Hardware Engineer

We are seeking a highly driven founding Systems Embedded Engineer to build the core foundation of our product. Our mission is to live monitor and predict when the vessel is going to fail through hardware sensors.

We build full stack predictive maintenance solutions from sensors to ML. We help ship operators monitor and predict mechanical failures without dry docking through our predictive maintenance platform that includes sensors, management software, and a predictive ML model. Our sensors are already deployed on ferries and collecting live data alongside the paid contracts tugs, ferries, research vessels, cargos and government vessels.

We are looking for talented, motivated individuals to develop our sensors to the next level. We built sensors from customized PCBs, circuits and enclosures. You’ll work closely with a team of highly motivated and talented engineers who are devoted to the mission of changing how the maritime industry does their maintenance.

The Role

You will own much of the development of industrial sensing hardware, focusing on the design and deployment of robust solutions for harsh maritime environments. You’ll be responsible for the full lifecycle of hardware development, from schematic capture to assembly and testing.

What we're looking for

• Preferred: Experience in PCB design and schematic capture, EE Major (PhD)
• Sensor integration (accelerometers, thermal cameras, IMUs, etc.)
• Embedded systems / microcontrollers (ESP32, Raspberry Pi)
• Assembly, wiring, soldering, and bench testing
• Power regulation, connectors, and enclosure integration
• Bonus: Experience with industrial IoT, robotics, marine, automotive, or harsh-environment hardware.

Logistics and Stipend

• Full time: $130k+ and equity
• Location & Logistics: SF (not negotiable). US authorization preferred; visa sponsorship possible.

How to apply

Send us the things you've built. Links to projects, GitHub, demos, or anything you're proud of tell us. A short note on what you built, why, and what you'd want to own at Philyron.
