Lead Embedded System Software Engineer

Lead Embedded Systems Software Engineer

Dapster is looking for a Lead Embedded Systems Software Engineer to join our small-but-powerful team. This is an impact opportunity we're very much still an early-stage startup, and you will be working on our foundational technology and products.

About Dapster : Dapster is focused on bringing AI-fueled robotic picking solutions to market. We recently landed a large pilot with a top retailer effectively dilution-free funding to develop our core technology.

The quick details :

What will you do? Broad ownership of the inner workings of the entire Dapster robotic system (we can go into much more detail live).

What are we looking for?

• Excellent C / C++ and Python programming skills in a Linux environment.
• Experience writing / maintaining driver-level code for different types of sensors, actuators and communication interfaces like WiFi / BlueTooth, and handling the early signal processing for these devices.
• Ability to quickly get up to speed with an unfamiliar device by reading its specification, register map, driver api, and integrate it into the product.
• Excellent communication skills
• Ability to quickly put together a circuit to electrically interface different devices.
• A strong academic and work record (e.g. BS CS / EE with 5+ years of experience or MS CS / EE with 3+ years of experience) or commensurate work experience

Other nice-to-have's :

Dapster is a remote-friendly, hybrid workplace. We maintain a development lab in Palo Alto, CA, and occasionally travel to client sites (mainly Phoenix, AZ). Roles requiring interaction with our physical robots likely entail more in-office work than not. Other roles can be structured to your preferences.
