Key skills for this role
We're hiring a Robotics Software Engineer, Field Deployment and Support, to own the software that runs MothershipOS in live customer warehouses. This role is responsible for writing and maintaining production code, not solely for troubleshooting it, and will serve as the engineering presence on-site when systems need to be brought up, stabilized, or restored to full function.
Destro AI is building the intelligence layer for robotics — the system that coordinates robots, humans, and workflows across complex real-world operations. Founded by former leaders from HAI Robotics, Dexterity, and Matic, Destro is built on a simple thesis: robotics has solved movement, but not decision-making. Destro is backed by investors who have previously invested in and built companies like Brex, Figma, Notion, and Instacart.
Destro's MothershipOS is a shared brain across all robots, unlocking complex factory and warehouse workflows. Unlike traditional systems that rely on local intelligence on each robot, Destro brings global intelligence across the entire operation. Destro recently closed its Seed round at one of the highest valuations for a robotics company at this stage, and is already deploying in production with large enterprise operators.

Software
Write, test, and maintain the software services that run MothershipOS at customer sites, including deployment tooling and diagnostic utilities.
Design and build internal tools that make field deployments faster and more repeatable.
Translate field learnings into production-hardening fixes and improvements in the core codebase.
Maintain clear technical documentation and runbooks so issues can be diagnosed consistently across sites.
Field Deployment
Deploy and validate Destro's software stack in live warehouses, working directly with customer operations, IT, and engineering teams.
Own production issues end-to-end during launch and stabilization, including off-hours incidents.
Improve uptime, throughput, and reliability of deployed systems through both code and infrastructure changes.
Systems and Infrastructure
Build and maintain containerized services (Docker Compose) running on Destro-managed servers and edge devices.
Work with cloud infrastructure (GCP) for image management, versioning, and deployment tooling.
Configure and troubleshoot networking, including VLANs, DHCP, internal DNS, and certificate-based service security.
Debug across the full stack: robot state faults, sensor issues, API failures, container networking, database queries, and monitoring dashboards.
2 to 6 years of experience in systems engineering, robotics software, backend engineering, infrastructure, or field engineering, with genuine software development experience rather than field support alone.
Comfortable being paged off-hours and traveling on short notice.
Able to operate independently in ambiguous, high-pressure environments without a fully specified solution.
Calm under pressure, direct with customers, and demonstrates strong ownership.
Destro AI is a private robotics-as-a-service company coordinating robots and workflows for warehouse and factory operations.
