Job Title : Robotics Software Engineer
Location : Hybrid – Pune (Remote Considered)
Type : Full-time
About Destro AI :
Destro AI is building the global intelligence layer for robotics — the agentic decision-making brain that tells any robot what to do, when, and why across complex warehouse workflows. While most robotics companies focus on autonomy and sensors, Destro solves the real bottleneck : robots don’t understand workflows.
Role Overview :
We’re looking for a Founding Software Engineer who can take ownership of our fragmented codebases — and productionize, integrate, and harden it into a robust, scalable, enterprise-ready solution that can run in both cloud and on-prem environments. This is a mission-critical role where you’ll work directly with the founding team, own deployment architecture, and prepare the stack for live enterprise pilot launches.
What You’ll Own :
- Refactor MVP codebases into a unified, modular platform
- Build backend APIs, scalable services, and data flows using Python
- Own DevOps, CI / CD, and infrastructure for on-prem and cloud-native deployments
- Containerize everything (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Build secure auth, RBAC, and observability for production readiness
- Implement real-time data processing, MQTT / gRPC APIs, Redis streams, etc.
