Embedded Systems Engineer

Omnisent is pioneering scalable acoustic sensing powered by AI transforming audio into realtime intelligence.

We build hardware software tailored for acoustic data designed to extract insights from complex acoustic signals. Our proprietary ultralowpower sonic devices capture and process acoustic signals in realtime training what we call a Large Acoustic Model (LAM) our foundation model built to decode the rich messy and untapped world of nonspeech audio.

Were starting with the manufacturing industry applying our tech to compressed air systems one of the most overlooked sources of energy waste. From there were expanding into energy defense space and smart cities sectors where sound is the next frontier.

Tasks

Embedded Systems Design & Development

• Architect develop and test embedded firmware to translate detection algorithms and operating procedures for our sensor platform (sensor gateway) for embedded microcontrollers.
• Design and implement software drivers communication protocols (e.g. SPI IC UART CAN) and peripheral interfaces (including GPS data storage ADC) to ensure efficient device operation.
• Optimize code for performance datacompression power efficiency and reliability across various operating conditions and harsh environmental conditions.

Hardware & System Integration

• Collaborate with hardware mechanical and signal processing teams to integrate embedded systems with PCBs sensor interfaces and communication modules.
• Design and implement test routines to validate the reliability and responsiveness of the sensors infield at our pilots facilities.
• Support the prototyping process by refining hardware/software integration during rapid product iterations.

Debugging Testing & Documentation

• Lead debugging efforts using tools such as oscilloscopes logic analyzers and incircuit debuggers; identify and resolve integration issues to ensure robust performance.
• Prepare and document test procedures results and revisions during the system lifecycle.

CrossFunctional Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

• Work closely with electronic AI and mechanical teams to iterate on system improvements and adapt to evolving project requirements.
• Contribute to developing best practices and design documentation ensuring that knowledge is continuously shared among teams.
• Assist in coordinating with research labs and thirdparty test facilities to validate findings and translate research into practical embedded solutions.
