Skills: Distributed Systems, Cloud-Native Architecture, Kubernetes, TypeScript, API Design
Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead the architecture and development of NOVA Cloud, an orchestration layer for robot programming. Design scalable service boundaries, APIs, and plugin infrastructures to enable multi-tenancy and third-party integrations.
Requires in-depth experience in designing distributed cloud-native systems and building platforms for integration. Proficiency in TypeScript, Kubernetes, and platform-level authentication/authorization is essential.
At Wandelbots, we're building NOVA — a platform that makes robot programming accessible to everyone. Our NOVA Cloud team is building the management & orchestration layer that extends the NOVA ecosystem into the cloud, enables multi-tenancy, and opens the platform to third-party integrations.
As a Senior Engineer on this team, you'll lead the architecture — designing service boundaries, APIs, and plugin infrastructure that define how NOVA scales. You'll own services end-to-end, bring structure to complex technical problems, and set the standard for how the team builds and operates cloud-native infrastructure.
This is a role for a senior engineer who thinks beyond features and cares deeply about how systems fit together — and who wants to grow into a staff-level impact at Wandelbots.
Drive the architecture of our cloud platform with extensibility and scalability in mind
Accelerate the NOVA platform by building NOVA Cloud - the orchestration layer for NOVA OS instances that extends the NOVA ecosystem with new capabilities
Design integration patterns and APIs that allow external services and plugins to connect reliably
Think through multi-tenancy, service boundaries, and ecosystem design from the ground up
Implement backend services and own them end-to-end, from design through production
Evolve our Kubernetes-based infrastructure
Experience in developing helm charts, GitOps
Define how services communicate, authenticate, and scale
Bring structure to complex technical problems and take others along with you
In-depth experience designing distributed, cloud-native systems, not just building features within them
Strong architectural thinking: service boundaries, API design, extensibility patterns
Experience building platforms that other systems or teams integrate against
Kubernetes in real production environments
Cloud expertise
Authentication and authorization at the platform level (OAuth2, OIDC, RBAC)
Message broker experience (NATS or similar)
Experience in TypeScript backend development
Experience designing plugin or marketplace ecosystems
Production ownership experience
Mature CI/CD thinking
EASY-TO-USE-ROBOTICS FOR EVERYONE
Imagine a world with more room to unleash our unique cognitive strengths at work. A world where all people – whether craftsmans, blue-collars worker or engineers – have access to automation technologies that perform inhuman, monotonous and high-precision tasks much more efficiently than we do.
At Wandelbots, we're fundamentally reshaping the way to work with robots. We eliminate the complexity and develop easy-to-use solutions to speed up automation and empower everyone to work with industrial robots and beyond.
MissionEnabler of Automation
We are a deep-tech company building the infrastructure for Physical AI. Artificial Intelligence is already transforming how companies plan, decide, and operate. To unlock its full potential, AI must be able to act in the physical world. This requires digital intelligence, digital twins, and robotic systems to work together seamlessly. Wandelbots connects AI, digital twins, and robots in a unified execution environment. With Wandelbots NOVA, companies can plan, simulate, validate, deploy, and optimize robotic operations across heterogeneous systems and production environments. We believe robots should no longer be isolated automation solutions. They must become part of a connected infrastructure where digital intelligence and physical execution work hand in hand. By transforming robots and automation systems into software-defined assets, organizations can deploy automation faster, scale proven processes across sites, and continuously adapt to changing business requirements. Together with our partners we are laying the foundation for a future where intelligent systems can reliably operate in the physical world.
