⏱︎ full-time
🧙♂️ mid-level
At Glidance, we are creating the future of personal robotics.
While others dream of humanoids, we are building the future today, by harnessing cutting-edge robotics and AI to design personal robots that address actual human needs and transform their life experience.
Our flagship product, Glide, is the world’s first Intelligent Guide for individuals who are blind or have low vision, representing a new category of personal robots to enable millions of people to get out of their homes and navigate more confidently, safely, and independently.
If you’re looking for a place where groundbreaking technology meets real-world impact , and where your work defines a category rather than iterates upon it , then Glidance is where you belong. This is not just your next job: it is your chance to make a life-changing impact on millions around the world.
We don’t wait for the future. We build it.
Reports to: Glidance Chief technology Officer
Location: Seattle, WA
Position Overview
As the lead DevOps Engineer at Glidance, you will design and implement the cloud infrastructure and ML pipelines that power our intelligent robotics systems. You’ll enable rapid development, deployment, and scaling of services that integrate perception, control, and AI into real-time robotic experiences. You will collaborate closely with robotics and AI engineers to build systems that are robust, scalable, and secure.
This is a hands-on technical role for someone who thrives in a fast-moving startup environment and is passionate about building world-class infrastructure for products with direct human impact.
️ Responsibilities· Design, build, and maintain AWS-based infrastructure to support our robotics and AI workloads.
· Develop CI/CD pipelines for software and firmware across robotics, cloud, and edge systems.
· Manage containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes) for AI inference, simulation, and backend services.
· Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting for mission-critical systems in development and production.
· Collaborate with robotics and AI teams to deploy and optimize ML models in production.
· Manage secrets, authentication, and security best practices in cloud environments.
· Help automate the testing and release process across hardware-in-the-loop and cloud systems.
· Be part of a mission-driven company improving real lives through real products.
· Work with a talented, passionate, and impact-focused team at the edge of robotics and AI.

Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
