About You





You will enjoy a career at InDro Robotics if you have a passion for developing user-friendly and visually appealing applications and a proven track record of delivering high-quality work. Most of your time will be spent on the application and service layers; the rest reaches into the edge compute and networking that connect our robots to them. A robotics background is not required, but curiosity about what sits at the other end of the connection is.

This role is for you if you thrive in cross-functional environments, collaborating with individuals across many disciplines to deliver the best solutions possible. You have a strong sense of ownership and can drive projects through to completion. With our core in R&D;, you will always be tasked to create the uncreated, again and again.

Responsibilities

- Design and implement performant backend endpoints and high-quality frontend components for our operator-facing applications.
- Build server-side services and ingest pipelines moving imagery and sensor data into cloud storage and processing, preserving timing and spatial metadata.
- Design and maintain data models for mission history, asset tracking, and automated reconciliation against customer systems of record.
- Develop customer-centric prototypes for new product explorations and productionize the ones that advance.
- Build and maintain the integration layer between our application stack and the robotics middleware,

exposing state, transforms, and live media.
- Deploy services to cloud infrastructure and edge compute, and own the release automation for both.
- Design and troubleshoot the network paths between edge devices, ground infrastructure, and cloud services, including behaviour under intermittent or bandwidth-limited connectivity.
- Troubleshoot and resolve complex software issues spanning the application,



the transport, and the edge device.

Required

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- 5+ years designing and developing web applications, front end through back end.
- Front-end proficiency: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and a modern framework (React, Angular, or

Vue.js).
- Server-side proficiency: Node.js, Python, or Java. RESTful API design and versioning.
- Databases: SQL. Schema design, indexing, query performance work.
- Real-time and streaming: persistent connections, event-driven state, live media, and reconnection handling.
- Networking in practice: routing and addressing across subnets, VPNs and tunnelling, firewalls and

NAT traversal, TLS, and packet capture for diagnosis.
- Cloud platforms (AWS or Azure): object storage, compute, queueing.
- Docker in production, including multi-architecture images built for ARM targets. Kubernetes or comparable orchestration is desirable.
- Strong Linux proficiency, including embedded Linux on edge hardware (Jetson or comparable ARM

SoC): headless administration, service management, remote deployment.

ROS experience is a significant asset. If you do not have it, we expect you to be productive in it early;

we will teach you our ecosystem, not the fundamentals.

Assets

- Robotics middleware, autonomy stacks, or flight and drive control software.
- Camera and sensor pipelines: capture, encoding, transport.
- Wireless and cellular connectivity for mobile or remote devices: LTE/5G modems, mesh or point-to-point radio links, fleet-scale remote access.
- Interfaces that render spatial data: maps, 3D scenes, live overlays.
- Field time with deployed robotic systems.
