Embedded Software Engineer (ML/AI Compilation & Inference)

We’re looking for an Embedded Software Engineer to develop and optimize real-time machine learning software for resource-constrained devices. 



You’ll work across embedded systems, machine learning, and signal processing, taking algorithms from prototype to efficient production code deployed on smartphones, laptops, wearables, and other embedded platforms. 

• Real-time machine learning inference on DSPs, MCUs, NPUs, and other embedded accelerators 
• High-performance software in C and Rust 
• Optimization for latency, memory usage, compute, and power 
• Real-time audio, sensor, and signal-processing pipelines 
• Profiling, debugging, testing, and benchmarking 
• Integration across Android, Windows, Linux, SoCs, DSPs, and embedded platforms 
• Internal SDKs, tooling, automation, and test infrastructure 

• Strong programming experience in C, Rust, and/or C++ 
• Experience with embedded or real-time software development 
• Understanding of software architecture and maintainable systems 
• Experience with machine learning inference, edge AI, signal processing, or numerical computing 
• Experience with SoCs, DSPs, NPUs, microcontrollers, or hardware accelerators 
• Familiarity with performance optimization, quantization, SIMD, or fixed-point arithmetic 
• Experience with common development tools and workflows, including CMake, Cargo, GCC/Clang, Git, WSL, Docker, or similar 
• Hands-on experience with machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar, including model development and deployment workflows 
• Clear written and spoken communication skills in English 
• 

Experience with LLMs, coding agents, and modern AI-assisted development workflows is a plus. We value engineers who use these tools to work efficiently while maintaining engineering quality, questioning generated solutions, removing unnecessary complexity, and favoring clear, minimal designs when a simpler solution will do.
