We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Backend Engineer to join our Workforce Team. In this role, you will be a key driver of the Workforce Suite—our mission-critical software ecosystem that includes the Data Navigator, Mission Controller, and Field Operator App. You won't just be writing code; you will be designing the robust, scalable systems that allow our autonomous robots to communicate, report, and operate in the world’s most challenging industrial environments. This is a high-impact role where your expertise in modern backend architecture will directly influence how humans and robots collaborate at scale.

ANYbotics is transforming industrial inspection with ANYmal, the world’s most advanced autonomous four-legged robot. Our technology is deployed globally across energy, chemicals, and mining sectors to increase safety and efficiency. To support these deployments, we build a sophisticated cloud and edge-based infrastructure. Our backend stack is centered around Node.js and TypeScript, utilizing NestJS, PostgreSQL, and MQTT to handle real-time robot telemetry and complex data orchestration. We move fast, prioritize clean architecture, and solve problems that exist at the intersection of the physical and digital worlds.

ANYbotics is a leading robotics company specializing in advanced autonomous systems. With a successful Series B financing round recently closed, we are poised for rapid growth and international expansion. Our mission is to revolutionize the robotics industry through cutting-edge technology and innovation.
