of the Wandelbots ecosystem. The camera integration framework will become a component of the Wandelbots platform, running inside our Kubernetes infrastructure alongside the rest of our robotics stack.

Your profile

Role

This role sits at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, backend engineering, and industrial vision. We don't expect anyone to be an expert in every area. Instead, we're looking for someone with a strong engineering foundation, who has previously designed APIs and has deep expertise in at least one of the following domains:

• Industrial Vision & Camera Integration: You have integrated industrial cameras into production systems and understand how they are used in automation projects.
• Camera Development: You have worked for a camera manufacturer or built camera software, SDKs, or device interfaces.
• Cloud-native Hardware Platforms: You have experience building Kubernetes-based systems that discover, manage, and control hardware devices, including custom resources and Kubernetes controllers.

Further Required Skills

• Several years of experience building backend systems (e.g. Python, Go)
• API design and versioning
• Comfortable developing containerized software and familiar with Kubernetes-based deployments.
• Ability to take ownership of architecture, make technical decisions, and drive projects from concept to production

Awesome If You Have

• Strong experience extending Kubernetes using Custom Resources, Operators, or Controllers.
• Experience with Kubernetes networking for hardware and network-attached devices.
• Experience integrating vendor SDKs behind a common abstraction layer.
• Experience with Linux device management and exposing hardware into containers
• Experience with industrial cameras, media pipelines, or camera protocols
• Understanding of computer vision concepts such as calibration, depth imaging, and point clouds.
• Experience with video streaming and media handling.
• Background in robotics or industrial automation.

What We Care About

We are looking for an engineer who enjoys building platforms rather than one-off integrations. You should be comfortable navigating ambiguity, making architectural decisions, and creating systems that others can successfully build upon.

This is an opportunity to build the foundation for every camera integration at Wandelbots. You won't just implement the first integrations - you'll define the architecture, SDK, and developer experience that camera manufacturers, partners, and internal teams will use for years to come.

Why us?

• Make an impact! Work on an innovative, deep tech product that adds value to the robotics world and to society! Become a crucial part of something new, big and exciting where you can truly make an impact!
• Our teams inspire! Cross-functional communication is key. You'll get to know many of your 100+ colleagues. Collaborate with great people on our international teams who value knowledge sharing and unique ways of doing things!
