About this job
About the Team
Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that automate repetitive manual work in real environments. We design and manufacture our hardware in-house, which means iteration, fabrication, and execution all happen under one roof.
Our robots need software interfaces that are clear, efficient, and practical for real use. Our product and software efforts span teleoperation, internal tools, customer demos, and company-facing materials — front-end engineering plays a central role across all of it.
About the Role
As a Front-End Engineer (WebXR / VR) at Droyd, you will build the immersive and web-based interfaces our operators and customers use to control and monitor robots. You will own front-end systems for teleoperation, including WebXR / VR experiences that let operators see through and command our robots in real time.
You will work closely with designers and robotics engineers to turn rough ideas into production-grade interfaces.
This role is based on-site in San Francisco, CA.
In This Role, You’ll
Front-End & WebXR / VR Development
Build and own web and WebXR / VR interfaces for teleoperation and operator workflows
Develop real-time, low-latency UIs that stream robot data and video
Improve usability and performance across internal and external product surfaces
Design-to-Production
Work closely with designers to bring concepts into production
Iterate quickly based on operator and team feedback
Collaboration
Partner with robotics and backend engineers to integrate front-end systems with the control stack
Help maintain a consistent, high-quality interface across products
Work Environment & Schedule
On-site in San Francisco, CA
Full-time
We’re Looking For Candidates Who
Have strong front-end engineering skills (JavaScript / TypeScript, modern frameworks)
Have experience building WebXR, VR, WebGL, or other real-time / 3D web interfaces
Have experience designing practical, user-centered workflows
Can collaborate closely with designers and engineers in a fast-paced environment
Nice to Have
Experience with VR or teleoperation interfaces
Experience in robotics, industrial, or highly technical products
Familiarity with real-time video / data streaming (WebRTC)
About Droyd
Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that operate in real production environments. We design the hardware, develop the control stack, and generate the data that enables generalist robotics.
If we do this right, robots stop being demos and start being infrastructure.
Join us and help build the systems that make it real.
