Senior Software Engineer

Senior Software Engineer - Wellbeing Platform Andromeda South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia About the Company Andromeda Robotics is a social robotics company with offices in Melbourne and San Francisco. Our first robot, Abi, is a platform designed to be a helpful aid and intuitive partner in aged care homes. We are a collaborative team solving challenging problems in AI and robotics. The Role We are creating a wellbeing insights platform. Our robots generate transcripts and perception data from resident interactions. You will be the engineering counterpart to our Senior Data Scientist, building the product layer that makes insights valuable in the real world. You will own the product serving stack from day one: how we deliver data science insights to users, and all technical decisions on product architecture and what gets shipped. You will have MLOps support from ML engineers and infrastructure support from our DevOps/CloudOps team, freeing you to focus on building valuable product. Key Responsibilities Product layer over data science: Transform models and analyses into interfaces, APIs, and integrations care managers use daily Full stack delivery: Frontend for care staff, backend services, infrastructure for security and scale. Unblock blocks of value Real world adoption: Build integrations with existing aged care systems, not isolated dashboards Customer driven development: Work directly with care homes to understand workflows and ship what matters Pragmatic architecture: Ship MVPs that can evolve without rewrites; make smart trade-offs under ambiguity Daily data science collaboration: Partner closely to shape deliverables and feed back customer needs The Reality This is 0 to 1 work. Requirements evolve. You will wear multiple hats: care home visits, API development, infrastructure decisions. Quick wins matter. You will ship pragmatically whilst understanding technical debt. You will be building the product layer largely independently, supported by exceptional technical talent across solution architecture, cloud engineering, AI/ML, and related roles. You’ll Thrive If You Measure success by customer outcomes, not technical sophistication Energise in ambiguity rather than freeze Collaborate across technical and non-technical stakeholders Ship pragmatically without painting yourself into corners Take initiative and drive work forward independently Genuinely care about improving vulnerable people's lives Requirements Ideally You Have Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science/Software Engineering or equivalent shipping experience 5+ years building customer-facing products; experience shaping 0 to 1 products with defined value Full stack competence: frontend, backend, infrastructure, databases Strong fundamentals: clean architecture, testing, security, maintainability Self-starter who works independently and makes decisions without waiting for direction Intellectually curious: problem solver who connects dots across domains Comfortable making calls: you own technical decisions and contribute to product direction Melbourne based, five days on site Bonus Points Healthcare or privacy-sensitive domains Advising on and implementing tools and technologies where coverage is lacking Productionising ML and data science outputs Benefits The salary for this position may vary depending on factors such as job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
