We use light to control how living cells produce therapeutic proteins — optogenetic cell engineering, custom illumination hardware, and real-time ML bioprocess control — to drive down cost and scale up production of next-generation therapies.
With our technology scaling from the lab to the real world of biomanufacturing, we're now hiring a foundational software engineer to build the platform tying together our hardware, firmware, cloud, and internal tooling — high ownership over architecture and direction. This is a systems role across the hardware/software boundary (not web/SaaS), working directly with embedded, mechanical, data, and even bioprocess engineers.
Looking for: strong systems thinking; Python + one of TS/Go/Rust; cloud-connected services; comfort interfacing and debugging software against hardware (serial, TCP/IP); Linux. MS + 5 yrs or BS + 7 yrs. Bonus: Industrial IoT (MQTT Sparkplug B, OPC UA, SCADA/MES), regulated-industry data integrity (21 CFR Part 11, GAMP 5), or embedded C/C++.

Wand (40M+ gamers) builds the augmentation and intelligence layer for PC gaming — real-time game-state reading powering a unified ecosystem across desktop, web, and native in-game overlays. Contextual help, interactive maps, and video clipping delivered exactly when a player needs it, without alt-tabbing out of the game.
We're hiring a senior IC to own meaningful parts of the native infrastructure underneath all of that. This is platform-team work at the seam between Windows, third-party game engines, and our product. You'll make architecture calls the rest of engineering lives with for years, and you'll measure success by what other teams shipped on top of your foundation — not by what you personally wrote. Recently shipped: a plugin system for safe in-process extensions; current work includes a Lua scripting layer on top of it.
What we're looking for: - 7+ years C++, meaningful time on tools/engines/platform systems where your users were other engineers - Deep Windows native: Win32/64, DLL lifecycles, hooking, IPC, process/thread management, WinDbg/Process Monitor - Strong concurrent programming — you spot races and ordering bugs in review without a checklist - Plugin/extensibility experience: you've designed an interface someone else built on, and lived with the result - Outcome-oriented, low-ego
Bonus: Unreal/Unity internals, full-stack TS/Electron down to C++, scripting/SDK layer (Lua/AngelScript/DSL), OBS or video capture internals, gRPC/Protobuf/FlatBuffers.
Fully remote, competitive comp + equity.
We build radar + ML for smart cities, sports analytics, smart buildings, and defense perception. Our sensors see what cameras can't — 24/7, through walls/weather/crowds, with no faces and no audio. Customers include the Dutch police, Gemeente Den Haag, Gemeente Amsterdam, KLM, Koninklijke Marechaussee. TU Delft partner.
Hiring our first Radar AI Engineer to own the full pipeline end-to-end: raw FMCW/MIMO signal in, deployed embedded model out (ONNX, TensorRT, edge TPUs). Real hardware. Real customers. Privacy-first by design.
Looking for: MSc/PhD in ML / EE / signal processing; strong PyTorch + Python; embedded deployment experience; Rust or C/C++ a plus. EU-based or NL-visa-eligible (we sponsor highly-skilled-migrant + 30%-ruling for the right person).
Process: first call in 5 days, decision in 3 weeks. Founder-led, no multi-month limbo.

As such, our platform is regulated as a Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) product by the FDA and we operate under HIPAA, ISO 13485, and ISO 27001.
We're hiring a Principal Platform Engineer to own our cloud infrastructure and developer platform: AWS, containers, Terraform, CI/CD, observability, and the self-service tooling that lets our application teams ship quickly inside a regulated SDLC.
We are looking for: 7+ years in DevOps/SRE/platform roles, deep AWS, strong IaC, comfort with containers (ECS/Fargate, Kubernetes), and one language you reach for when building tooling (Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, C++). Healthcare or regulated-industry experience is a plus, but not a requirement.
On-call is a shared rotation, roughly 2–3 weeks per quarter, business-day coverage only (9am–midnight ET, no overnights).

Stpkr Technologies is hiring for the following roles to build the next generation of wearable devices.
We are currently looking for the following 4 roles but we are also open to interviewing any candidates who feel like they will do their best work here - even if your skillset/experience doesn't fit the current defined roles. Our current team doesn't fit the conventional mold, and we don't expect our future hires will either. If you don't fit the advertised roles, just send us a mail per the same process with whatever job title would fit you the best.
Work is in person near Noida Sector 18, walking distance from Sector 18 Metro Station. We prefer in office work, but we are super flexible overall, it will be hands down one of the best work environments you can get. Pay is competitive, and there are opportunities to earn meaningful equity down the line. We prefer current and recent undergraduates for our roles. If you are still in college we welcome you to apply nonetheless provided you can work as an intern for us in person. Super-flexible overall and all of our current team started out as interns.
Hiring across OS, full-stack, and hardware. AI policy across all roles: you should be able to do the work without AI, and much faster with it.
Android Systems Engineer (AOSP/BSP) - Everything at the OS layer. You've rooted phones, flashed custom ROMs, broken and fixed Linux for fun. Comfortable in C/C++. GitHub with kernel-adjacent or LineageOS-type projects a plus. Stack: Android, Linux, C, C++, Java. _Filter: send us something you built where you had to fight the OS or hardware.
Full-Stack Engineer (Apps + Backend + ML) - Everything at the platform layer. Generalist who ships end-to-end. Skill check: can build a crude-but-working facial recognition system (camera → model → DB → backend). (using existing facial recog models) Bonus for weird/constrained hardware work or running ML on edge devices. Stack: Android, Java, Python, TypeScript. _Filter: send the most useful thing you've built and used (no CRUD slop). Even better if you still use it for yourself.
Hardware Engineer - Bring-up/Debug/Integration - Take EVT/DVT boards and make them work. Comfortable with J-Link and IDE debugging, reading schematics and reference designs. KiCad/Altium/EasyEDA hobby work would make you ideal. PetaLinux experience or hunger to learn it. ECE undergrad fine. _Filter: photo of a board you designed or debugged, plus what went wrong.
Hardware Engineer - Power/RF/Wireless - Make the power and RF paths behave on EVT/DVT boards. Hands-on with schematic capture, layout, soldering, scope/logic analyzer.

Founder's Office - Work closely with the founder and the rest of the team to manage the day to day and long term affairs of the company, the Man Friday of the company. Must have a decent degree of technical knowledge (we are a tech company after all) and be efficient at administrative tasks as well as management. Speed and learning ability are prized here, there will not always be a clear path to the work you have to do here, so you will have to figure some of it out on your own.
