Job Requirements / Description
About us:
We're a Series A company building intelligent, endearing robots for consumer use at home. The home autonomy space has been dramatically overlooked when it comes to robotics. While the last decade has seen an influx of companies promising self-driving cars and intelligent humanoids, none are delivering these solutions reliably or affordably. Meanwhile, regular people are still stuck spending dozens of hours per week on repetitive household chores.
At Matic, we're leveraging advanced technology to address this problem. We've started by reimagining what autonomous floor cleaning robots can achieve using AI and computer vision with our flagship product. From there, our goal is to continue automating other forms of household labor, shipping realistic, affordable, and privacy-first robots to our users while building iteratively toward more complex tasks and capabilities over time.
About the role:
Matic is hiring a motivated Embedded Linux Engineer to join us (pre-launch) on the ground floor, with runway for huge and immediate impact.
In this role, you'd be joining our Platform team, which works on a diverse set of problems, ranging from low-level driver and kernel development all the way up to interfacing with the complex perception algorithms running locally on the robot, with high performance expectations and very limited computes.
We're looking for someone with strong embedded Linux and C/C++ skills who's also eager to learn Rust. If you're driven by high levels of ownership and solving complex problems, we'd love to chat! You can check out our blog here:
What you'll do
If you got to this point, we hope you're feeling excited about this opportunity at Matic! Even if you don't feel that you meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply. We're eager to meet people who are keen to learn and are passionate about what Matic is building. We want to hear how you can contribute to our team in a variety of ways - not just the above boxes.
