Software Development Software Engineer Jobs in Salem, OR

Hybrid- Any Office (Fremont, CA, Salem, OR, or Pittsburgh, PA)

Agility's commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers—tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential.

Join the team building the data backbone for fleet-scale humanoid robotics. As a Software Engineer III on our Data Platform team, you will implement and scale the infrastructure required to ingest, process, and synchronize massive datasets from our robots. You will focus on the technical challenges of handling multimodal log data—ensuring that high-frequency sensor data, video feeds, and telemetry are perfectly aligned for playback and ML training.

• Data Ingestion: Design and implement scalable data pipelines for ingesting and processing telemetry, logs and sensor data from our fleet of robots and associated cloud software
• Multimodal Data Integration: Develop systems to handle complex multimodal logs, ensuring precise synchronization between video, audio, IMU, and joint-state data for downstream analysis and robot "black box" reconstruction/playback.
• Edge Data Agents: Contribute to the development of data ingestion agents running on-robot to manage high-volume data throughput in variable connectivity environments.
• Data Optimization: Implement and optimize data formats (e.g., MCAP, Parquet) specifically tuned for the storage and rapid querying of rich multimodal robotics recordings.
• Observability systems: Develop and maintain observability systems using tools like fluentbit, OpenTelemetry etc enabling real-time monitoring and analytics of fleet operations.
• Distributed Processing: Use Spark, Kafka, or Flink to transform raw robot data into structured datasets ready for business intelligence and long-horizon fleet analytics.
• Stakeholder Collaboration: Work closely with AI and Hardware teams to ensure data tools meet the needs of those training the next generation of humanoid models.
• Cloud Platform: Build and optimize tools for internal stakeholders for business intelligence and long-horizon fleet analytics and forecasting using existing tools like AWS S3, Athena, Sagemaker etc.

• 3-5 years of experience building and scaling cloud-based data platforms(AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Big Data Tech : Proficient in big data frameworks like Spark, Kafka, Beam, Flink etc
• Data Formats : Familiarity with OSS data formats like Parquet, Arrow, Iceberg and protocols like Avro and Protobuf.
• Experience with observability tools(e.g. OpenTelemetry, Prometheus etc) and implementing metrics, tracing and logging systems
• Strong proficiency in Python and at least one JVM language (Java or Scala), with experience in microservices.
• Proven experience handling diverse data types—specifically combining unstructured data (logs/video) with structured telemetry

• Robotics/AV Background : Experience with robot-specific data formats (MCAP, ROS bags) and visualization tools like Foxglove or RVIZ.
• Sensor Fusion : Understanding of time-sync challenges in multimodal data (e.g., PTP/NTP synchronization across sensors).
• Infrastructure : Experience with Kubernetes and containerized deployment patterns.
• Systems Programming : Familiarity with C++ or Rust for high-performance data handling at the edge.
• IoT Knowledge : Experience with edge computing, Greengrass, or managing data from embedded devices.

This a hybrid position based out of one of our Salem, Pittsburgh, or Fremont offices.
