The role

You will design and build systems that turn raw sensor data into structured records, condition assessments, and automated workflows. This role involves building a sensing-platform connector layer and architecting automated detection-to-case pipelines across multiple products.

What you will do

• Design and build the sensing-platform connector/adapter layer
• Architect the automated detection-to-case pipeline
• Evaluate, integrate, or build computer-vision and LiDAR-fusion models
• Design the data model and storage layer for continuously updated spatial data
• Own the technical design for a tiered sensing-ingestion model
• Partner with engineering and product leads to sequence the sensing layer's roadmap
• Write clear technical design docs for AI tooling to execute against
• Review and own AI-generated code for correctness, security, and architectural fit
• Establish testing, monitoring, and data-quality standards

Required qualifications

• 12+ years of software engineering experience
• Track record of owning complex, cross-system integrations end-to-end in a production SaaS environment
• Experience building or integrating computer-vision, LiDAR, or geospatial data-processing pipelines
• Strong data-modeling and API/connector design skills
• Ability to operate with incomplete information and ambiguous vendor integration paths
• Experience partnering across multiple product teams
• Proficient in AI-native engineering workflows
• Excellent written communication
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience

Nice to have

• Comfort with point-cloud or 3D spatial data
• Experience with geospatial systems (PostGIS, spatial indexing, coordinate reference systems)
• Track record of shipping systems where data accuracy carries real compliance or safety consequences

Benefits

• Comprehensive healthcare options for individuals and families
• Flexible vacation policy and paid company holidays
