About the role
The Role
Have you ever wanted to work on firmware for a jet engine and a fusion power plant in the same day? As we continue to scale our product, we’re seeking a resourceful, product-obsessed founding embedded engineer to help us bring about a step change in what hardware companies are able to develop. This is a hands-on role - you’ll report directly to the CTO and work closely with the CEO, exercising real ownership over the BootLoop product portfolio. You’ll be our closest interface to customers, using BootLoop daily to dream up new workflows and product areas, building prototypes, and helping clients solve their hardest firmware problems. As the company grows, you’ll help create a team of incredible engineers around you.
The Team
BootLoop was founded by Chris and Noah. Chris was previously at SpaceX where he was the Software Lead for the Starship Booster Catch and the Firmware Lead for the Raptor Engine. Noah is an AI/ML researcher who has built edge AI systems spanning the microwatt and milliwatt scale all the way up to agent frameworks, for companies like NVIDIA and L'Oréal. Together, we've built a team of engineers from Uber, xAI, Microsoft, and SpaceX - people who've shipped at the highest levels of software and hardware, and who are now focused on reshaping how firmware gets built.
What You’ll Do
- Own major product areas end-to-end. Conceive, design, implement, and ship features across our platform - from desktop application to cloud stack - in close collaboration with customers
- Be our resident creative technologist. Use BootLoop every day to prototype new workflows, discover new product opportunities, and build out experiences that showcase what’s possible
- Work directly with clients across industries - rockets, fusion, supersonic aircraft, medical devices - serving as a trusted technical partner who helps them solve firmware challenges in the most efficient way possible
