About the role
- We collect radio data from all over the world, train neural networks to decipher it, and run them on the smallest chips we can.
- You'll fit in if you want to come to work for the problem itself and don't want to choose between technical rigor, business value, and real-world impact.
- We work with high ownership and trust, and we do it together in the office 5 days/week.
Responsibilities
- Contribute to overall system architecture and design decisions
- Design, develop, test, and deploy performant and robust software on embedded and edge compute platforms
- Develop interfaces to off-the-shelf and custom hardware
- 5-10 years experience developing software for embedded Linux (kernel space and user space) or real time operating systems.
- DS creates systems that power the next generation of radio spectrum intelligence.
- We're solving a new, technically hard problem where nothing from other fields works out of the box, and along the way, we've built our own stack from scratch, including entirely new embedding model architectures, custom GPU kernels, and much more.
Requirements
- Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field or similar relevant experience
