Core Engineer - C++

At Coram AI, we’re reimagining video security for the modern world. Our cloud-native platform uses computer vision and AI to help businesses stay safe, make smarter decisions, and move faster; from real-time alerts to seamless clip sharing and multi-site visibility. You’ll be joining an ambitious, fast-moving team that values clarity, craftsmanship, and impact. Every person here has a voice, ships meaningful work, and helps shape how AI can make the world safer and more connected. The role: Our stack cuts across many technologies (front-end, backend, edge-computing, machine learning), and you will be responsible for a large part of our edge-computing stack powering Coram Point. Responsibilities: - Build edge applications processing vision data and communication layers for the compute-constrained edge devices - Deploy machine learning models to production, optimizing the platform runtime for maximum performance - Operating largely C++ code with parts of the pipeline running on GPU - Build observability and telemetry Skills and qualifications: - A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science - 3-8 years of experience in data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented - Strong programming in C++ and strong understanding of Linux - Knowledge of any other development language, including Java, Python, and Shell scripts - Edge/IoT computing experience (we have a fleet of deployed edge computers) is a plus - Infrastructure management experience (we use Salt) is a plus - Monitoring experience (we use Grafana) is a plus - Video processing & streaming experience (we use Gstreamer) is a plus - Experience interfacing ML models (we use PyTorch) is a plus - Resilient in challenging and fast-paced environments - Exceptional written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to influence at all levels - Ability to work in an onsite environment What we offer: - Flexible paid time off and paid holidays - Early-stage equity in a rapidly growing company - Referral bonuses - Regular team off-sites - The latest Apple products and unlimited tech stack (Claude Cowork, Perplexity Computer, Nooks, Clay, Instantly, etc.) We're on a mission to transform a $50B+ legacy industry by bringing the power of cutting-edge multimodal LLMs and computer vision to real-world security and operations. From firearm detection to intelligent access control, our AI-native platform turns every camera and sensor into a smart system that enhances safety, efficiency, and awareness. Founded by Ashesh Jain (ex-Lyft Level 5, PhD Cornell) and Peter Ondruska (ex-Lyft, PhD Oxford), Coram AI is backed by Ansa Capital, Battery Ventures, Mosaic, 8VC and Up Partners, have raised over $65M, and were named to the CB Insights AI 100 as one of the most promising AI companies in the world. If you're excited to work on mission-critical AI that makes an impact in the real world, we’d love to meet you.
