Responsibilities
- Architect and implement store-and-forward transport and data-synchronization protocols for low-bandwidth, high-latency, and DDIL conditions.
- Implement peer discovery and asynchronous I/O transports over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth/BLE, and ad-hoc mesh networks.
- Apply delay-tolerant networking, CRDTs, and content-addressable storage to support indefinite offline operation and conflict resolution.
- Develop software spanning edge devices, mobile environments, and upstream cloud synchronization services.
- Lead performance tuning, memory management, and debugging for resource-constrained hardware in rugged field deployments.
- Implement authorization and authentication security patterns for DDIL and contested environments.
- Collaborate with hardware, mobile, and backend teams to validate functionality under simulated and live field constraints.
Requirements
- 5–7+ years of software engineering experience building robust systems software or distributed networking services.
- Strong proficiency in Rust or another systems-level language such as Go, C, or C++.
- Demonstrated experience with store-and-forward architectures, delay-tolerant networks, asynchronous I/O, or local device-to-device transport layers.
- Practical experience solving synchronization problems under intermittent, contested, or low-throughput network conditions.
- Preferred experience with Android development, including NDK, Kotlin, KMP, CMP, background synchronization services, or Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Direct stacks.
- Preferred familiarity with hybrid mobile/cloud architectures and state reconciliation.
- Preferred hands-on experience testing wireless networking hardware and software in physical field or operational environments.
- Preferred background in content-addressable data structures, Merkle DAGs, or CRDTs.
- Preferred expertise in embedded hardware or robotics orchestration.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and performance-based incentives.
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits, including a high-deductible HSA option with a $200/month company contribution.
- 401(k) match for U.S.-based employees.
- Equity options.
- Flexible PTO policy.
- Parental leave for eligible employees.
- Continuing education support.
- Company-paid basic life insurance, supplemental life insurance, and short- and long-term disability coverage.
- Free parking for in-office employees.
- Benefits generally apply to U.S.-based employees and may vary for employees hired outside the United States based on local law and employment entity.
