Robotics System Integration Engineer

Robotics System Integration Engineer

About Fyve By

Fyve By is a startup building advanced perception systems for airports. We use LiDAR and camera sensors to track aircraft and other objects in real-time, processing data on-premises and relaying it to cloud services. Our product is deploying nationwide, and we're looking for talented engineers to help us scale.

About the Role

We’re looking for engineers who thrive on building the infrastructure that makes robotic systems reliable, observable, and scalable. You’ll design and maintain systems that maximize system uptime, automate deployment and accelerate data collection and evaluation pipelines. Strong skills in diagnostics, observability, and debugging complex distributed systems will be key.

What You’ll Do

• Act as a technical bridge between hardware, firmware, and software teams, ensuring tight integration, clear ownership, and smooth handoffs from prototype to production
• Build and maintain Docker-based deployment infrastructure, including container orchestration, logging, and automated updates across field-deployed edge devices.
• Design and implement health monitoring and observability tooling — thermal monitoring, network latency tracking, uptime alerting — so the team has real-time visibility into every deployed system.
• Set up and maintain hardware-in-the-loop testing to catch integration issues before hardware reaches customer sites.
• Debug and resolve issues across the full stack, from hardware interfaces and sensor drivers to network communication and cloud connectivity.
• Optimize networking across edge devices, including data transfer between multiple LiDAR and camera streams.
• Travel occasionally to hangar sites to observe deployments, troubleshoot on-site, and bring field learnings back into the infrastructure.

Requirements

• 3-5 years of experience in robotics, perception systems, or sensor integration
• Strong proficiency in Python and C++
• Experience with ROS2 in production environments
• Hands-on experience with Docker in deployment contexts (containerization, logging, orchestration)
• Proven experience working on hardware integration or complex networked industrial equipment
• Bachelor’s or Master’s (preferred) degree in Computer Science or Engineering, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related fields

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building deployment and provisioning systems at scale
• Background in aviation or aerospace environments
• Experience with cloud infrastructure and edge-cloud communication (AWS, Temporal, Kubernetes)
• Practical understanding of network fundamentals (DNS, DHCP, TCP/IP, routing, switching, MQTT, DDS)
• Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, or similar)

Compensation & Benefits

$100k - $150k, equity options, unlimited PTO

Location

We're based in Atlanta and offer hybrid and remote options. We prefer candidates located in or near the Atlanta area, as occasional travel to hangar sites and in-person collaboration will be part of the role.

Fyve By is a team of about 10 people building something new. If you want to own a critical part of a product that's shipping nationwide and grow into a leadership role, we'd love to hear from you.
