Position: Founding Engineer (Firmware/Systems)

Founding Engineer (Firmware/Systems)

Join a stealth, seed-stage startup building an AI-powered wearable platform for industrial field technicians. This is the systems seat closest to the hardware: real work on the wearable device itself, plus the backend and edge layers around it. Firmware experience is a genuine requirement here.

What you'll do

  • Flash, patch, and adapt vendor firmware; work in embedded Linux/RTOS or device SDKs
  • Evaluate camera/sensor hardware and define specs (FOV, battery, thermal, compute, latency) with our hardware partner
  • Build backend systems on a modern startup stack, comfortable close to the metal (C/C++/Rust)
  • Own a real-time multimodal pipeline end-to-end: capture/encoding, low-latency transport, low-latency model serving

Location & culture Fully on-site in the SF Bay Area, initial team-house period, intense/high-ownership in-person culture.
