What are the responsibilities and job description for the Software Engineer, Data Engine position at Parametric (YC F25)?
About Us
Parametric is building robots to reliably automate physical labor in the real world. We’ve spent the last few months aggressively building our technology and fundraising and are now excited to begin rapidly growing the company.
About The Role
As a Data Engine Software Engineer, you'll own the systems that generate high-quality training data for our robots. You'll build tools to collect, process, and manage large datasets, working across hardware, software, and people to make data collection reliable and scalable. Your work will directly determine the quality of data our models train on, which means it will directly determine how well our robots perform in the real world.
This is a full-time in-person role in our San Francisco office.
What You’ll Do
We firmly believe the best version of the future includes everyone, so we encourage you to apply even if you don’t strictly meet all the requirements.
