Systems Development Engineer, Fauna

Fauna Robotics is seeking a talented and motivated Systems Development Engineer to help build and operate the systems infrastructure behind reliable robotic system design validation and production test. This role will sit close to hardware test engineering reliability manufacturing and product development with a focus on designing deploying and operating the systems environments and automation infrastructure that automate test workflows reduce test overhead improve cycle time and increase product quality.

You will build and operate systems along the critical path for robotics reliability and test infrastructure including the compute networking cloud data pipelines and workcell integration that enable automated data collection test execution metrics and alerting. You will help plan design review and support new systems capabilities that make testing more scalable repeatable observable and maintainable across engineering builds reliability testing and production validation.

The ideal candidate brings strong systems engineering and software development experience sound operational judgment and a bias toward building reliable maintainable and observable systems. This person should be comfortable working across hardware software test manufacturing and program teams; able to break ambiguous reliability and test problems into executable systems and automation work; and motivated by improving how complex robotic systems are deployed validated and scaled.

Key job responsibilities
- Work with stakeholders to define requirements identify common use cases and reduce test overhead across reliability validation and manufacturing test workflows.

- Design deploy and operate systems infrastructure and automation compute networking cloud storage and data pipelines that support reliability testing hardware validation production test data capture and failure analysis across robotic systems.

- Serve as a systems-focused member of the Reliability team working cross-functionally to improve how robotic systems are integrated instrumented deployed debugged and validated.

- Develop organized extensible and maintainable infrastructure and code; break down development needs into achievable tasks; and provide technical support to junior developers or test engineers.

- Build and improve provisioning and automation strategies for new products with a focus on reducing cycle time improving repeatability and increasing operational reliability and product quality.

- Refine best practices documentation metrics monitoring and alerting to support expanded automation system uptime and continuous improvement.

About the team
Fauna Robotics an Amazon company is building capable safe and genuinely delightful robots for everyday life. Our goal is simple: make robots people actually want to live and interact with in everyday human spaces.
We believe that future wont arrive until building for robotics becomes far more accessible. Today too much effort is spent reinventing the fundamentals. Were changing that by developing tightly integrated hardware and software systems that make it faster safer and more intuitive to create real-world robotic products.
Our work spans the full stack: mechanical design control systems dynamic modeling and intelligent software. The focus is not just functionality but experience. Were building robots that feel responsive expressive and genuinely useful.
At Fauna youll work at the frontier of this space helping define how robots move manipulate and interact with people in natural environments. Its an opportunity to solve hard problems across hardware and software with a team focused on making robotics accessible and joyful to build.
If you care about making robotics real for everyone and building systems that are as delightful as they are capable were interested in hearing from you.

- Experience with Linux/Unix
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines build processes
- Experience in automating deploying and supporting large-scale infrastructure
- Experience programming with at least one modern language such as Python Ruby Golang Java C C# Rust

- Experience with distributed systems at scale
- Experience with robotics systems
