Somewhere in a senior living community right now, a camera and a small computer are working together to figure out whether the person who just fell is okay. The community’s network connection may be fiddly and unreliable, and the deployed hardware has its own quirks. That system is one of thousands just like it, running software your team wrote, doing work that matters if something goes wrong.
This is the job: building and evolving the systems that enable edge hardware (including cameras and other sensors), and cloud infrastructure to work together reliably, at scale, even when a connection drops or a device behaves in a way nobody planned for.
If you’ve spent real time in Linux, networking, or hardware because you were curious rather than because a job required it, we think you could thrive in this role. We care less about whether you’ve used our exact stack before and more about whether you’re the kind of engineer who takes a system apart, mentally or literally, until you understand why it works.
You’ll define the architecture for Sage’s edge computing platform, own hard and often unsolved problems (e.g. fall detection, resident location tracking, integrating unpredictable third-party hardware), and help set the technical bar for the engineering org. You’ll also mentor other engineers and be a voice in how we build, not just what we build.
