Co-Founder at Robo - A Custom Software Solutions Company. At Robo, our mission is simple:

If it rolls, floats or flies, we put IoT on the Mov e.

We are an expert engineering firm that specializes in helping manufacturers of specialized vehicles make their products smart. We create the technology that connects all parts of a vehicle, allowing them to communicate with each other and their users.

This transformation is analogous to the upgrade from a basic phone to a smartphone—suddenly, users can control everything from a single touchscreen or their mobile app. Robo is the engineering team responsible for adding the "brains" to these vehicles.

By seamlessly integrating hardware with software and combining deep engineering knowledge with advanced AI capabilities, our expert team revolutionizes how operators and passengers interact with high-value vehicles. We create adaptive solutions that anticipate user needs and enhance operational efficiency.

Role Description Robo is seeking an exceptional

Mobile Architect & Developer

to join our team and drive the technical vision for a best-in-class, customer-facing IoT application for a major client. This role offers a unique opportunity to shape the future of connected experiences by building innovative features that make owning and operating complex products easier and more enjoyable.

You’ll be embedded with a world-class team, contributing to one of the most advanced connected product solutions in its industry. This is a hands‑on leadership role where you’ll spend approximately

50% of your time on architectural design and 50% on active development , while directing and mentoring a team of 2 developers.

This is a hybrid role located in Wixom, MI. While some work from home is acceptable, the role requires regular in‑person collaboration for architecture sessions and hands‑on testing with connected products at our Wixom lab facility.

Why You Should Consider This Role

Your code doesn't just update a database; it unlocks doors, monitors tire pressure at 70mph, and manages off‑grid power systems.

You won't be stuck in a cubicle. You will work in our Wixom Innovation Lab, collaborating directly with electrical engineers, testing on physical prototypes, and using oscilloscopes alongside debuggers.

In our lean, high‑performance team, you are the final authority on mobile architecture. You will define the standards that others struggle to build.
