Head of Software Architecture, Embodied AI Platform

We are looking for a Head of Software Architecture with 8+ years of experience to own the end-to-end architecture of Dexmate's agentic SaaS platform that manages and operates general-purpose robots at fleet scale. You should be a staff or principal-level engineer who has deep experience in system design, distributed architectures, and connected-device/IoT platforms — think Tesla, Google Home, or similar hardware-software ecosystems. This is a hands-on leadership role reporting directly to the CTO, where you'll build the foundational architecture while growing a team from ~10 to 15+ engineers. You must embrace AI and bring a modern mindset to integrating agentic capabilities into the platform.

What will you be doing?

- Design and own the full platform architecture — robot connectivity, fleet management, AI/agentic features, data pipelines, and model training workflows — as one coherent system

- Set the technical direction across frontend, backend, robot-side, and infrastructure, making key architectural decisions as the team scales

- Stay hands-on writing and reviewing code, especially in early architecture phases where foundational abstractions are critical

- Architect how AI agent capabilities (chatbots, agentic behaviors, learning from fleet data) integrate safely into the platform with proper guardrails for physical robots

- Grow and lead the software platform team from ~10 people today to 15+ engineers, establishing engineering standards and architecture review processes
