Rapyuta Robotics, an ETH Zurich spinoff headquartered in Tokyo, operates with the goal of making robots more accessible to anyone in the logistics industry. We seek individuals who believe that collaborative work leads to more effective and sustainable outcomes, and who are fearless in challenging limits, whether within themselves or in their surroundings.
You will build and lead our warehouse applications team in Chennai. The team builds the applications that run warehouse operations: inventory, orders, workflows, dashboards and integration with customers' ERP and host systems, for both our ASRS and AMR products. The applications are deliberately thin: the intelligence lives in a shared platform layer, and the apps expose it through clear workflows and open APIs.
Requirements
Responsibilities
- Warehouse applications: Own the applications that run warehouse operations, with or without robots (inventory, orders, workflows and operational visibility), end to end, from roadmap to production.
- Thin, API-first design: Make sure business logic stays in the shared platform and is exposed through open APIs that customers and partners can build on. Bring AI into the applications where it improves how warehouses are run.
- Quality first: Make quality the default, not a final gate. Practice test-driven development and automate testing across applications, APIs and integrations, so releases are safe to ship often.
- Enterprise integration: Make integration with customers' ERP and host systems repeatable, so go-lives become configuration rather than custom projects.
- Delivery: Turn the roadmap and customer deployments into plans the squads can execute, and keep releases predictable. Work across time zones with engineering, product and support in Tokyo.
- People: Lead and grow one to two squads in Chennai. Hire, coach, give timely feedback and address underperformance. Grow tech leads who can own design inside their squads.
Requirements
- A track record of owning delivery of enterprise or logistics software in production, ideally WMS, WES, TMS or ERP-integrated systems.
- Experience taking products from 10 to 100: turning an application that works for a few customers into one that is configured, not rebuilt, for many.
- Experience designing API-first, service-based systems that others build on, with strong opinions on where business logic should and should not live.
- A quality-first mindset, with hands-on practice of test-driven development and automated testing, and a record of raising the quality bar of the teams you lead.
- Experience with formal modeling of enterprise systems (domain, process and data models) and with building systems that handle data and execution at scale.
- Demonstrated leadership and potential to grow further, grounded in fit with our core values and technical credibility, including building or scaling a team.
- Exposure to real operations: go-lives, customer integrations or support escalations.
- Comfort using AI-assisted development and building AI-enabled features.
- Business-level English and experience working with distributed teams.
