Senior Software Engineer, Platform & HW Adaptation

About the job

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to bring Distance's XR runtime to the hardware our products actually ship on. Our displays cover the full range of see-through XR, from headset-free autostereoscopic systems built into vehicles to rugged head-mounted displays used in the field, and they run on an equally wide range of embedded targets. You own the layer where our runtime meets that hardware: the display path, the sensors, the power envelope, and the toolchain that makes it all buildable.

WHY DISTANCE?

At Distance Technologies, the problem we're solving is simple to state and hard to solve: the amount of data in the world is endless, but human capacity is not. We are building a fundamentally new perception layer between humans and machines, transforming transparent surfaces into interfaces unlike the world has ever seen. Think of the windscreen of a car, the visor of a helmet, or a sight device, each becoming a new front-end for AI. The way we turn bits and atoms into expanded human perception is protected by over 50 granted patents internationally. We build it for two demanding worlds: defense and automotive. And we build it from a single foundation fusing software, hardware and computational optics.
