Key Responsibilities Design, code, and deploy Erlang/OTP micro-services that host AI inference, rules engines, and data streaming for real-time robotics orchestration. Partner with data scientists to convert Python-based models (TensorFlow, PyTorch, ONNX) into low-latency production services accessible through REST / gRPC endpoints. Optimise concurrency, supervision trees, and message-passing patterns to meet stringent Refactor legacy algorithms for scalability, memory footprint, and observability—instrumenting with Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, and Grafana metrics. Guide code reviews, champion functional-programming best practices, and mentor engineers on Erlang concurrency patterns. Build automated load-test simulations that validate system behaviour at >10 000 events per second before every release. Skill Set & Qualifications 4 + years professional software engineering experience; 2 + years hands-on Erlang/OTP in production environments. Proven record building or maintaining AI/ML or real-time decision systems (stream processing, feature stores, online inference). Deep understanding of distributed, high-availability architectures, supervision hierarchies, and hot-code upgrades. Proficiency with SQL/NoSQL datastores and event buses (Kafka, RabbitMQ, NATS). Working knowledge of containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes or Nomad) in CI/CD pipelines. Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field. Bonus points for experience in robotics, edge computing, or telecom-grade real-time systems. Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship. What Makes This Role Exciting Direct ownership of green-field Erlang services powering AI-driven robotics at global scale. Hybrid schedule - three days each week collaborating onsite with a world-class engineering group in Menlo Park, CA, two days remote for deep-work focus.
