Teleo is a robotics startup disrupting a trillion-dollar industry. Teleo converts construction heavy equipment, like loaders, dozers, excavators, trucks, etc. into semi-autonomous robots. This lets one operator control multiple machines in parallel unlocking significant returns for the customer while materially enhancing the safety and comfort of the operator.

Teleo is founded by Vinay Shet and Rom Clement, experienced technology executives who led the development of Lyft’s Self Driving Car and Google Street View. Teleo is backed by YCombinator, Up Partners, F-Prime Capital, and a host of industry luminaries. Teleo’s product is already deployed on customer sites and generating revenue.

Teleo has recently raised $XX Million and is looking to grow rapidly. This is an opportunity to build a real customer-impact driven product, work on cool 100,000 Lbs autonomous robots, engineer complex systems at the intersection of hardware, software, AI, and get in on the ground floor of a hot startup.

About the Role

As a Firmware Engineer, you will be working with a small team to implement, test, and validate on-board firmware used for Teleo's Supervised Autonomy.

With a high attention to detail, you will be involved in the testing, validation, and deployment of firmware on proprietary Teleo ECUs. Interfacing daily with software, and hardware engineers, you will be directly involved in the launch of new heavy equipment supported by Teleo.

The ideal candidate will have demonstrated experience in developing high-quality firmware on microcontrollers with a clear safety driven passion for robotics .

Minimum Qualifications

• Undergraduate or graduate degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science in progress
• Proven experience bringing up PCBAs, µC and developing algorithms on RTOS
• Strong interest in embedded firmware development for safety-critical application

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in board hardware bring-up
• History of contributing to projects in C/C++/Rust/Python ideally using software development tools (such as GitHub)
• Strong experience working with embedded microcontrollers (Ti, NXP, STM, ESP...)
• Experience with protocols/interfaces such as I2C, CAN, PWM, SPI
• Experience with Linux (bash, Python, git) command-line scripting and revision control
• Interest in developing hardware in the loop tests and automation for manufacturing
• Ability to travel to construction job sites
• Interest in robotics and autonomous vehicles in particular

Teleo has developed a Hardware + Software kit that can turn any heavy construction equipment (like excavator, dozer, mining trucks...) into an autonomous robot.
