About Viam:

Viam (founded by former co-founder/long-time CTO of MongoDB) is an open-source robotics + AI developer platform. It is a single platform that brings software engineering maturity to robotics and automation.

Why this could be interesting to you:

• Impact: ~100 people (~70 engineers) with only a handful at Staff level → huge room for influence.
• Proven, technical founder (MongoDB): → scaling with traction and real customers.
• Tech: Backend-focused teams (Core Services, Infrastructure, Motion Planning, Platform/Server) using Golang, MongoDB, Linux, GCP.
• Timing: Early enough to shape core architecture, late enough to see meaningful usage and scale.
