At MatrixSpace, we are building technology that bridges the physical and digital worlds — combining embedded systems, radar sensing, cloud computing, and AI to unlock powerful real-world intelligence.

We are seeking a Software Engineer with 2-4 years of industry experience and proven expertise in C/C , Go, and Python to join our core engineering team. This role focuses on building and scaling AI-driven platforms that operate across edge computing environments and cloud infrastructures.

You will support the design, implementation, and operation of our Platform Software, enabling high-performance data processing, AI inference, and real-time communication across distributed edge and cloud systems. The ideal candidate thrives in a startup environment, combining technical proficiency with a growth mindset and system-level thinking.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement platform software supporting AI workloads, edge inference, and distributed data pipelines across hybrid environments.
  • Lead architecture, design, and deployment of scalable systems in both cloud-based and on-premises runtime environments.
  • Develop and maintain high-performance components in C/C , Go, and Python, optimized for edge and real-time environments.
  • Build and manage API-based middleware that connects AI models, data services, and frontend interfaces.
  • Implement service-oriented architectures (SOA) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) frameworks to support modular, extensible system design.
  • Leverage Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for automated provisioning, deployment, and configuration management.
  • Employ containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes) for edge-to-cloud deployments and lifecycle management.
  • Integrate networking protocols (TCP/IP, HTTPS) for secure, high-throughput edge-cloud communication.
  • Use CMake and BASH scripting for build automation, testing, and deployment pipelines.
  • Collaborate using Git-based configuration management systems in a modern CI/CD environment.
  • Work closely with data scientists and AI engineers to embed ML models into production-grade edge systems.
  • Optimize performance, reliability, and scalability across resource-constrained and distributed computing environments.

Required Skills And Experience

Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship and may be required to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance in the future.

  • 2-4 years of software engineering experience in embedded, cloud, or distributed systems.
  • Proficiency in C/C , Go, and/or Python.
  • Strong knowledge of edge computing, AI platform development, or real-time data systems.
  • Understanding of TCP/IP and HTTPS for reliable and secure communication layers.
  • Proven experience with service-oriented architectures, Infrastructure-as-Code frameworks (Terraform, CloudFormation), and SaaS systems.
  • Hands-on experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud-native deployment.
  • Familiarity withCMake, BASH, and Linux-based build environments.
  • Experience using Git or similar configuration management systems in collaborative software development.
  • Exposure to AWS or other public cloud environments (Azure, GCP).
  • Strong debugging, profiling, and performance optimization skills in distributed runtime environments.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience building edge AI platforms, including model serving, data orchestration, or sensor-to-cloud integrations.
  • Familiarity with AI/ML deployment frameworks (e.g.,TensorRT, ONNX Runtime,TorchServe).
  • Understanding ofreal-time systems, streaming data, or event-driven architectures.
  • Working experience in databased such as Postgres and Redis
  • Experience with DevOps, CI/CD, and observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana).
  • Knowledge of security, identity, and network optimization in edge environments.

Why Join Us
