You’ll work alongside experienced engineers while taking on meaningful ownership.

What We Do

We are the Platform Services team responsible for orchestrating vertical lift cells, a critical control point in how packages move through the system.

We build services that coordinate lift behavior in real time, focusing on efficiency and performance. This includes solving optimization problems around movement and flow, where incremental improvements have measurable system impact. We also develop shared platform services used by multiple teams, working at the intersection of distributed systems and physical automation.

What You’ll Do

  • Contribute to building and maintaining core services for lift orchestration and platform systems.
  • Write production-quality code in C# / .NET (and related technologies).
  • Help improve system performance, reliability, and observability.
  • Work with senior engineers to debug and resolve production issues.
  • Learn to reason about real-time system behavior and distributed interactions.
  • Use data and metrics to understand and improve system performance.
  • Contribute ideas and take ownership of features or improvements.

What You’ll Need

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related.
  • 0–3 years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Experience with hardware-adjacent systems (robotics, automation, etc.).
  • Initiative to identify problems and create solutions.
  • Strong fundamentals in algorithms, data structures, and problem-solving.
  • Experience in one or more programming languages (C#, Java, Python, etc.).
  • Interest in systems programming, distributed systems, or real-world applications.
  • Willingness to learn and grow in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

Our environment

  • Up to 10% of travel may be required. Employees must have a valid driver’s license and the ability to drive and/or fly to client and other customer locations.
  • The employee is responsible for owning a credit card and managing expenses personally to be reimbursed on a bi-weekly basis.
