ABOUT THE ROLE

As an Embedded Vision Developer, you will join a tight-knit engineering team building the next generation Planix capture system. You will take ownership of the core imaging and LiDAR pipeline that drives image capture, point cloud capture, real time processing, and data handoff. You'll work closely with system engineering, product design, mobile app team, and external vendors to design and deliver new and improved data capture capabilities for the Planix product family.

RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Own the design/implementation of embedded FW on next gen Planix capture system. Contribute to the architecture of our system, following and evolving best practices. Lead major feature delivery: scope, timelines, risks, and integration across hardware/firmware/mobile.
  • Support releases: versioning, compatibility, and post-release monitoring.
  • Maintain device-to-app interfaces (protocols/SDK layers) and partner with mobile engineers to troubleshoot cross-boundary issues.
  • Integrating camera + LiDAR with embedded SoC.


QUALIFICATIONS

Technical
  • 5+ years building and shipping modern C++ (C++17+) for embedded Linux.
  • Experience working on embedded camera systems and HW ISP.
  • Strong fundamentals: memory management, multithreading/concurrency, real-time constraints, HW/SW interfaces.
  • Ability to bridge native C++ to mobile (Objective-C++ wrappers, JNI).
  • Build/test/debug tooling: CMake, cross-compilation, CI/CD, unit/integration tests, gdb/system logs.
  • Bonus: sensor fusion (LIDAR/IMU/GPS), motor control, NVIDIA Jetson platform.


AI-Enabled Development
  • Proficient with AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) for development, debugging, and code review.
  • Experience orchestrating AI agents to automate multi-step engineering workflows, with sound judgment on when to verify or override output.
  • Comfortable integrating AI tooling (prompts, skills, MCP servers) with internal build, CI, and device-debug systems.

Collaboration & Communication
  • Experience collaborating effectively with team members and other stakeholders to develop concepts from ideation, to launch, to subsequent iteration.
  • Ability to effectively convey complex technical concepts, especially those that span embedded and mobile domains to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, dynamic startup environment where hardware and software evolve together.

Our Tech Stack
  • Languages: C++17/C
  • Platform: Embedded Linux on NVIDIA Jetson
  • Mobile: iOS/Android integrations
  • Build: CMake, BitBake, Gradle, Xcode
  • Connectivity: Wi-Fi, USB, PTP


PERKS AND BENEFITS:
  • 100% employer-paid flexible benefits plan
