About this role
Our team is new, growing, and evolving quickly, and we are hiring across multiple disciplines. We work at the intersection of machine learning, hardware, and software, creating technologies that reshape how people communicate and experience the world around them in everyday life.
We're looking for a DevOps Engineer to establish and grow the automation backbone of our embedded engineering team. In this role you'll build the CI/CD pipelines, build systems, and test automation that let our firmware, DSP & ML engineers ship faster and with higher confidence. This is a foundational, high-impact position: you'll shape how the team develops, tests, and releases embedded software from the ground up.
Our team develops embedded software and firmware for edge devices. As the team scales, we need dedicated DevOps expertise to move us beyond manual builds and ad-hoc testing toward a fully automated, reproducible development workflow.
You'll be the go-to person for everything related to development automation — from automating cross-compilation and firmware builds, to integrating hardware-in-the-loop testing, to setting up continuous integration that catches problems before they reach hardware. You'll work closely with embedded engineers to understand their pain points and remove friction from their daily work, and partner with the team leader to define the team's automation strategy. Because this is a new function on the team, you'll have significant ownership and influence over tooling and process decisions.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
7+ years of experience in a DevOps, build/release engineering, or automation-focused software role
Hands-on experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar) for embedded systems
Understanding of communication protocols and interfaces common in embedded systems (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, etc.) together with HW debugging tools (logic analyzer)
Experience in an embedded, firmware, or hardware-oriented development environment
Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash, or equivalent) for automation
Solid experience with Git and version control workflows
Experience with build systems and compiled languages
Good communication skills and the ability to collaborate closely with engineers to understand and solve their workflow needs
Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills
Experience with agile development methodologies
A passion for building innovative products
Preferred Qualifications
Familiarity with hardware-in-the-loop testing, test automation frameworks, or lab automation

Experience with cross-compilation toolchains and target/host build separation
Familiarity with static analysis, code coverage, and quality tooling for C/C++
Experience managing self-hosted CI runners or physical test infrastructure
Working knowledge of MacOS environments and command-line tooling
Exposure to cloud platforms
