Job Description At TerraFirma, we’re redefining how the world moves earth for construction. Founded by former SpaceX engineers and backed by Bain Capital Ventures, TerraFirma is automating construction to make it faster, cheaper, and safer. Our Story & Mission At SpaceX, we were part of the teams that built the largest rocket in human history, launched the largest constellation of satellites ever made, and delivered connectivity to millions of people worldwide. What we learned was simple: infrastructure is everything. At Starbase, the biggest barrier to launching missions to Mars was not building the rocket. It was how slow, expensive, and complex it was to build the infrastructure around it. We lacked buildings, roads, water, power, communications, and waste management, and constructing them took far more time and resources than it should have. From a first-principles perspective, that doesn't make sense. It shouldn't be this hard or costly to create the foundations for progress. That’s when we realized something important: the same engineering mindset that enabled us to tackle space exploration and mass manufacturing could be applied to infrastructure. By bringing the principles of simplification, iteration, acceleration, and automation to construction, we can unlock a new era in how the world builds. Accelerating infrastructure unlocks progress across every domain, creating a self-sustaining engine for tackling humanity’s toughest challenges. The innovations we develop on Earth will lay the groundwork for the technologies that one day make settlement on Mars possible. Job Overview You will design and deploy the algorithms that enable heavy machinery to perform complex tasks with advanced automation in dynamic, unstructured environments. Your focus will span state estimation, motion and trajectory planning, and control, taking ideas from simulation through to real-world deployment on multi-ton robotic platforms. You will architect systems that fuse data from diverse sensors, optimize movement on challenging job sites, and execute with reliability under real-time constraints. Responsibilities * State Estimation & Sensor Fusion – Design, implement, and deploy real‑time estimation pipelines that remain robust to sensor noise, vibration, and bias * Motion / Trajectory / Path Planning – Create high‑level planners and low‑level controllers that optimize for safety, efficiency, and task completion * Software & System Architecture – Own C++/Python codebases, and MCU firmware that realize Guidance, Navigation & Control functions on production hardware * Simulation & Tooling – Generate digital twins, Hardware-in-the-Loop setups, and interactive visualizations to validate algorithms before field trials * Field Deployment – Bring algorithms onto machines, run field experiments, diagnose issues, and iterate rapidly Basic Qualifications * B.S. in Robotics, Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field * 2+ years of professional or advanced research experience delivering robotic software from first‑principles modelling through hardware deployment * Proven track record owning large deliverables and driving multi‑disciplinary roadmaps Preferred Skills & Experience * Hands‑on deployment of Kalman filters or equivalent estimators on real‑world platforms (e.g., drones, tractors, autonomous vehicles, aircraft, rockets) * Deep familiarity with sensor‑fusion toolchains and libraries * Expertise in different motion planning frameworks * Strong C++17/C and Python skills on Linux * Background integrating and calibrating sensors such as IMUs, RTK‑GPS, wheel/arm encoders, LiDAR, and cameras Additional Requirements * Must be willing to work extended hours or weekends when needed to support critical deadlines or triage urgent deployment issues * Comfortable with working in a fast-paced startup environment * Must be willing to relocate to Austin, TX if not within commuting distance Compensation & Benefits Base compensation will vary based on factors such as relevant experience and education. Salaries and leveling will be determined on a case-by-case basis if an offer is extended. Our total compensation package also includes equity in TerraFirma. Relocation packages are available to help cover moving costs, if applicable.

Job DescriptionWe’re hiring experienced Architecture Modeling Engineers from junior to senior levels to play a key role in developing the designs that will bring our next-generation AI processors to life. About Us:Mythic is building the future of AI computing with breakthrough analog technology that delivers 100× the performance of traditional digital systems at the same power and cost. This unlocks bigger, more capable models and faster, more responsive applications - whether in edge devices like drones, robotics, and sensors, or in cloud and data center environments. Our technology powers everything from large language models and CNNs to advanced signal processing, and is engineered to operate from –40 °ree;C to +125 °ree;C, making it ideal for industrial, automotive, aerospace, and defense. We’ve raised over $100M from world-class investors including Softbank, Threshold Ventures, Lux Capital, and DCVC, and secured multi-million-dollar customer contracts across multiple markets. The salary range for this position is $120,000–$225,000+ annually. Actual compensation depends on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. Architecture Modeling at Mythic:At Mythic, architecture modeling is at the core of how we design and deliver breakthrough AI hardware. Our models allow us to quantify the real-world performance of new architectures—capturing critical tradeoffs in throughput, latency, and efficiency—before a single chip is built. Modeling plays a central role in active design development, predicting how AI workloads generated by the Mythic compiler will run on silicon. These models serve as a golden reference for verifying RTL implementations and enable our software teams to begin developing validation and customer-facing code long before hardware is available. Even after silicon arrives, our modeling tools remain invaluable, offering deeper insight into performance bottlenecks and guiding ongoing software optimization.Responsibilities • Architect and create various types of hardware models with varying goals - e.g. transaction-level, cycle-accurate., • Create or build on top of existing hardware models to simulate functionality of custom AI software., • Create prototyping models for estimating power, performance and area of new chip architectures., • Create cycle-accurate models of the hardware (C++/SystemC)., • Collaborate with peer engineering teams to co-design and co-verify the hardware implementation., • Investigate new architectural ideas, many co-designed with other system components.Requirements, • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science., • 5+ years experience required creating performance models for architectural investigations. This experience can include time spent in academic work including papers, thesis, and dissertation work. The years required can be reduced if prior modeling experience is related to systems for AI., • Academic and working knowledge of a variety of hardware concepts such as CPUs, memory systems, bus interconnects, security, chip interfaces, etc., • Proficiency and experience with C++/SystemC as used in modeling., • Proficiency and experience with hardware modeling for performance and/or power., • Strong communication skills, both written and spoken.At Mythic, we foster a collaborative and respectful environment where people can do their best work. We hire smart, capable individuals, provide the tools and support they need, and trust them to deliver. Our team brings a wide range of experiences and perspectives, which we see as a strength in solving hard problems together. We value professionalism, creativity, and integrity, and strive to make Mythic a place where every employee feels they belong and can contribute meaningfully.
