About Knightscope Knightscope is a security technology company building the nation’s first Autonomous Security Force. The Company combines autonomous machines, advanced software, and human expertise to help protect people, property, and critical infrastructure. Knightscope’s long-term mission is to make the United States of America the safest country in the world.
Job Summary Knightscope is seeking a Mid/Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join our product development team and support a new hardware program. In this role, you will lead software system design, subsystem development, component integration for a wearable technology product—from early prototyping through production readiness. You will work cross-functionally with mechanical, electrical, systems and other software engineers in a fast-paced, gate-driven product development environment and play a critical role in shaping a first-of-its-kind platform.
Location Requirement Full-time, on-site at Sunnyvale HQ
About the Role The role is an on-site, ownership-driven position within a multidisciplinary program team, requiring a hands-on engineer who is comfortable operating in ambiguity and driving decisions across mechanical, electrical, and software boundaries. You will be expected to make thoughtful tradeoffs and carry designs from early concept
Key Responsibilities IMU Integration
Interface with IMU chip (gyroscope/accelerometer) via SPI or I2C communication protocols
Read, parse, and timestamp raw IMU sensor data in real time
Calibrate IMU for bias, drift, noise, and temperature compensation
Implement sensor fusion algorithms (e.g., Kalman filter, Madgwick filter) to produce accurate orientation and motion estimates
Video Stabilization
Develop Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) algorithms using IMU motion data
Compute camera motion trajectories and apply correction transforms to video frames
Minimize latency between IMU data capture and video frame correction
Tune stabilization parameters to balance smoothness vs. responsiveness
System Integration
Synchronize IMU data timestamps with video frame timestamps precisely
Integrate stabilization pipeline into the embedded system or host application
Optimize algorithms for real-time performance on target hardware (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, ARM SoC)
Work with camera/hardware team to understand the mechanical and optical constraints
Testing & Validation
Design test procedures to evaluate stabilization quality under various motion conditions
Measure and benchmark latency, jitter, and stabilization accuracyDebug and resolve issues related to sensor noise, frame drops, or timing misalignment
Required Qualifications
B.S. or M.S. degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or a related field.
7+ years of software engineering experience, including shipping software on hardware products.
Hands‑on experience interfacing with IMU or other MEMS sensors
Demonstrated experience with real‑time systems and low‑latency data processing
Prior work on image or video processing pipelines is strongly preferred
Experience with robotics, drones, action cameras, or autonomous vehicles is a big plus
Strong proficiency in C and C++
Experience with SPI, I2C, and UART communication protocols
Solid understanding of digital signal processing (DSP) concepts
Familiarity with sensor fusion techniques (Kalman filter, complementary filter, etc.)
Experience with Linux‑based embedded systems or RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr)
Compensation & Benefits
Base Salary: $150,000 - $180,000
Equity: Stock options
Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), paid time off
