Mecka AI is building the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI. The company designs and operates global systems for data capture, data labeling, and hardware-enabled workflows used by leading AI labs and robotics companies to train and validate humanoid and embodied AI systems.
In this role, you will build embedded Linux software that transforms cameras and sensors into reliable recording systems for robot learning. Your work will preserve the timing and integrity of data from initial board bring-up through years of production operation.
Key responsibilities include:
- Develop and debug embedded Linux software on real capture hardware, from board bring-up through deployment
- Build reliable services and data paths that preserve recordings through long sessions and handle interrupted operations
- Measure and improve system performance, power consumption, resource use, and recovery behavior
- Reproduce field failures with hardware and test engineers, and validate fixes across supported device configurations
- Solve problems close to the hardware where throughput, power, storage, and recovery must work together
You should bring depth in at least one of these specializations:
- Camera systems: Linux drivers, capture and encoding, sensor synchronization, buffering, storage throughput, and sustained recording performance
- Device platforms: boot and system images, provisioning, device identity, remote updates, rollback, and recovery after interrupted installations
REQUIREMENTS:
- Strong C or C++ skills and proficiency in Python or shell scripting for embedded development
- Understanding of Linux processes, threads, memory management, I/O, filesystems, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience developing and troubleshooting software on ARM or comparable embedded hardware
- Ability to profile resource use and reason about concurrency, timing, data integrity, and failure recovery
- Experience building reproducible software releases and testing behavior under realistic hardware and operating conditions
NICE TO HAVE:
- Experience with V4L2, GStreamer, camera ISPs, Yocto, Buildroot, signed updates, or hardware-in-the-loop testing
