Design and build data systems for robotic intelligent workflows, focusing on automation, signal extraction from multimodal data, and ML model evaluation.
The summary above was generated by AI

Dyna Robotics builds general-purpose robots powered by a proprietary embodied AI foundation model with top-in-industry generalization and real-world performance. Already deployed with customers across multiple industries, our robots do commercial-grade work in the physical world. Our team comes from Google DeepMind, Meta, and Cruise, and we're backed by CRV, First Round, and other leading investors.

Position Overview

As a Software Engineer, Data Infra you are the architect of the "Laboratory" where Dyna’s robotic intelligence is refined. You won't just move data; you will build the interactive systems that bridge the gap between raw multimodal sensor streams and production-ready ML models.

This is a high-impact, hands-on role where you will design the infrastructure to visualize model performance, automate data labeling, and manage the "human-in-the-loop" workflows - such as teleoperation and skill capture - that are critical to our scaling. If you enjoy solving complex geometric problems and building the low-friction tools that empower ML researchers, you’ll thrive here.

What You’ll Do
  • Interactive Data Systems: Architect the engines and interfaces that unify raw robot logs, video, and 3D sensor data. You will enable seamless "human-in-the-loop" workflows, from episode annotation to analyzing manual interventions.

  • Signal Extraction & Geometry: Design and implement algorithms to extract structured signals (trajectories, events, 3D poses) from raw captures. Strong mathematical intuition is required to turn pixels and point clouds into ground-truth insights.

  • Evaluation & Benchmarking: Build high-performance tools to compare model-driven motion against human-captured data, helping the team quantify model progress across diverse tasks.

  • Scalable ML Pipelines: Build and operate distributed data pipelines (using Python, GCP/AWS, and Kubernetes) for the ingestion, transformation, and validation of terabytes of multimodal data.

  • Observability & Debugging: Develop visualization tools that make complex model behaviors and sensor data easy to interpret, reducing the time from "data collected" to "model trained."

  • Startup Fluidity: Collaborate across ML, Robotics, and Product teams. As an early member of the data team, you will help define the roadmap where no blueprint yet exists.

What You’ll Bring
  • The Experience: 5+ years of professional software experience, ideally with a focus on data-intensive or "human-in-the-loop" platforms.

  • Technical Stack: Proficiency in Python (NumPy, Pandas) and a solid understanding of modern backend architectures. Experience with React/TypeScript is a major plus for building internal observability tools.

  • Mathematical Core: Strong skills in algorithms and geometric calculations (e.g., coordinate transformations, 3D spatial reasoning).

  • Data Mastery: Hands-on experience with relational and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, Redis) and cloud-native infrastructure (GCP/AWS).

  • Problem-Solving: The ability to debug real-world data issues - from sensor drift to pipeline bottlenecks - independently.

Bonus Points For:
  • Experience with multimodal data (video, LiDAR, time-series) in robotics or autonomous systems.

  • Familiarity with Airflow, Kubeflow, or similar distributed batch processing systems.

  • Experience with experiment tracking frameworks like Weights & Biases or MLFlow.

  • Experience as an early hire in a fast-paced startup environment.

At Dyna Robotics, we build technology for the real world, which requires a team as diverse as the environments our robots inhabit. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to technical rigor and mutual respect.

Don’t let a checklist stop you. Data shows that underrepresented groups often only apply if they meet 100% of the criteria. We value problem-solving and grit over keyword matching. If you’re passionate about the intersection of geometry and robotics, we want to hear from you—even if you don't check every box.

What you need to know about the San Francisco Tech Scene

San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area attracts more startup funding than any other region in the world. Home to Stanford University and UC Berkeley, leading VC firms and several of the world’s most valuable companies, the Bay Area is the place to go for anyone looking to make it big in the tech industry. That said, San Francisco has a lot to offer beyond technology thanks to a thriving art and music scene, excellent food and a short drive to several of the country’s most beautiful recreational areas.

Key Facts About San Francisco Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 365,500; 13.9% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Google, Apple, Salesforce, Meta
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, cloud computing, fintech, consumer technology, software
  • Funding Landscape: $50.5 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Bessemer Venture Partners, Greylock Partners, Khosla Ventures, Kleiner Perkins
  • Research Centers and Universities: Stanford University; University of California, Berkeley; University of San Francisco; Santa Clara University; Ames Research Center; Center for AI Safety; California Institute for Regenerative Medicine
