About the job
At TerraFirma, we are revolutionizing the construction industry by automating earth movement processes. Founded by a team of former SpaceX engineers and supported by Bain Capital Ventures, our mission is to enhance construction efficiency, making it faster, more affordable, and safer.
Our Story & Vision
At SpaceX, we contributed to monumental projects, including the largest rocket ever built and the largest satellite constellation. This experience taught us that infrastructure is paramount.
During our time at Starbase, we identified that the primary challenge in launching missions to Mars was not the rocket itself, but rather the slow and costly process of building the necessary infrastructure, including buildings, roads, water, power, and communication systems.
We recognized that the same engineering principles that enabled space exploration can be applied to infrastructure development. By simplifying, iterating, accelerating, and automating construction processes, we aim to usher in a new era of building.
Accelerating infrastructure development can drive progress in various fields, ultimately creating a sustainable engine to address humanity's most pressing challenges. The innovations we create on Earth will serve as a foundation for future endeavors, including Mars colonization.
Job Overview
In this pivotal role, you will have hands-on ownership of systems that encompass both hardware and software across analog and digital domains. Initially, you will spearhead the development of a new Digital Signal Processing (DSP) system from concept through to functional prototype, overseeing the complete hardware and software stack. Daily responsibilities will include RF frontend design, digital signal analysis, field testing, and algorithm creation for detecting patterns and synthesizing sensor data to derive meaningful insights from RF and electromagnetic interactions.
In addition to custom hardware development, you will manage validation and testing campaigns as required.
