The posting

About the Team

Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that automate repetitive manual work in real environments. We design and manufacture our hardware in-house, which means iteration, fabrication, and execution all happen under one roof.

Our software doesn't just run in the cloud — it has to deploy reliably across real robots, Jetsons, and internal systems used for testing and demos. Our engineering team works across robotics, embedded systems, and edge infrastructure, and we need strong operational foundations to support fast iteration and reliable releases.

About the Role

As a DevOps Engineer at Droyd, you will own the systems that make software deployment reliable across our robots and edge infrastructure. You will build release processes, improve deployment confidence, and create operational tooling that supports both engineering velocity and fleet reliability.

A central part of this role is dealing with the realities of Jetson-based systems: cross-compilation from x86_64 to aarch64, JetPack quirks, OTA workflows, and the infrastructure needed to keep a distributed hardware fleet working.

This role is based on-site in San Francisco, CA.

In This Role, You'll

Release & Deployment

- Build and maintain release and deployment pipelines for robots and edge systems

- Own operational workflows across local development, Jetson devices, and production environments

- Improve deployment confidence, reproducibility, and rollback safety across the fleet

Fleet & Edge Infrastructure

- Improve OTA and fleet management workflows for deployed hardware

- Handle cross-compilation workflows from x86_64 to aarch64 for Jetson-based systems

- Work on the infrastructure behind certs, JWKS, QUIC, and other reliability-critical systems

Process & Collaboration

- Work closely with robotics and software teams to standardize release, update, and system management practices

- Drive process improvements in messy real-world systems

Work Environment & Schedule

- On-site in San Francisco, CA

- Full-time

Compensation: $120K–$200K base salary, plus equity

We're Looking For Candidates Who

- Have strong DevOps or infrastructure engineering experience

- Have deep Linux and Ubuntu experience

- Have hands-on experience with JetPack and Jetson-based systems

- Have experience with Docker Compose, systemd, fleet management, or OTA workflows

- Can design practical deployment systems for hardware and edge environments

- Have strong technical judgment and can drive process improvements in messy real-world systems

Nice to have:

- Experience with Balena or Balena Etcher

- Experience with embedded Linux or robotics deployments

- Experience supporting cert, auth, or transport infrastructure in production systems

About Droyd

Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that operate in real production environments. We design the hardware, develop the control stack, and generate the data that enables generalist robotics.

If we do this right, robots stop being demos and start being infrastructure.

Join us and help build the systems that make it real.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
