Software Engineer at Stateful Robotics Ltd

Software Engineer

Join an Oxford spin-out building the intelligence layer for robots in unpredictable real-world environments. As a foundational engineer, you will develop a mission control platform that provides robots with persistent memory and long-horizon decision-making. You will work across the full stack to turn cutting-edge research into production-ready software products.

Location: Oxford, UK

Why this role is remarkable:

• Work at the frontier of physical AI with world-leading researchers, including founders who previously built and sold Latent Logic to Waymo.
• Join a well-funded team that recently closed a $4.8M pre-seed round led by Amadeus Capital Partners and Oxford Science Enterprises.
• Gain massive ownership and breadth, shipping software that runs on real robots deployed in infrastructure, construction, and logistics pilot sites.

What you will do:

• Build and iterate on backend APIs and customer-facing UI features to enable complex interactions with core robotics technology.
• Design and deploy software across diverse environments, including cloud, on-premise, and direct on-robot installations.
• Collaborate with research teams to integrate algorithmic developments and ensure high quality through CI/CD and testing best practices.

The ideal candidate:

• Has 2+ years of professional experience with a strong grasp of Python, TypeScript, or C++ in complex or safety-critical domains.
• Is a delivery-focused engineer comfortable moving between backend, frontend, and DevOps in a fast-paced startup environment.
• Demonstrates proficiency with AI-assisted development tools like Claude or Copilot and has a passion for applying AI to real-world systems.
