About dScribe AI

dScribe uses computer vision to track bulk inventory such as piles of grain, sand, and other materials. We provide operations teams with actionable projections and insights based on real-world inventory and operational data.

We’ve raised $4.1M from FCVC, Flyover Capital, KCRise Fund, Abstraction Capital, Redbud VC, EquipmentShare, and others.

We’re a Kansas City–based team on a mission to transform how industries operate - starting from the ground up.

About the role

As a Founding Engineer at dScribe, you will work directly with the founders to build the product from the ground up and help shape our engineering culture.

You will wear many hats as we deploy custom hardware and software for edge AI and computer vision systems. We are looking for a full product engineer who can take an idea from concept, to the hardware needed to collect data, to backend infrastructure, and then to the frontend that presents insights to users.

You will work closely with the CTO on cutting-edge AI and vision projects. We move fast and genuinely love what we do. You will work in person with the founders at least three days a week, designing, prototyping, shipping, and iterating. You will have real ownership and deploy your work at live customer sites.

We enjoy tackling custom hardware challenges. One day you might be flying a drone, another day you might be setting up cameras at a dairy farm, and the next day testing models on an RC car.

What you will do

  • Develop computer vision software systems
  • Prototype and test new hardware
  • Deploy edge AI solutions on real-world sites
  • Build reliable backend and infrastructure components
  • Ship full-stack software end to end

Requirements

  • Scrappy and execution-driven: You move quickly, stay pragmatic, and focus on getting value into customers hands
  • Strong sense of ownership: You take responsibility for features and products and work independently after planning
  • Full-stack experience: You are comfortable building and shipping web applications end to end, regardless of framework
  • Curiosity and love for hardware: You enjoy prototyping and participating in on-site deployments
  • Builder mindset: You like solving hard problems, staying calm under pressure, and making things happen

We will review your application and reach out if there is a mutual fit.

Technology
  • Python for computer vision and edge services
  • Ruby on Rails for backend services
  • React and Inertia.js for the frontend
  • Edge compute devices and VPS for deployments
  • SQLite and Postgres for data storage
