Robotics Engineer

About the Role \ DeepAware AI (YC S25) is building secure, efficient, and autonomous infrastructure for the AI era. As a Robotics Engineer , you’ll develop and integrate autonomous systems that enable 24/7 inspections, cable swaps, and maintenance in large-scale data centers. Your work will bridge the gap between physical robotics and our AI-powered Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) platform — creating the “robotic hands” for next-gen AI infrastructure.
Responsibilities

• Design robotic manipulation and navigation systems optimized for constrained, high-density environments
• Integrate vision systems for automated inspections and anomaly detection
• Collaborate with AI/ML engineers to connect robotics control with real-time DCIM data pipelines
• Prototype, test, and refine robotic hardware/software at pilot deployment sites
• Ensure reliability, safety, and scalability of robotics solutions for continuous operations
  

Requirements

• Proficiency with robotics frameworks such as ROS/ROS2, MoveIt, and OpenCV
• Hands-on experience in autonomous navigation and robotic manipulation
• Ability to work across hardware and software components, including embedded systems and control algorithms
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to iterate quickly in a startup environment
  

Nice-to-Have

• Experience with industrial robotics or data center operations
• Knowledge of computer vision model training and deployment
• Familiarity with robotic arm kinematics, path planning, and sensor fusion
  

Location: \ Bay Area, CA preferred
Why DeepAware? \ You’ll be at the forefront of integrating robotics into AI infrastructure — working on mission-critical systems that keep the world’s AI running securely and sustainably. Your contributions will directly shape how data centers operate in the coming decade. #J-18808-Ljbffr
