Software Engineer, Core Technology

The Role

As a Software Engineer at Nex, you will contribute to building the technical foundations that power our platform's most demanding capabilities. You will focus on either ML Engineering or Framework Engineering, two complementary specializations that drive research velocity and product performance.

In the ML Engineering track, you will build the infrastructure that accelerates machine learning research: training pipelines, data workflows, model integration systems, and the tools that enable rapid experimentation. Your work ensures researchers can iterate reliably and move experiments toward production readiness.

In the Framework Engineering track, you will own the design and development of our cross-platform software framework for detection, sensing, haptics, and ML inference. You will build the real-time systems, hardware abstraction layers, and developer APIs that enable multimodal interaction on Nex Playground.

Either path offers the opportunity to work on deeply technical problems in machine learning systems, data infrastructure, sensing technologies, and real-time inference. You will be part of a small, highly technical team that values both specialization and collaboration, with clear ownership of core technology areas.

The Mindset

You are drawn to solving complex technical challenges at the intersection of research and production engineering. You care deeply about building systems that are reliable, performant, and maintainable. You thrive in environments where technical depth matters, where your expertise in ML systems, distributed computing, or real-time software directly shapes what the platform can do.

What You’ll Do

ML Engineering Track

• Design and build training pipelines, data workflows, and model integration systems
• Develop infrastructure that accelerates research iteration and reduces turnaround time
• Build systems for data collection, curation, and preprocessing at scale
• Create tools and frameworks that bridge research and production environments
