Description:
We’re quietly assembling a founding team to lay the foundations of something big — a spatially-aware device that blends perception, and control into one seamless experience.
What You’ll Own
As the Founding Tech Lead, you’ll:
- Architect and build the full system: vision → perception → control
- Lead development from the first prototypes
- Own decisions around platforms, CV pipelines, real-time control, and system scaling
- Lead the hardware and software pieces of the platform
- Debug complex problems across layers — from sensors to software
- Mentor and grow the early engineering team
- You’ll define the product from zero to one.
- This is NOT a role for passive contributors.
- This is for hands-on builders who want to be in the room where it happens — and actually ship it.
What We’re Looking For
You're a hands-on technical generalist with deep expertise in three or more of these areas:
- Embedded Systems (Jetson Nano, Raspberry Pi, STM32, and similar)
- Home automation platform experience (OpenHAB, Home Assistant and similar)
- Deep understanding of communication protocols (MQTT, CoAP, HTTP and similar)
- Linux Platform engineering (Linux, MQTT, and similar)
- Computer Vision (MediaPipe, OpenCV, TensorRT, and similar)
- Motion Control / Actuation (servo/stepper drivers, PID loops, and similar)
- Edge Systems that require low-latency inference or control
- Full-stack prototyping (Python, Node, C/C++)
- Hands-on Git (branching, PRs/MRs, code reviews)
- Practical Agile experience (sprint planning, standups, retros)
