Systems Engineer (Embedded Linux)

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!

Experience with working on C, or C++ microcontroller firmware is a big plus

Comfort with a fast-paced, startup atmosphere you don't shy away from the hard work
