About The Opportunity
We're looking for a product-minded Senior Software Engineer to join our backend team to build the brains of our automated restaurants and the foundation upon which our robotic systems rely. In this role, you will help design and implement the expansion of our current systems to accommodate new robotic solutions while maintaining the reliability and performance of our live production restaurants.
You will work primarily with Elixir and the Phoenix framework to construct real-time distributed systems that serve as critical facilitators between our cloud-based infrastructure, on-site robotic hardware, frontend applications, and the rest of Wonder software. You will partner with cross-functional teams to design and deploy high-impact features, help guide technical discussions, and mentor other engineers.
The Impact You Will Make
* Orchestrate the Kitchen: Design and implement solutions that manage complex state across multiple distributed systems and guarantee zero data loss in mission-critical workflows, particularly around order fulfillment, robotic communication and human-machine interaction.
* Bridge Cloud and Hardware: Design new infrastructure that spans the cloud and on-premise resources, including event-driven architectures, Postgres databases, WebSocket protocols, and containerized applications.
* Produce High Quality Software: Uphold reliability, advocate for iterative review and testing procedures, manage the release process, and continue to monitor performance.
* Guide Technical Outcomes: Plan how to build new features by considering product requirements, assessing tradeoffs and collaborating with peers, and specify the tasks needed to complete a project.
* Improve Processes: bring industry-best practices to the team, automate repetitive tasks, and have a learn-forward attitude.
* Communicate Effectively: Write thorough and clear specs, fill gaps in documentation, and provide, seek and incorporate feedback.
What You Bring to the Table
* Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
* 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building highly concurrent, distributed systems and shipping them to production.
* Strong system design skills, a product-focused mindset, and a track record of owning features end-to-end.
* Proficiency in Elixir, including OTP, and the Phoenix framework.
* Proficiency with PostgreSQL and relational database design.
* Experience designing, building, and consuming WebSocket events, REST APIs, webhooks, and other message-based systems.
* Experience designing and deploying infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code. We use Terraform.
* A pragmatic approach to problem solving and the ability to troubleshoot complex technical obstacles.
* Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to facilitate technical discussions with product, design, and operations partners.
This role requires a minimum of 3 days a week in the office, with additional days as needed based on project demands.
This role is based in our Boston office in Charlestown, MA.
