Overview
Union Technologies is reindustrializing America's defense manufacturing base with a first-of-its-kind Factories-as-a-Stockpile™ model, integrating advanced robotics, manufacturing, and software into sovereign factory systems at scale. Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, UNION is dedicated to restoring America's industrial strength and guaranteeing deterrence for the century ahead.
We recently emerged from stealth with $50M in funding led by top-tier venture investors and strategic partners. Read more in our Press Release Overview
Union Technologies is reindustrializing America's defense manufacturing from our Dallas headquarters. We're seeking an early-career
Robotics Software Engineer
who is sharp, relentlessly motivated, and ready to camp on a factory floor until the production line hums. If you're passionate about writing rock-solid code that directly moves metal-and you crave outsized ownership, mentorship, and impact-we'll invest heavily in you. Responsibilities
Ship production-grade code for
Fabric , our real-time integration layer connecting robots, CNCs, sensors, and PLCs to the Faction MES. Solve complex latency, fault-tolerance, and synchronization challenges. Set up and debug new robotic cells on-site, including overnight and weekend efforts as necessary. Ensure code reliability through rigorous testing, observability instrumentation, and clear documentation. Collaborate closely with controls engineers, roboticists, and manufacturing teams to translate requirements into deployed capabilities. Continuously improve Fabric's performance and scalability; proactively suggest and execute architectural upgrades. Requirements Location:
Currently based in Dallas-Fort Worth area
or
able and willing to relocate immediately. Bias for Action:
Demonstrated end-to-end ownership of at least one significant project (academic, personal, internship, or open-source). Provide examples of working code. Hands-on Hardware Curiosity:
Proven experience building, debugging, or troubleshooting hardware-related projects (robotics, drones, automotive, 3D printing, etc.). Solid Coding Fundamentals:
Strong proficiency in at least one of
Rust, Go, C++, or Java , with the discipline to deliver maintainable, high-quality code. Extreme Ownership Mindset:
Willingness and enthusiasm to work hands-on, including extended factory-floor hours, until the job is done. Learning Agility:
Ability to rapidly acquire knowledge of new protocols, hardware integrations, and manufacturing processes without extensive guidance. Clear Communication:
Strong written and verbal skills to effectively collaborate within cross-functional teams. Bonus Qualifications Experience with industrial communication protocols (OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus, EtherCAT) or PLC programming. Familiarity with real-time control systems, motion libraries, or sensor data processing. Contributions to open-source robotics, embedded, or automation projects. Exposure to SCADA systems, Industrial IoT stacks, or OT cybersecurity. Join the mission. We'll handle the move.
Exceptional talent shouldn't be bound by geography. If you're ready to relocate to
Dallas, TX
and join us in reindustrializing America's defense backbone, we'll make it easy-and for those who move quickly, additional incentives may be available.
