Senior Software Engineer

The role

You will help build the Perch camera system by working across platform, perception, and ML systems. You will design algorithms for 3D object tracking, train ML models, and build reliable application features and services.

What you will do

• Design and implement algorithms for 3D object tracking, segmentation, and motion recognition on embedded hardware.
• Train and iterate on ML models from dataset curation through training, evaluation, and deployment to edge devices.
• Help bring ML, computer vision, or signal-processing systems into production with tight performance constraints.
• Build reliable application features and services that customers use in real environments.
• Analyze production data to find system limits, product issues, and opportunities for improvement.
• Collaborate with the embedded platform team on model optimization and inference performance.
• Collaborate with the applications team on how tracking data becomes product features.

Required qualifications

• 4+ years of software engineering experience in production systems.
• Strong skill in Python and backend engineering.
• Working knowledge of C++ or a strong reason to be effective in performance-critical code.
• Experience with data-intensive systems, distributed systems, parallel processing, or efficient data pipelines.
• Exposure to ML, ML infrastructure, signal processing, real-time systems, computer vision, or related applied technical areas.
• A track record of shipping reliable software, not only prototypes.
• Strong debugging skills and the ability to find the root cause of complex system behavior.
• Clear communication and good judgment when tradeoffs are not simple.
• Curiosity, adaptability, and the desire to learn new technical areas.

Nice to have

• Experience with computer vision, depth cameras, pose estimation, tracking, or 3D data.
• Experience with ML model deployment, feature pipelines, evaluation systems, or data quality tools.
• Experience with streaming data, event systems, real-time processing, or low-latency applications.
• Experience with numerical methods, signal processing, filtering, state estimation, or robotics.
