About the role
At Rhoda AI, we’re building the next generation of generalist intelligent robots. We own the full robotics stack from high-performance hardware and robot systems to the infrastructure and state-of-the-art foundation world models that control our robots. Our robots are designed to be generalists capable of operating in complex, real-world environments and handling long-tail edge cases, made possible by our cutting edge research and end-to-end system design. We've raised over $450M and are investing aggressively in model research, infrastructure, hardware development, and manufacturing scale-up to make generalist robotics a reality.
We're looking for a Software Engineer to help build and operate the systems that power our model deployment stack. You'll be responsible for running large foundation models efficiently and reliably across cloud and on-prem environments, with a focus on resource management, scheduling, and infrastructure scalability.
What You'll Do
- Design and operate large-scale infrastructure to run model workloads across cloud and on-prem environments
- Build and maintain Kubernetes-based deployment pipelines for managing distributed ML workloads
- Own resource scheduling and orchestration across GPU clusters — optimizing utilization, workload balancing, and cost-performance tradeoffs
- Integrate and manage ML frameworks and model serving systems (e.g., Triton, Ray Serve, TorchServe) across research and production use cases
- Build tooling for model deployment, versioning, and observability to support fast iteration cycles
- Contribute to the reliability and scalability of the infrastructure stack as model complexity and deployment footprint grow
What We're Looking For
- 3+ years of experience in ML infrastructure, MLOps, or distributed systems
- Strong proficiency with Kubernetes and containerized deployment pipelines
- Experience with GPU orchestration and resource scheduling across large distributed jobs
- Experience with cloud providers (e.g., AWS, GCP) and hybrid cloud/on-prem infrastructure
- Familiarity with ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, JAX) and model serving tools (e.g., Triton, Ray Serve, TorchServe)
- Strong debugging instincts and ownership mentality — comfortable driving issues to resolution across the stack
Nice to Have (But Not Required)
- Experience with streaming systems or high-throughput data transport (e.g., Kafka, gRPC, NATS)
- Background in networking, low-latency systems, or network-aware scheduling
- Experience with edge/cloud hybrid deployment patterns and the latency constraints that come with them
- Familiarity with on-robot or embedded inference environments
- Experience with large-scale cluster topology and scheduling systems (e.g., SLURM, Ray, Volcano)
Why This Role
- Own the infrastructure layer that connects our foundation models to real robot behavior — a direct line between your work and what the robot does in the world
- Be part of building the infrastructure stack for one of the most technically ambitious robotics companies in the world
