You will build foundational low-latency infrastructure at the intersection of video streaming and robotics. Working directly with the founders, you will own critical systems like custom video protocols and distributed mesh networks. Your work ensures sub-40ms latency, enabling operators to remotely control robots anywhere in the world while generating structured datasets for AI training.
Software Engineer at Adamo
Adamo is building the data layer for robotics, and they need a Software Engineer to own their low-latency infrastructure. You'll work on a custom video protocol delivering sub-40ms glass-to-glass latency—not WebRTC—to enable real-time teleoperation of humanoid robots and AVs. Joining a venture-backed team of three in London, you'll ship foundational code in Rust that bridges the gap between human operators and autonomous systems. If you care about milliseconds and want to build the operational backbone for the future of robotics, this is your role.

Role overview
Adamo provides managed teleoperation, low-latency solutions and data collection for the fastest growing robotics companies. The company builds end-to-end solutions so that robotics companies can focus on hardware and model development, while Adamo makes deployment seamless by providing managed remote teleoperation services with access to trained teleoperation specialists and low-latency infrastructure.
What you will do
- Develop and optimize a custom low-latency video streaming protocol and Kafka-like streaming library using Rust to ensure reliable data transmission across global networks.
- Implement multi-path bonding and distributed mesh networking across LTE, 5G, and Wi-Fi to maintain high-fidelity connections between robots and remote operators.
- Integrate the teleoperation stack with diverse robotic fleets, including humanoids and autonomous vehicles, using middleware like ROS2, Zenoh, or DDS.
Who this is a fit for
- Possesses deep experience in low-latency video streaming, real-time networking infrastructure, or building custom communication protocols for high-performance systems.
- Demonstrates proficiency in Rust or a strong background in C/C++ with a commitment to mastering Rust for systems-level development and performance optimization.
- Has a background in robotics middleware (ROS2, Zenoh), IoT fleet management, or cloud gaming infrastructure where every millisecond of latency is critical.
Why this role is remarkable
- Join a venture-backed, execution-focused team of three as an early hire, directly influencing the technical architecture of a platform serving the fastest-growing robotics companies.
- Solve deep systems challenges by building custom protocols and renderers from scratch, moving beyond standard solutions like WebRTC to achieve sub-40ms glass-to-glass latency.
- Work at the cutting edge of robotics and data, building the infrastructure that allows humanoid robots and autonomous vehicles to handle complex real-world edge cases.
