Build the sensing edge.

TALOS Defence Inc hires engineers, scientists and program staff who want their work in the hands of operators within the year.

Values

Mission first

We work on problems that matter to allied operators and critical-infrastructure defenders.

Operator-grounded

We field with units. Feedback loops are measured in weeks, not years.

Engineering rigor

Calibrated, benchmarked, reproducible. No magic.

Ethical use

Human-on-the-loop is a baseline, not a feature.

Open Roles
ENG-PCB-01

PCB Design & Hardware Engineer

Remote·Full-time

Own rapid PCB prototyping for our sensing and edge-AI hardware — from schematic to bring-up.

ESP32STM32Power ElectronicsRapid PrototypingSystems Integration
Responsibilities
  • Design and iterate PCBs for rapid prototypes, from schematic capture through layout and bring-up
  • Bring up and validate firmware/hardware around ESP32 and STM32 platforms
  • Design custom power solutions — regulation, battery management, EMI and thermal considerations — for field-deployed hardware
  • Integrate sensors, RF front-ends, and compute modules into compact, ruggedized enclosures
  • Work closely with software and ML teams to bridge hardware, firmware, and software boundaries
  • Manage prototype fabrication and assembly with contract manufacturers
Requirements
  • Track record of taking PCB designs from concept to working prototype (portfolio or examples requested)
  • Hands-on experience with ESP32 and STM32 microcontroller families
  • Experience designing custom power circuits (DC-DC, LDO, battery charging and protection)
  • Comfortable with full hardware integration — sensors, connectors, RF, mechanical constraints
  • Familiarity with tools such as KiCad or Altium and basic bench instrumentation
  • Self-directed and comfortable working remote with a small, fast-moving team
ENG-SWE-01

Systems Software Engineer

Remote·Full-time

Build the software backbone of our edge-AI and sensing systems — from embedded Linux to distributed services.

GoRustCPythonLinuxDocker
Responsibilities
  • Design and build systems software across embedded Linux devices and backend services
  • Write performance-critical code in Rust and C for edge inference and sensor pipelines
  • Build and maintain services and tooling in Go and Python
  • Containerize, deploy, and operate workloads with Docker across edge and cloud environments
  • Collaborate with hardware and ML engineers to integrate software with custom PCBs and embedded targets
  • Own reliability, testing, and CI/CD for the software you ship
Requirements
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals with production experience in at least two of Go, Rust, C, Python
  • Comfortable working in Linux environments, including embedded or resource-constrained targets
  • Experience with Docker and containerized deployment workflows
  • Bonus: experience with embedded systems, device drivers, or real-time constraints
  • Bonus: experience with computer vision, sensor fusion, or edge ML inference
  • Self-directed and comfortable working remote with a small, fast-moving team
