What the job involves

- Lead the implementation of extensions to the Signaloid Cloud Compute Engine backend
- Be responsible for extending the testing and QA infrastructure of the Signaloid Cloud Compute Engine backend
- Be responsible for taking the initiative to identify whether the quality level of your implementation meets both explicit and implicit design and quality objectives of the team

- Design, implement, and document improvements to the Signaloid Cloud Compute Engine API
- Contribute to improving operational procedures in the engineering team
- After a year in this role, you can expect to:
- Contribute to and lead the definition of the direction of the evolution of key parts of the Signaloid Cloud platform, either as an individual contributor or as a team lead
- Gain increased autonomy and responsibility for strategy within the engineering team
- Have the opportunity, based on your demonstrated performance, to take on new challenges within Signaloid
Application process
- All positions require you to write a brief cover letter that should be no more than one page long. The more concise the better
- Applicants who pass the cover letter screening receive an initial 15-minute Zoom screening call with the CEO/CTO
- Applicants who pass the screening interview will be given a coding project that can be solved using the Free Tier of Signaloid's Signaloid Cloud Developer Platform
- Applicants who successfully complete the coding exercise are invited for a set of interviews with people from our core teams (there will be up to six interviewers). The interviewers will use the project you completed as a discussion point
- In the final stage, applicants are invited for an on-site (or "virtual on-site") day with members of the team you are interviewing to join
- During this day, we will work with you on a hands-on simulation of a real working day solving a task relevant to the position you are applying for, working with your potential future colleagues
Our take
Autonomous system development is a rapidly growing market that is set to touch every aspect of life, however, the quality of data that powers autonomous systems (such as sensors and cameras) can be uncertain.
Signaloid’s computer hardware accelerator tracks uncertainty in data in real time and provides actionable insights as to how data quality degrades. The company’s cloud-based platform has engaged with customers across a wide range of markets and has partnered with Bosch Rexroth, bringing its hardware modules and cloud platform to the Rexroth ctrlX industrial automation platform.
The company is focused on further development, investigating possible target applications for its accelerator across the entire field of autonomous systems. SIgnaloid’s innovative system is well-positioned to lead the essential success of autonomous and AI systems around the world.
