How we know

It hasn't been reposted, listed twice, or left up unusually long, and the posting doesn't say it's a talent pool.

Ghostless records the day it first sees a posting, so a repost can't reset its age. This one was already up when Ghostless started tracking Watney, so its true age is longer.

Last checked Nov 4, 2026.

What the posting discloses

Not stated: Pay, real vacancy, AI screening.

Why these three

Ontario requires postings from employers with 25 or more staff to state the pay, whether the vacancy exists, and whether AI screens applicants.

Some employers add pay only on their own site. Check the original posting before you rule it out.

About the role

Our Mission

Expand human ambition in the physical world.

Critical infrastructure is constrained by labor shortages, hazardous working conditions, and operational complexity. Watney builds and deploys autonomous robotic systems that increase the speed and capacity of buildout, starting with data centers.

About the Role

At Watney, infrastructure engineers keep a fleet of robots in the field connected and safe to change. The robots do production work at customer sites and stream real-time video from their cameras. The same infrastructure carries that video and data to our ML team and the rest of engineering.

Changing software on robots that are doing real work, over customer networks we do not control, is a problem the field has not settled: how a change reaches the fleet safely, and how video and data keep moving when a network fails.

Our software engineers run this infrastructure today alongside the robot software. You will partner with them, own it full time, and decide what a safe release looks like. Every robot in the field depends on that answer. At Staff, you lead the infrastructure changes that cross teams.

What You’ll Do

  • Own networking, remote access, and the real-time video pipelines for the fleet.
  • Own CI, observability, and alerting for the fleet and the services behind it.
  • Build the release gate and rollout process for the fleet, and own the bar a change must clear.
  • Decide where data lives, how it is kept, and what our infrastructure costs to run.
  • Lead infrastructure changes with the software engineers who run this infrastructure today, and across the ML and fleet operations teams who depend on it.

You May Be a Good Fit If You

  • Have led an infrastructure change across several teams, or founded the team that owns one.
  • Have owned production networking or edge traffic for a large system.
  • Have migrated a large system in stages, through breaking changes, without breaking its users.
  • Have owned observability and alerting for a production system.
  • Have built tooling that other engineers rely on every day.

We’re committed to building a diverse, inclusive team. At Watney Robotics, we welcome people of all backgrounds and identities, and we make hiring decisions based on skills, experience, and potential. If you’re passionate about robotics but don’t meet every requirement, we still encourage you to apply!
