Who We Are:

Dusty Robotics is the leading solution to ensure design integrity in the field through automated layout and a streamlined BIM-to-field process. Dusty delivers a combination of hardware, software, and services that fit seamlessly into existing construction work processes by printing digital models directly on the jobsite floor with 1/16" accuracy based directly on Revit or AutoCAD models. Dusty has enabled contractors to print over 100 million square feet of layout across thousands of buildings and is trusted by leading general contractors such as DPR and Skanska as well as trade contractors in framing, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing.

Who You Are:

We are seeking a lead engineer for the team that will continue to build the iPad interface that construction crews use to operate the FieldPrinter. This is a sophisticated full-size tablet app that configures the layout, commands the robot, and visualizes the layout process on a canvas.

What You'll Do:

You'll leverage your extensive experience in mobile development to design a flexible application architecture that supports our long-term feature roadmap. You'll collaborate with engineers, product management and QA to ensure quality delivery of successive software releases. You'll also work with other engineering leads to integrate the mobile interface with our cloud applications and the robot’s onboard software. You’ll be a mentor and a source of wisdom within the company around mobile development.

Prior experience with robotics or construction is not required.

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of experience developing advanced iOS applications with large and engaged user bases.
  • Expert-level proficiency in iOS development, including Swift programming and mobile graphics optimization.
  • Strong skills in algorithm design, object-oriented programming, and functional programming principles.
  • Proficient in platform-centric thinking, designing scalable software architectures, robust interfaces, and tools that empower teams to build efficiently.
  • Delivers high-quality, maintainable code that is well-written and rigorously tested using modern UI and unit testing practices.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to simplify and articulate complex technical concepts effectively.
  • Driven by a growth mindset, constantly exploring new tools, technologies, and techniques to enhance software development processes.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Our Engineering Team:

We are a culture of do-ers who respect each others’ strengths, and work together to accomplish the impossible. We value open-mindedness, technical depth, passion for what we’re building, an itch to build something with your own two hands. We celebrate people who create their own narratives rather than living someone else’s.

Our engineering teams are guided by experienced leads who value clean design, elegant architecture and modern technologies. We are committed to quality and reliability. Our QA team supports our software efforts with rigorous testing. We all frequently visit construction sites to evaluate our product in operation.

We also provide mentorship in all areas of engineering to help you do your best work. In addition to day-to-day involvement with other experienced engineers, we host regular discussions on engineering topics. We reimburse fees for attending technology conferences. And we offer support in accessing whatever learning resources you find helpful.

A high-growth startup will accelerate the rate at which you gain experience compared with anywhere else. Dusty is very much in this phase of growth. Working here will provide you with a wealth of challenges and experiences that you'll carry forward long into your career.

Why You Should Join:

In joining our team, you’ll become an important part of a small and fast-growing company. We are daring to accomplish something big, do you want to be a critical part of Dusty's success? We are deeply committed to our mission, and we believe in removing roadblocks that distract us from reaching our goals.

To that end, we offer an unlimited vacation policy, a 401k with employer match, reasonable work hours, and flexible schedules. We know that our best work happens when we feel well-rested and capable of focusing all of our energy on making Dusty successful!

Strong, effective teams are composed of people with a diverse set of backgrounds and experiences who bring a variety of perspectives to their work. We actively encourage applications from a diverse pool, including those from historically under-represented groups such as women, people of color, people who identify LGBTQ, people with disabilities, and immigrants.

Our Code of Conduct:

Dusty Robotics exists to serve a wide variety of customers from all walks of life. We believe that our mission is best served in an environment that is friendly, safe, accepting, and free of intimidation or harassment. We do not tolerate abusive behavior.
