Theseus
GPS Denied Navigation for Drones
Founding Localization Engineer
About the role
Building visual positioning to solve reliability for the next 10 million drones. Looking for a localization engineer, who is a ruthless problem solver and iterates insanely fast. Must have experience with robotics, Python/C++, and be comfortable getting their hands dirty in the real world.
You’ll be working on our localization stack, focusing first on core algorithms (e.g., SLAM, place recognition, map matching) and data pipelines (we’ve got TBs of data to play with). You’ll get to fly your code ~every week in the US and ~every month in operational environments with real stakes.
Our company is small and moves fast. We’re laser focused on solving localization because we think it’s the biggest blocker to physical intelligence on drones. We provide extreme ownership and expect extreme accountability.
About Theseus
We are building a Visual Position System that is 10x lighter and cheaper than the nearest competitor. We have paying customers in the US DoD 6mo after starting the company. We enable rapid outfitting of any drone for autonomous navigation in contested environments.
