(Senior) Software Engineer Python (m/f/d) - AGV/AMR Fleets
THE TEAM AND ITS MISSION
We are an international team developing a UWB-based Real-Time Locating System (RTLS) that powers critical industrial applications. Our solutions support production, logistics, and intralogistics processes through products such as KINEXON Fleet Manager and Forklift Guidance, enabling both autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and manually operated forklifts.
As part of our full-stack team, you will help scale existing platforms and build new KINEXON products in close collaboration with software and hardware engineers. Your work directly impacts the reliability, performance, and usability of real-time fleet management systems used in industrial environments.
OUR TECH STACK
We work with a modern, evolving tech stack and choose technologies based on specific product and performance requirements.
Backend: Our core backend services are primarily written in Python. Depending on use case and performance needs, we also use Go and TypeScript.
Frontend: We build single-page applications using Vue.js for configuration and analytics UIs. For high-performance visualizations, we leverage WebGL-based frameworks.
Infrastructure & DevOps: Our systems are deployed using containerized, Docker-based workflows in a distributed microservice environment.
Developer Enablement: We actively use AI-powered coding assistants and automated code review tools to accelerate development, prototyping, refactoring, and quality assurance.
YOUR TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
As a Full Stack Engineer, you will take ownership of developing and evolving software components used by both internal teams and external customers. Your responsibilities include:
- Designing and developing backend services, APIs, and frontend components within the KINEXON Industries ecosystem
- Building monitoring, configuration, and control services for real-time systems
- Working with microservice architectures, real-time networking, parallel processing, and distributed systems
- Improving existing components and designing new ones, enhancing their logic, performance, and scalability
- Designing, implementing, and maintaining comprehensive automated tests and integrating them into CI/CD pipelines
- Continuously improving testing strategies, test environments, and overall code quality
- Leveraging AI-assisted development tools to improve development speed, code quality, and review processes
