Key skills for this role
Knightscope is seeking a Principal Engineer to own the end-to-end technical design and architecture of Signals — our autonomous Physical Security Information Management (PSIM) platform.
Signals is a mission-critical, enterprise-grade system that unifies our entire fleet of Autonomous Security Robots (K1 Super Tower, K5, K7), PTZ/Axis cameras, and AI detections into a single real-time operational pane of glass hosted on AWS GovCloud via Palantir FedStart.
This role is a technical lead position that bridges deep systems architecture with day-to-day engineering leadership.
You will define how multi-sensor data streams (video, audio, LiDAR, telemetry) are ingested, fused, and surfaced across role-based dashboards, real-time 3D digital twins, and AI-powered alerting workflows.
You will drive key decisions across the platform’s microservices, real-time data pipelines, security and compliance posture (FedRAMP High / DoD IL5 / CMMC), and integration with both internal tools and third-party systems such as Milestone VMS and Axis Communications.
