This role is for someone who enjoys working close to hardware, real devices, unreliable networks, logs, diagnostics, edge compute, and field conditions.

For candidates who can start immediately, there may be an opportunity to join the founding team in San Francisco, stay with the team, and build together from a prestigious San Francisco accelerator environment. This is subject to availability, travel and visa requirements, role fit, and mutual agreement.

Responsibilities:

• Build edge software for connected machines and automated retail or industrial environments.

• Integrate edge devices with sensors, screens, peripherals, connectivity modules, and backend systems.

• Implement local state management, diagnostics, logging, and fallback behavior.

• Support reliable device-to-cloud communication.

• Work with backend, AI, product, and field teams to connect real machines to the platform.

• Help select edge hardware, operating systems, device-management patterns, and deployment tooling.

• Support prototypes, demos, and early field pilots.

• Debug real devices in real operating conditions.

Requirements:

• Experience with embedded, edge, industrial IoT, robotics, kiosk, POS, vending, or hardware-connected systems.

• Strong programming ability in C, C++, Rust, Go, Python, or similar.

• Experience with OTA updates, secure provisioning, device management, or fleet monitoring.

• Experience with embedded Linux, industrial PCs, Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson, microcontrollers, or similar platforms.

• Experience with local AI inference, cameras, audio, or sensor processing.

Success in the first 90 days:

• You help bring the first edge prototype to a stable working state.

• You connect real devices to the backend.

• You implement basic telemetry, diagnostics, and local fallback behavior.

• You help define the device-side engineering playbook.

Success in the first 6-12 months:

• The company has a reliable edge software layer running in pilot environments.
