Founding Wearables Engineer

We’re building AI that learns from the factory environment and turns that knowledge into better decisions on the floor. The point is simple: better decisions and better execution while the work is happening.

Our Palo Alto-based team brings experience from Stanford, BCG, Porter, and Mercedes-Benz. Our founders have built a unicorn and raised hundreds of millions from firms like Sequoia and Tiger Global. This is a chance to join a well‑funded early‑stage company already working with active design partners and a long waitlist of manufacturers eager to work with us.

We are looking for a founding wearables engineer to lead our camera‑first wearable capture effort: smart glasses, head‑mounted cameras, body‑worn devices, rugged mobile hardware, or whatever gets the job done.

This is a hands‑on senior IC role for someone who can move fast, evaluate existing hardware, customize where needed, and get working systems into the field. AR is not the priority right now. Reliable procedure capture and hands‑free troubleshooting are.

• Own Myto’s wearable hardware strategy from prototype to field deployment.
• Evaluate smart glasses, wearable cameras, microphones, mounts, rugged devices, and OEM hardware platforms.
• Build fast prototypes using off‑the‑shelf hardware, SDKs, dev kits, custom mounts, batteries, and enclosures.
• Integrate wearable hardware with Myto’s software workflows for procedure capture and troubleshooting.
• Test devices in real environments for video quality, audio quality, comfort, durability, battery life, connectivity, and technician usability.
• Work with vendors, OEMs, contractors, and internal software/product teams.
• Make practical buy vs. customize vs. build decisions.
• Help define and potentially build the future wearables/hardware function at Myto.

• Senior hands‑on engineer with experience building, customizing, integrating, or shipping hardware‑based products.
• Experience with wearables, cameras, smart glasses, rugged hardware, robotics, field‑service tools, consumer electronics, medical devices, defense hardware, or similar systems.
• Strong practical judgment and bias toward getting working hardware into users’ hands quickly.
• Familiarity with cameras, microphones, Android/Linux devices, connectivity, batteries, thermals, mounts, sensors, SDKs, or device management.
• Comfortable working across hardware, software, vendors, and field testing.
• Scrappy, fast‑moving, and able to operate with incomplete requirements.

• Experience with camera‑first smart glasses or wearable capture devices.
• Experience in manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, industrial maintenance, robotics, construction, or field service.
• Experience with video streaming, remote assist, computer vision, or AI‑assisted troubleshooting.

Full‑time. Local or hybrid preferred for hardware iteration and field testing, but we care more about finding the right person quickly than enforcing a strict location requirement.
