Senior Software Engineer, Developer Experience

wheel.me is a Norwegian robotics and IoT company focused on redefining indoor mobility for modern businesses. By specializing in autonomous wheels, the company transforms existing infrastructure into self-driving robots without requiring extensive facility changes. This approach enables organizations to improve efficiency, safety, and productivity along their automation journeys. As an innovative player in robotics, wheel.me offers a dynamic environment for professionals interested in cutting-edge hardware, software, and IoT solutions. Team members collaborate across disciplines to deliver scalable, impactful automation technology to global customers. The role We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to own Developer Experience: CI/CD, build systems, automated testing, static analysis, quality gates and release automation. You will build the pipelines, internal tools and test frameworks that let us ship a quality product faster and with more confidence, on infrastructure designed to scale as the fleet grows. You work closely with the tech teams that build the product. This is a hands on role in a team that works in sprints. Success is measured in the quality of what reaches our customers: reliable releases onto robots in the field, trustworthy tests and faster builds. Experience 5+ years building and maintaining production software, with ownership of CI/CD pipelines, build systems, and test automation. Experience building CI for compiled code such as C and C++: containerized builds, caching and parallel jobs, with an understanding of compilers, toolchains and build systems such as CMake, catkin and colcon. Experience with test automation at unit, integration and system level. Experience with release and deployment automation. Experience shortening developer feedback loops: checks before merge, handling of flaky tests, and test results developers trust. Comfortable working close to hardware and collaborating across engineering teams. We value a strong systems foundation and the ability to ramp quickly over experience with any specific framework. Technical skills Working knowledge of Linux, including Docker or Kubernetes, and Infrastructure as Code such as Terraform. Experience with AWS. Experience with Azure is a plus. Working knowledge of embedded Linux builds. We use custom Yocto images and RAUC for updates. You own the pipeline infrastructure that builds and tests them. Test and quality tooling in Git pull requests: test frameworks, sharding, code coverage, linting and static analysis. Bonus: experience with testing on target hardware or hardware in the loop. What you will do Own and evolve CI/CD pipelines and build systems across the whole stack, from the robot to the cloud, designed to scale across a fleet of several robot types. Build the test frameworks and pipelines that run unit, integration, on target and hardware in the loop tests. Teams write their tests; you make them fast and reliable. Automate the build and release process across the stack. Develop tooling, quality gates, and static analysis that improve code quality without slowing developers down. Make builds reproducible and pipelines measurable: build time, failure rate and flaky tests tracked and visible to developers. Reduce build times, eliminate flaky tests, and shorten the path from commit to running on a robot. Work with developers across the tech teams to find and remove bottlenecks in how we build, test and ship. Develop the monorepo conventions, project structure and shared workflows together with the tech teams. What we are looking for You care about the quality of what reaches our customers, and you build tools that make good practice the easy path for every developer. Strong engineering judgement and a preference for reusable infrastructure that serves the whole fleet over single purpose pipelines. Methodical debugging, a high bar for correctness, and pragmatism about working within an existing stack. Strong collaboration across the engineering organisation and clear technical communication in fluent English. Our tech stack Languages: C++, C, Python, Bash, Rust Robotics & middleware: ROS 1, ROS 2, CAN bus, MQTT, gRPC Simulation & visualization: Gazebo, RViz Embedded: Rust, C on the microcontrollers OS & build: Linux, custom Yocto builds, RAUC for OTA updates Cloud & fleet: AWS, AWS IoT Greengrass, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform Build & tooling: CMake, colcon, catkin, ament, Git, Azure DevOps CI/CD, Claude Code What we offer A role where the tools you build are used by every team and on every robot we ship. An international team. A centrally located office at Skøyen, Oslo, close to public transport. Flexible working hours. Competitive salary and benefits package. Opportunities for professional growth and influence over advanced robotics development … mais
