About the role

As a Full Stack Developer, you will help build user-facing applications and backend services for our Physical AI stack in China. You will work with the existing Suzhou Physical AI team on Level 2 robotics skills, including picking and placing applications, motion-planning related components, robotics connectivity, engineering tools, and operator-facing workflows.

This role combines modern web development with backend API engineering and industrial software integration. You will translate product and architecture concepts into reliable, maintainable solutions that connect intelligent robotics capabilities with intuitive user experiences.

If you enjoy owning features end to end, from React interfaces to Python services and APIs, and want to apply your skills in a cutting-edge robotics environment, this role offers meaningful technical challenges and direct product impact.

Key responsibilities

• Designing, developing, testing, and maintaining full stack applications for Physical AI and robotics use cases

• Building responsive, maintainable user interfaces with React and TypeScript

• Developing robust backend services and REST APIs with Python and FastAPI

• Defining clear frontend-backend contracts, data models, validation rules, error handling, and API documentation

• Integrating applications with robotics services, motion-planning components, vision systems, device connectivity, and engineering tools

• Implementing authentication, authorization, configuration, logging, diagnostics, and secure coding practices

• Creating automated unit, integration, API, and UI tests and contributing to CI/CD workflows

• Improving application performance, reliability, usability, and maintainability through sound software architecture

• Collaborating with product owners, architects, algorithm developers, DevOps engineers, and robotics specialists

• Supporting deployment, troubleshooting, and validation in lab, pilot, and customer-oriented environments

• Applying AI-assisted engineering methods to code generation, documentation, testing, debugging, and quality improvement

Required qualifications

• Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Automation, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

• Studying abroad is a plus, but not required

• 5+ years of professional software development experience, including ownership of production-grade web applications

• Strong hands-on programming experience with Python

• Strong hands-on frontend development experience with React and TypeScript

• Strong hands-on backend and API development experience with FastAPI

• Solid understanding of REST APIs, asynchronous programming, data validation, error handling, and API testing

• Experience with relational or document databases, source control workflows, automated testing, and modern build toolchains

• Good understanding of software architecture, modular design, code quality, security, and maintainability

• Practical problem-solving mindset and comfort working in fast-moving, cross-functional engineering environments

Preferred qualifications

• Experience with robotics, industrial automation, engineering software, or hardware/software integration

• Experience with real-time status visualization, workflow editors, dashboards, or operator interfaces

• Familiarity with containers, CI/CD, observability, and deployment to edge, on-premises, or cloud environments

• Experience with WebSocket-based communication, event-driven systems, or integration-heavy applications

• Exposure to AI/ML-enabled products, computer vision, vision-language models, or agentic applications

• Experience working at a multinational corporation (MNC) is a plus

Languages

• Fluency in English and Chinese

Ways of working

• You are proactive, collaborative, and highly execution-oriented

• You can take ownership of a feature across frontend, backend, testing, and integration

• You balance user experience with architecture quality, reliability, and delivery needs

• You communicate clearly across software, robotics, algorithm, and product disciplines

• You are curious about new methods and continuously improve engineering practices

What we offer you

• Attractive remuneration package aligned with local market conditions

• Flexible working models where applicable

• Continuous learning and technical growth in industrial AI, robotics software, and modern engineering practices

• Opportunity to shape products and engineering capabilities for a strategically important robotics team

• Collaboration with local and global experts across robotics, software, and industrial AI

• Innovative environment focused on real industrial use cases and customer impact

The individual benefits are subject to local regulatory, contractual, or corporate conditions.
