Key skills for this role
We’re building a planet scale, sensor to decision weather capability—modern sensing hardware, AI native forecasting, and decision intelligence—so organizations can act on weather with confidence. Your work will help stand up autonomous, distributed sensing hardware and the data pathways that feed our forecasting and decision tools.
Own the development of a distributed mesh network of weather sensors that can (1) measure and log environmental data, (2) perform onboard compute at the edge, (3) effect motion (motors/actuators), and (4) transmit data reliably over RF line of sight and satellite links . Initially you’ll take the first platform from concept through build, test, and production ramp , then extend the approach to additional platforms and vehicle form factors.
Select and integrate off the shelf sensors (meteorological sensors, GPS/IMU), microcontrollers, and comms modules; define interfaces and power budgets.
Define and implement robust power systems
Architect resilient mesh networking for remote, intermittently connected nodes (routing, store and forward, edge buffering).
Own bring up and validation of boards (COTS and potentially in-house PCB work); design low noise analog front ends and sensor conditioning.
