Laelaps AI is building the edge-to-cloud intelligence that lets autonomous systems take on dangerous, critical work. Think real-time robotics, modern cloud, and mission-critical reliability; engineering the future of security today. We’re a well-funded founding team in Zürich backed by visionary investors and advisors.
Why this role rocks
* Founding scope & ownership: Architect our platform end-to-end, from real-time operator dashboards to backend services and streaming pipelines.
* Tangible impact: Bridge robots and cloud into one cohesive system that operates in the real world, not just demos.
* Fast path to leadership: Clear runway to Head of Software Engineering as we scale.
What you'll do
Core Product
* Build real-time UIs for security operators ( TypeScript, React ).
* Design APIs, services, auth/audit, and persistence ( Python, Node.js ).
* Own high-volume video & telemetry ingestion (RTSP/WebRTC) with robust eventing and back-pressure.
The robotics bridge
* Integrate cloud services with ROS 2/DDS ; craft clean, resilient interfaces.
* Tune QoS to balance latency vs. reliability for mission-critical paths.
Reliability & culture
* Set engineering standards, CI/CD, testing, and documentation.
* Stand up observability (metrics/logs/traces) and lead incident response.
You might be a great fit if you
* Have shipped scalable, real-time software end-to-end (we value what you’ve built over credentials).
* Are fluent in TypeScript/React and at least one backend language ( Python preferred ).
* Know your way around Docker, CI/CD, and deploying to AWS/GCP/Azure or edge environments.
* Understand real-time systems (WebSockets, queues) and the latency/perf trade-offs.
* Thrive in early-stage environments; bias to action, learn fast, collaborate well.
Nice-to-haves
* ROS 2/DDS or robotics-to-cloud integration.
* Video streaming pipelines ( RTSP/WebRTC ) or embedded systems.
* Kubernetes, IaC, modern observability (Prometheus, Grafana).
* Robot learning concepts (locomotion, perception, navigation) and IsaacSim .
What we offer
* Competitive salary + meaningful founding-level equity .
* Top-tier tools: the hardware/software you need to excel.
* Location: On-site in Zürich, Switzerland. Relocation and work authorization support available for exceptional candidates.
* Mission & culture: Strengthen collective security and resilience with a tight-knit, international team. We’re serious about the work, not about ourselves.
