Senior Software Engineer

Description

The company is building an AI video security platform that doesn't just record — it understands. Founded in 2021, backed by tier-one Silicon Valley investors, and one of the fastest-growing companies in the video security space ($64M raised, 50k+ cameras deployed). Small teams, real ownership, direct impact.

The Senior Software Engineer, Edge joins a small, high-impact team building the software layer that runs on companies core device infrastructure. The system is a hybrid edge-cloud architecture spanning video, security, networking, storage, and on-device AI. Resource-constrained, performance-critical, real-time. You'll own how well the software behaves under load — CPU, memory, concurrency — on a dedicated machine where every cycle counts.

Responsibilities:

• Contribute to the core edge platform running across diverse hardware in a hybrid edge-cloud architecture
• Develop and integrate video management capabilities: streaming, recording, real-time AI processing
• Design and optimize for low-latency, high-performance workloads at the edge
• Build secure, efficient communication pipelines between edge devices and cloud systems
• Work with AI/ML engineers to deploy and optimize on-device models
• Own performance under load — profile CPU/memory, identify bottlenecks, fix them
• Participate in code reviews, debugging, and performance tuning across the stack

Requirements

Must-Have Skills:

• Go / Rust / TypeScript (20%) — core stack; strong proficiency in at least one, ideally two
• Multithreaded & concurrent programming (18%) — critical requirement; proven experience with real parallel systems
• Performance profiling & optimization (15%) — CPU/memory management under real production load on dedicated hardware
• Docker & containerization (13%) — deploying and managing containerized workloads
• Edge computing / embedded systems (13%) — experience building for resource-constrained environments
• Networking & distributed systems (12%) — solid fundamentals; building reliable comms between edge and cloud
• Real-time systems (9%) — low-latency design and delivery

Nice-to-Have Skills:

• Video streaming / pipeline development
• Storage systems & data management at the edge
• Cloud services integration (AWS S3, GCP, MQTT, Kafka)
• AI/ML model deployment on edge devices
• Security concepts (encryption, secure communication, zero trust)
