We are looking for a Senior Systems Engineer for a hands-on role: integrating our sensor systems on Linux edge computers, implementing LiDAR and camera signal processing, owning device connectivity and monitoring, and seeing our systems through to deployment and customer delivery.
Our Company
Invision AI is reshaping Intelligent Infrastructure and Transportation. Powered by a unique multi-camera stack that generates high-integrity 3D digital twins of dynamic environments, our technology powers disruptive, market-leading solutions in intelligent infrastructure with proven deployments across global markets. We provide real-world three-dimensional situational awareness - including 3-D detection, geo-localized tracking across sensors and sensor fusion. Our products include systems that accurately count passengers in free-flow vehicles under all weather conditions, automatic incident detection systems capable of identifying wrong-way drivers, stopped vehicles, and other traffic events in real time on roadways and railways.
The Role
This is a hands-on role spanning the full product: you'll write and optimize C++ on Linux-based devices, work with Go and Elixir services, and own networking, monitoring, hardware validation, and customer delivery.
We are looking for a tinkerer who enjoys seeing a product through, from code deployment to the customer's physical hands. This is not a narrowly focused software or IT role: you will implement and maintain features, help customers succeed, prepare hardware units for shipping, and periodically work in the field to test, deploy, and troubleshoot systems.
If you enjoy understanding how a complete product works and taking ownership across the full lifecycle of connected devices, keep reading.

- Maintain deployed systems and improve their reliability, observability, and performance
- Test hardware and software together to validate complete product behavior
- Prepare, configure, validate, and package hardware units before shipment to customers
- Support customers with technical questions, deployment needs, and issue resolution
- Participate in periodic field work for installation support, testing, deployment, and troubleshooting
- Build a deep understanding of our products and use that knowledge to improve the customer experience
- Write maintainable, well-tested code and clear technical documentation
- Participate in design reviews, code reviews, and technical planning
