## Job description

## About the company

Every physical good spends time in a warehouse, and every warehouse tracks their inventory. Today, nearly 100% of warehouses track their inventory manually using barcode scanners and climbing forklifts. We're[Corvus Robotics](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/). Our fully autonomous[Corvus One](https://blog.corvus-robotics.com/corvus-one-launch-and-series-a-funding)™ drones use computer vision & robotics to automatically track inventory, improving worker safety and increasing labor efficiency. We believe that data-driven, safe inventory management will optimize the global physical economy and improve economic prosperity for humanity.

## About the role

We are hiring Computer Vision / Machine Learning Software Engineers to build compute-constrained models for deployed robots. You'll tackle diverse technical challenges, working with vast amounts of sensor data to increase environmental awareness and provide customers with deeper inventory insights. We value problem-solving, innovation, and continuous learning, and we encourage exploring new technologies to advance our machine learning capabilities.

## What you'll do

- Develop solutions for advanced computer vision tasks, including:
- Monocular and stereo depth estimation
- Learning-based structure-from-motion
- 3D occupancy networks
- Scene understanding
- Object detection
- Optimize performance, accuracy, and speed of compute-constrained models
- Collaborate across teams to deploy CV/ML models into production
- Improve ML pipelines and infrastructure for dataset management, training, and deployment
- Participate in R&D initiatives (20% of time) to experiment with state-of-the-art techniques
- Drive business value by leveraging your work across robotics, software, and deployment teams

This role is in-person hybrid in Mountain View, CA. US work authorization is preferred but not required, can sponsor visas.

Must have

- 5+ years of industry experience in Computer Vision / Machine Learning, Python/PyTorch
- Expertise in 2D and 3D computer vision techniques
- Proficiency with Linux, Git, AWS/GCP, and CI/CD workflows
- Experience in performance engineering for deep neural networks (both training and inference)
- Knowledge of model optimization techniques for embedded systems, including knowledge distillation, model quantization, and network pruning
- Adaptive and desire to assume responsibility in a fast-paced startup environment

## Nice to have

- Experience with C/C++
- Familiarity with ROS (Robot Operating System)
- Knowledge of model deployment frameworks (e.g., TensorRT, RKNN, OpenVINO, ONNX, CoreML)
- Experience with TypeScript/JavaScript and Django
- Experience with data labelers, tooling, and data management

## About Corvus Robotics

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Corvus Robotics provides an autonomous inventory intelligence platform for Fortune 500 and Global 2000 warehouses, using drones and AI copilots to automate cycle counting and material handling operations.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series unknown; backed by Y Combinator, S2G Ventures, Catalyst Investors, Spero Ventures, and Tesla’s cofounder)
- **Headquarters**: Mountain View, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2017
- **Founders**: Jackie Wu (CEO & Founder) and Kabir Mohammed (CTO & Co-Founder)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Industrial robotics / Warehouse automation / Supply chain intelligence
- **Target customers**: B2B — large enterprise (Fortune 500, Global 2000) operators of distribution centers, cold chain/freezer warehouses, and complex material handling facilities
- **Mission/purpose**: “Autonomous inventory intelligence for the physical economy” — the company exists to impact the physical economy of plants, manufacturers, distributors, and retailers, driving global economic growth by improving the supply chain.

## Products & Services
- **Corvus One®**: A fully autonomous warehouse inventory drone that flies without a pilot, stickers, or beacons, using onboard cameras for real-time scanning. Designed for cycle counting in ambient, cold chain, and freezer environments. Deployed in under one week on-site.
- **Corvus Trident™**: An AI Copilot installed on forklifts and other material handling equipment that tracks all pallet moves in real time, giving operators and managers instant visibility into inventory location changes.
- **Unified Operations Platform**: A single dashboard that aggregates data from Corvus One, Trident, and any existing WMS via API, providing one source of inventory truth and discrepancy alerts. Runs on-premise for enterprise data security.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation / Funding**: Not publicly disclosed. Institutional backers include Y Combinator, S2G Ventures, Catalyst Investors, Spero Ventures, and Tesla co-founder (implied via the company page). Also backed by executives from Amazon’s Kiva Systems.
- **Key Metric**: 300+ devices deployed across North America; 30 enterprise customers served; 26 U.S. states and territories with active deployments.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: S2G Ventures, Catalyst Investors, Spero Ventures, Y Combinator. Investors include leaders from Amazon Kiva Systems and Tesla.
- **Growth Signals**:
  - 9 distribution centers deployed with measurable results (some customers report 6x labor hours saved, recovery of $1.25M in lost inventory, reallocation of 35,000+ hours, and elimination of manual cycle counting across nine sites)
  - Launch of Corvus Trident AI Copilot (recent product expansion)
  - Appointment of Michael McSpedon as CRO (former 3x CRO who took companies to $100M+ revenue)
  - Strong headcount growth: actively hiring for multiple engineering, deployment, and assembly roles

## Competitive Advantages
- **Full autonomy**: Corvus One operates with no pilot, no stickers, no beacons — truly “lights out” warehouse autonomous flights.
- **Cold chain specialization**: Drones are purpose-built for freezer/cold storage environments where many competitors cannot operate.
- **On-prem data security**: Enterprise data stays on-premise, addressing compliance and security concerns of large logistics operators.
- **Dual product ecosystem**: Combining aerial drones (Corvus One) with forklift-mounted AI (Trident) covers both storage and movement visibility, creating a unified layer above the WMS.
- **Fast deployment**: “1 week on-site deployment” for most sites, supported by dedicated CS & implementation engineers.

## Strategic Focus
- **Physical AI expansion**: Extending from inventory counting to full material handling automation across all warehouse form factors.
- **Enterprise scaling**: Growing footprint within existing Global 2000 customer accounts and onboarding new Fortune 500 sites.
- **Product-line expansion**: Recent launch of Trident indicates a move into real-time pallet tracking and forklift-adjacent AI.
- **Geographic coverage**: Scaling deployments across North America (already in 26 states/territories) with a “built, deployed, and supported in the US” value proposition.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Mission-driven team focused on solving “some of the hardest problems” in robotics and AI with a pragmatic, direct communication style. Core values include “Whatever it takes,” “Be a good person,” and “Do work you’re proud of.”
- **Work policy**: Hybrid/onsite presence in Mountain View, CA (Bay Area). Some roles (like Assembly Technician and Hardware roles) require on-site work; software roles may have flexible hybrid schedules as noted by team testimonials.
- **Notable perks/culture highlights**:
  - High-density engineering talent — founders and CTO come from MIT and Northwestern robotics programs
  - Real-world impact: Employees work directly with customers to see robots in action in warehouses
  - “Cutting-edge innovation” in computer vision, robotics, and AI
  - Strong team culture described by current engineers as welcoming, collaborative, and focused on impactful work
  - Open to extraordinary talent: Career page explicitly invites candidates who don’t fit a job description to email career@corvus-robotics.com
- **Current open roles** (as of late 2024/2025): Robotics Software Engineer, Robotics Deployment Manager, Production Lead, Assembly Technician, Head of Marketing, and other specialized roles — signaling strong operational scaling.
