Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Full-Stack Software Engineer to build the software ecosystem powering our next-generation AI Vision Systems. You will develop the "connective tissue" between high-performance machine learning models running on edge hardware and our Google Cloud-based analytics backend. This is a hands-on role for an engineer who is passionate about bringing AI out of the lab and into the real world.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities:

  • Edge Software Integration: Develop and optimize software to deploy machine learning models on edge devices (NVIDIA Jetson/Thor), ensuring low-latency performance for real-time vision tasks.
  • Full-Stack API Development: Build scalable RESTful APIs and microservices (Python/C\+\+) that allow edge devices to communicate seamlessly with cloud backends.
  • Data Architecture: Design and manage data pipelines using Google Cloud tools (BigQuery, Postgres) to handle real-time image/video data and model telemetry.
  • Web Interfaces: Create intuitive, high-performance web-based dashboards (React/TypeScript) for monitoring system health and visualizing AI-driven insights.
  • AI-Augmented Engineering: Heavily leverage Agentic AI tools and LLM-assisted workflows to accelerate development cycles and maintain high code quality.
  • Incremental and Iterative Delivery: Work with the team and key stakeholders to find and deliver product increments in an iterative way, taking reasonable risks, validating key hypothesis, and learning continuously
  • Cross-Functional Deployment: Collaborate with Data Scientists to containerize models (Docker/Kubernetes) and with Hardware Engineers to validate performance on the factory floor.

Qualifications

Required Qualifications:

  • Experience: 3\+ years of professional software engineering experience in a production environment.
  • Edge Development: Proven experience deploying software to edge computing hardware or IoT devices.
  • Backend Mastery: Strong proficiency in Python (required) and at least one other language (C\+\+, Go, or Node.js).
  • Cloud Fluency: Experience building on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or similar (AWS/Azure), specifically with managed database services.
  • Modern Frontend: Experience building responsive web applications with React or similar modern frameworks.
  • DevOps Basics: Familiarity using docker as the key configuration, build, and deploy mechanism, CI/CD pipelines and disciplined version control approach (GIT based)

Desired Skills:

  • Experience with OpenCV, TensorRT, or OpenVINO for vision optimization.
  • Familiarity with ML frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow.
  • Knowledge of industrial protocols (MQTT, WebSockets) for real-time data streaming.
  • A passion for "Agentic" workflows and continuous improvement.
