Job description

About Maven

Maven Robotics designs, builds, and deploys intelligent robotics for logistics and manufacturing. Maven is building the first general-purpose robotics system for industrial work. Our mission is to activate autonomous labor at scale and build toward infinitely elastic industrial capacity. We’re a team of engineers, researchers, and operators who have spent our careers working on the hardest problems in AI, robotics, engineering, and autonomous systems. We work at the intersection of advanced research and real-world engineering, turning ideas into prototypes and deployed systems.

About Maven

Maven Robotics designs, builds, and deploys intelligent robotics for logistics and manufacturing. Maven is building the first general-purpose robotics system for industrial work. Our mission is to activate autonomous labor at scale and build toward infinitely elastic industrial capacity. We’re a team of engineers, researchers, and operators who have spent our careers working on the hardest problems in AI, robotics, engineering, and autonomous systems. We work at the intersection of advanced research and real-world engineering, turning ideas into prototypes and deployed systems.

At Maven, we build around the realities of industrial work. The robots are designed from first principles for complex physical environments and rigorous commercial standards. They master real tasks that deliver immediate impact, industrial-grade reliability, and intelligence that compounds at scale. We’re growing an ambitious team of people who think in systems, move quickly, and are builders at heart.

About The Role

As a Robotics Fleet Software Engineer at Maven Robotics, you will lead the development of software and services that enable the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of large robot fleets across multiple customer facilities. Your work will span everything from data pipelines to operator-facing interfaces, collaborating closely with Field Operations, Information Systems, DevOps, MLOps, and Platform Software teams to build scalable, high-performance solutions.

What You’ll Do

• Design and implement the back-end services for everything that’s needed to keep a large fleet of robots working efficiently, including:
• Integration with customer systems
• Management of software updates
• Real-time fleet orchestration & coordination
• Robot onboarding and provisioning
• Health & performance monitoring
• Anonymized data collection
• Develop data pipelines for secure real-time streaming between robots, edge devices, and cloud services that are robust to breaks in connectivity
• Implement on-robot software that enables secure, access-controlled teleoperation and assignment execution
• Create intuitive, performant front-end web applications for robot operators, facility managers, and Maven engineers
• Work with customers to understand their particular operational requirements, and propose elegant solutions that minimize the footprint of any tailoring

What We’re Looking For

• BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related field
• 5+ years full-stack software development experience
• Experience in the development of data-intensive web applications backed by streaming data sources
• Knowledge of frameworks for front-end web development, such as React
• Knowledge of real-time data pipelines & cloud databases
• Ability to take ownership of a large, strategically important development project and drive its success
• Willingness to step in and support other teams when we have tight deadlines and problems to solve

Nice to Have

• Experience in the development of scalable multi-agent orchestration software
• Awareness of robot to fleet manager communication standards
• Hands-on experience in the operation of robot fleets
