Delsys Inc. () is the world leader in wearable and non-contact sensor technology for high performance electromyography, biomechanics, and physiology instruments. Since our inception in 1993, we have focused on building a strong interdisciplinary engineering team to solve some of the most intractable challenges for non-invasive biosignal sensing for human performance research and education. We maintain a fully-featured design and production facility, serving a unique portfolio of hardware and software products that support clients and institutions in over 85 countries.

Together with our affiliate company Altec Inc. () we maintain an active portfolio of research programs that leverage the latest advances in computational technologies and sensor solutions to serve a wide variety of industrial, academic, and federal government needs.

We are seeking highly motivated candidates to contribute to Delsys’ research and development of next-generation, human-centric sensor technology. Software Engineers in this role will focus on building robust backend systems, embedded processing pipelines, and real-time applications for physiological monitoring, human movement tracking, VR/AR experiences, speech analysis, and neural interface technologies.

The position requires expertise in developing signal processing and computer vision pipelines, embedded systems, and scalable software architecture for time‑critical applications. Successful candidates will collaborate closely with developers, R&D engineers and scientists, gaining hands‑on experience in translating research innovations into deployable technologies.
