About Us
Nidus is building autonomous manufacturing systems powered by AI and robotics. U.S. manufacturers are under growing pressure to increase output while navigating workforce constraints, underutilized equipment, and increasingly complex supply chains. We believe the next generation of manufacturing will be enabled by more intelligent, flexible automation—systems that help people and machines work together to expand capacity and improve productivity.
We’re building the intelligence layer that makes that possible.
Our team comes from the intersection of defense technology and AI. We’ve built and shipped products to DoD customers, and we bring deep experience across ML, robotics, product development, and defense.
We’re a small, in-person team in New York City working on hard problems that matter. If you want to build the future of American manufacturing, we’d love to hear from you.
Role Overview
We are seeking a Staff ML Backend Engineer to join our team and build the foundational infrastructure that powers our machine learning pipelines for advanced robotics systems. This role will focus on creating robust, scalable backend systems that enable our ML and robotics teams to train, deploy, and monitor models in production manufacturing environments. You’ll be working at the intersection of distributed systems, ML infrastructure, and robotics sensor data collection
Key Responsibilities
•
Owning the data collection/storage pipeline for our robotics sensor data
•
Making technical decisions around efficient storage and processing of that sensor data
•

Preferred Qualifications
•
Experience with robotics systems, real-time data processing, or edge computing environments
•
Familiarity with ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow) and model serving platforms (TorchServe, TensorFlow Serving, NVIDIA Triton)
•
Background in manufacturing systems, industrial automation, or hardware-software integration
•
Experience with high-frequency data streaming and time-series databases
