Software Engineer

Valinor Reflex is seeking a Software Engineer to join our small, hands-on team building computer vision and wearable systems.

We're looking for a Software Engineer who can work across the full stack of an embedded system: from training a custom ML model, to writing firmware drivers, to building the interface the user actually touches. If you're energized by a fast-paced, build-first environment, we'd love to meet you.

Deploy machine learning models on hardware-constrained devices

Evaluate current Open Source models and customize them to Reflex specific needs, optimizing performance through quantization and MLOps practices

Build and train custom models for customer use cases

Be able to articulate trade-offs and differences between different ML techniques

Build intuitive, modern UI interfaces across platforms

Manage user interaction with Reflex products ensuring a smooth UX

Develop software alongside hardware teams

Write low-level code and interact directly with component drivers

Develop software to use wireless communication protocols (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.)

Ensure robust communication and performance across embedded systems

Strong experience in embedded systems, microcontrollers, Linux development, and hardware constrained ML

Ability to prototype quickly and debug across hardware and software layers

Excited to build from the ground up in a startup environment

Willing to travel occasionally and collaborate hands-on with hardware in lab settings

Competitive salary, equity packages, and benefits, including health, dental, and vision insurance - fully covered for employees, 401K, development stipends, among others.

Unlimited PTO and two-week company holiday at the end of every calendar year.

We are a pro-mental health and pro-family company - we actually encourage employees to spend time with themselves and their families. Valinor also provides fertility benefits to those just beginning that journey.

Fun work environment - we like to laugh and take care of each other, but we also deeply respect the mission in front of us.

This role requires the candidate be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance. Active clearance preferred.
