Job Description
We are partnering with a defense tech company building next-generation products and we are looking for a versatile Edge Hardware / Firmware Engineer to own the mixed-signal boards and compute path for our imaging and sensor system.
You will design, bring up, and optimize GPU SoM-based hardware and firmware that ingests high-speed sensor data and runs low-latency inference in a demanding environment. This is a hands-on role spanning schematic to flight hardware in a small, AI-native team that moves fast.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and bring up mixed-signal boards centered on GPU SoMs (NVIDIA Jetson/Orin or equivalent) high-speed image sensor interfaces, low-noise analog, power architecture, and system IO
- Implement end-to-end high-speed sensor interfaces (MIPI CSI-2, LVDS, SerDes, etc.) with zero-copy DMA into GPU memory
- Develop CUDA/TensorRT pipelines and low-latency firmware/drivers (Rust & Python preferred)
- Execute schematic capture, PCB layout, bench bring-up, debug, and qualification
- Optimize power delivery, signal integrity, and timing for low-jitter, real-time performance
- Bake in DFM/DFT and manufacturability from day one
