Job description

You are a good fit if...

• You love the grind: You take ownership and put in the time to meet deadlines. We are excited when we have a late night install because it means we have a new project launching.

• You are detail obsessed: You have experience writing code that stands up to the unpredictability of the physical world, where the small details are the difference between success and failure.

• You are "Fluid": We are a lean team and we flex across functional areas as needed. You will be challenged to learn quickly and figure out what you need to do to be productive.

• You code really well: We mostly use Python and TypeScript, but we don’t care what you’re most proficient in today—as long as you learn fast.

The Role: Electrical Engineer

The Mission: Our technological lead is built on hardware that simply doesn\'t fail. You are responsible for ensuring our roadside systems—solar power generation, cell connectivity, and high-speed sensors—operate with 99.99% reliability in the harshest environments.

• Hardening the System: Deep-dive into the reliability of our power systems and connectivity, ensuring our "secret sauce" remains insurmountable.

• End-to-End Design: Own the development of schematics, PCBs, housing, and cabling solutions for next-generation hardware.

• Manufacturing Evolution: Lead design iterations in CAD to improve the assembly yield and long-term serviceability of our devices.

• Hardware-Software Synthesis: Write the code that lives on the edge. You understand the friction between a sensor\'s physical limitations and the software\'s requirements.

Requirements

• Education: MS or BS in Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related technical field.

• Experience: You have built physical hardware. Whether at work or as a hobbyist (Raspberry Pi, ESP32, custom PCBs) we want to see what you\’ve brought to life.

• Technical Versatility: You have a foundational understanding of circuit design and CAD, and you aren\'t afraid to write code. You should be comfortable in (or excited to learn) Python or C++ to make your hardware talk to our software.

• Mindset: You are excited to work at a startup and be part of a core engineering team. You don\'t wait for a manual or a step-by-step guide; you figure out what you need to get stuff done and you do it with a professional, "owner" mentality. You understand that in a small team, feedback is the fastest way to level up and you welcome it.

• Denver: You’re excited about moving to Denver and eager to collaborate in person. While we have a hybrid work model, some roles are simply most effective when in the office or shop. Building hardware for the physical world requires testing and getting your hands dirty; that’s half the fun.

Our Technical Ecosystem: While we value problem-solving over specific syntax, skills that transfer well are:

• Languages: Python, TypeScript, C++

• Tools: Altium, Onshape, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers

• Infrastructure: Linux, IoT Edge Devices, AWS

• Specialties: On-edge Computer Vision, CAD, weatherproofing, outdoor deployment, vertical product integration

The Essentials (Health & Wealth)

• Relocation Support: We are excited for you to join the team at our engineering office in Denver. We value in-person collaboration and daily team lunches and we provide a relocation bonus to help you get here.

• Personalized Health Coverage (ICHRA): We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all healthcare. We provide a monthly allowance for you and dependents so you can choose the individual plan that actually fits your life.

• Investing in Your Future: 401(k) matching up to 4%.

• Peace of Mind: Transparent compensation. Company-sponsored life & disability insurance.

• Early Stage Equity: Competitive equity package with 24-month exercise window. Every year, we facilitate a tender process that gives you the opportunity to sell your vested shares at the same valuation as our investors.

Rest & Recharge

• High-Trust Time Off: 4 weeks of untracked PTO. We don\'t micromanage your calendar; we focus on your impact. Take the time you need to stay sharp and inspired.

• Family First: 12 weeks of paid parental leave for birth and adoptive parents. We want you present for the moments that matter most.

• The Deep Breath (Sabbatical): Every 5 years, take 12 weeks of fully paid leave. Go travel, write a book, or master a new hobby—then come back and tell us all about it.

Fuel & Community

• The Blissway Kitchen: Whether it’s breakfast to start your day or our daily group lunches, we keep the team fueled.

• Snacks Autonomy: Our kitchen is fully stocked and we mean it—if we’re missing your favorite fuel, just add it to the request list.

• The "BlissTrip": An annual 3–4 day getaway for the team and significant others.

• Monthly Beats: Game nights, escape rooms, and dinners to celebrate the grit we put in.

• Continuous Learning: Tuition reimbursement for courses, programs, and conferences that sharpen your craft.
