Learn more about our company and how we support you:

We are the surgical robot that assists a surgeon. The autonomous vehicle that navigates a warehouse floor. The train control system that keeps thousands of commuters on schedule. Somewhere inside that technology is an ADLINK product. Ampro ADLINK Technology designs and manufactures embedded computing hardware for industries where failure is not an option. Industrial automation, robotics, autonomous vehicles, healthcare, and intelligent transportation are just some of the markets we serve. Our products sit at the edge of these systems, processing data and providing real-time control where it happens, when it happens, not in a distant cloud.

Founded in 1995 and headquartered in Taiwan, we operate across the US, UK, Singapore, China, Japan, Korea, and Germany with products deployed in more than 40 countries. Our San Jose office drives our business across the Americas and works closely with technology partners, including Intel, NVIDIA, AMD, Qualcomm, and NXP.

If you want to work on hardware or software that ships into real-world applications — not prototypes, not demos — and grow alongside a team that has been leading-edge computing for three decades, we want to hear from you.

Whether you are a seasoned engineer or early in your career, what you build here will end up in the real world.
