Job Description

 

Senior C++ Engineer (AI Inference / Real-Time Systems)

Want to build AI systems where milliseconds actually matter?

You’ll join a team developing a next-generation surgical platform, combining real-time AI, advanced imaging, and tightly integrated hardware. This isn’t model training or offline experimentation. It’s about how AI behaves in the real world, under strict latency, reliability, and regulatory constraints.

You’ll work on low-latency inference systems running in tens of milliseconds, directly impacting how critical decisions are made in live environments.

This is systems engineering at its core.

You’ll design and optimise C++ pipelines that handle real-time data from cameras and sensors, ensuring models run predictably, efficiently, and safely. The work sits close to the hardware, close to the constraints, and close to the outcome.

There’s real ownership here. You’ll help shape the core inference framework as it evolves, not just contribute to it.

You’ll join a small, high-calibre team with experience across robotics, imaging, and AI systems. They’ve already secured strong funding and are building toward a regulated, production-ready platform.

What you’ll focus on:

  • Building real-time, multithreaded C++ pipelines for AI inference
  • Optimising latency, memory usage, and system performance across CPU and GPU
  • Working closely with imaging pipelines, cameras, and sensor data
  • Contributing to GPU-accelerated components where relevant (CUDA)
  • Developing production systems within a regulated (FDA) environment

What you’ll bring:

  • Strong experience with modern C++ (C++17/20+)
  • Background in real-time or latency-sensitive systems
  • Experience with multithreading, concurrency, and performance optimisation
  • Familiarity with AI inference or computer vision pipelines
  • Experience working in regulated environments (FDA, IEC 62304 or similar)

You might also have experience with CUDA, hardware integration, or medical imaging systems, but it’s not essential.

This is the kind of role where engineering decisions have real-world consequences. Performance, determinism, and reliability aren’t nice-to-haves, they’re fundamental.

Package:
Salary: $160,000 – $200,000 base
Bonus: 10–15%
Equity: Meaningful upside
Location: Remote (US & Europe)

If you’re interested in building real-time AI systems in environments where failure isn’t an option, it’s worth a conversation.
