Job DescriptionAbout the Role
Join a fleet engineering team building the cloud services and APIs that support autonomous vessel operations. This backend-leaning role focuses on production platforms that connect vessels with the applications used to monitor and operate them.
What You'll Do
- Build and operate cloud services that ingest, process, store, and expose sensor, detection, and operational data.
- Debug, refactor, and improve an existing codebase across multiple repositories as the platform scales.
- Develop Python and TypeScript services and APIs that connect vessels with monitoring and operations applications.
- Work with application-focused teammates to provide reliable backend services for operators and downstream products.
- Design data models and database systems for operational and sensor-derived data, from initial design through production rollout.
- Deploy, monitor, and troubleshoot AWS services, improving reliability, scalability, and observability while accounting for delayed or incomplete data.
What We're Looking For
- Typically 4 to 8 years of experience building and operating production cloud or distributed systems, with a backend, platform, or infrastructure focus.
- Proficiency in both Python and TypeScript, plus experience designing APIs and working with databases and data models.
- Experience with AWS or another major cloud platform and ownership of services from design through deployment and operation.
- Comfort working in legacy codebases across multiple repositories with limited guidance, and a bachelor's degree.
- Experience with streaming or real-time data, telemetry, sensor or geospatial data, IoT, robotics, autonomous vehicles, aerospace, or defense is beneficial.
- Comfort working in the defense sector and authorization to work in the United States without employer visa sponsorship are required.
