Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2024)

Skydio is the leading US drone company and the world leader in aerial autonomy. Our mission is to make the world more productive, creative, and safe with autonomous flight. Today tens of thousands of our robots are flown at scale to inspect critical infrastructure and provide life-saving intelligence, and we have one of the best robotics teams on the planet in support of these goals.

Our X10 drone features NVIDIA Orin and Qualcomm 865 processors with 85 TOPS of compute capability, along with onboard 360 trinocular camera coverage. We develop real-time 3D reconstruction and semantic AI so that our robot can understand the world around it and make intelligent decisions.

We’re looking for infrastructure engineers and a director for our autonomy team who love making code for flying robots and for making our engineering team more productive. Experience with Python and C++, performance optimization, systems infrastructure, first-principles thinking, 3D visualization, communication and logging. full-stack web apps, and build systems all welcome. Very strong software engineering and computer science fundamentals required.

I lead the autonomy team and you can reach me at { hayk at skydio dot com }.

HRL Laboratories is a private, scientific laboratory that has been in business since 1960. We are best known for having created the first working laser.

We are doing R&D on quantum computing, from fabrication to algorithms, all in-house, using a tech called exchange-only silicon dot qubits. We are looking for both senior engineering and management to help build out our compiler stack for a quantum programming language. We recently presented it, along with our language-oriented development approach, at the biggest physics conference: APS March Meeting. [1]

The quantum computing group uses Common Lisp, Coalton, Python, C++, and JavaScript to build a state-of-the-art operating system for physicists researching silicon dot quantum computers. Compiler development is done primarily in Common Lisp.

Those who are excellent programmers experienced with

- functional programming, and/or Lisp, and/or statically typed ML-descendants;

- compilers, machine architecture;

- and solid undergraduate mathematics and advanced computer science

are most qualified. We can train you on Lisp, Coalton, and quantum if the fundamentals are there. Knowledge of quantum computing is not necessary for most software engineering roles.

Interview process: phone call, "take-home" exercise, on-site interview (no whiteboarding), reference checks, and offer.

Candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance, and must be willing to relocate to southern California.
