Job description

We’re on a mission to bring our Spatial AI technology to the material handling and robotics markets. This is an opportunity for an experienced, customer-facing engineer to work with Slamcore’s growing worldwide customer base to help them understand the value of our products and how best to use them.

• A chance to work in a fascinating industry. Other companies say they’re cutting edge; we’re literally at the forefront of spatial intelligence.
• Packed with benefits and perks, including hybrid working, enhanced employer pension contributions, unlimited external private coaching, frequent social events, cash to spend on your home setup, and more.
• Work closely with our sales, technical, and product management teams to enable our new customers to understand and learn how to apply our spatial AI technology.

The top line

As a part of our highly skilled team, you will be working on technologies including AI, computer vision, SLAM on low power, embedded devices.

This role is ideal for someone with a strong technical background who is passionate about making sure our customers get the best out of our products for their use cases. For the right candidate there is also the opportunity to take on leadership of the team as it continues to grow.

The good stuff

• Ideally, you’ll live within commuting distance of our London HQ, but we get that remote working – on an occasional or permanent basis – is here to stay, and we’re very much a hybrid-first company.
• 25 days’ holiday a year plus 8 UK public holidays – plus bonus time off between Christmas and New Year.
• Enhanced employer pension contributions.
• Private health insurance.
• Meaningful equity in a fast growing business.
• Flexible working arrangements.
• Generous professional and personal development budget, including unlimited private coaching sessions with More Happi.
• Frequent team social events, free weekly team lunches, snacks and a fully stocked drinks fridge at our Borough HQ.
• Your own company card for getting equipment, training, books, snacks, and coffee etc.
• £500 to spend on your work from home setup.
• Enhanced parental leave.

The day-to-day

• Consult with customers during pre-sales activities ensuring Slamcore products provide the right solution.
• Design, build and present demonstrations showcasing our product capabilities.
• Customise software solutions to meet identified customer requirements as part of integration and deployment.
• Manage and support multiple customer projects and sales opportunities.
• Provide in-person and remote support to customers using our products.
• Work closely with commercial, product and engineering teams to help identify, scope and prioritise solutions to the highest value challenges our customers have.
• Travel to customer sites (approximately 25% of the time, mostly within Europe and the US).
• Support marketing activities, e.g., blogs, case studies and trade shows.

The must-haves

• Experience working with embedded computer systems in industrial settings.
• Comfortable working across the full software stack (e.g., C++, Python, ReactJS, HTML, etc.).
• Able to demonstrate system level understanding from low-level hardware to end user applications.
• Demonstrated experience of working directly with multiple customers to achieve successful outcomes.
• Strong time management and preparation skills.
• Able to interact with customers from high level use case to low level technical details.
• Excellent communication skills.
• Comfortable analysing, interpreting and presenting complex data.
• Willing and able to travel internationally for extensive periods of time.

The nice-to-haves

• Familiarity with computer vision and ideally visual SLAM.
• Familiarity with robotics (AMRs and AGVs).
• Familiarity with cloud compute deployments.
• Experience working in a start-up.
• Experience of building and leading a team.
