Friday Systems builds AI that allows industrial robots to adapt to dynamic warehouse environments. We focus on high-throughput palletizing and related logistic tasks, by building distributed, cloud-native systems where reliability and scalability are non-negotiable.
Responsibilities
- Design distributed systems, build backend (80%) and frontend (20%) services, manage cloud infrastructure and ensure quality through testing and reviews.
- Build and deploy backend services in Java and contribute to projects in Python or C++ when required.
- Develop and maintain RESTful APIs and web frontends using Angular.
- Containerize services with Docker, automate operations with Bash scripting, and deploy to Cloud environments (AWS) with CI/CD best practices.
- Manage databases, ensuring reliability, performance, and proper data modeling.
- Guarantee software quality by writing comprehensive tests, performing code reviews, and ensuring adherence to best engineering practices.
- Provide mentorship and leadership to foster a culture of quality and innovation.
Qualifications
- Track record in software engineering, architecture and design patterns. 8+ years of development experience, with at least 5 years in a senior or lead role.
- Strong background developing and maintaining applications in Java and Spring framework (this is a must requirement). Working knowledge of Python and / or C++ is a strong advantage.
- Hands-on experience developing modern web frontends with Angular.
- Experience with Docker, Bash scripting, Linux environments, and network fundamentals for real-world production systems.
- Solid understanding of databases (SQL and NoSQL) and ability to make architectural decisions, balancing performance and scalability.
- Strong experience with cloud platforms, ideally AWS, including deployment, scaling, and monitoring of services.
- Experience in testing methodologies (unit, integration, end-to-end) and commitment to high-quality code.
