The company, which has a team of 2-10 employees, is currently hiring for three open positions. Cox Exponential has three distinct job openings, each offering a unique opportunity: * **[Reactor] Founding Engineer, ML Inference:** This on-site role in San Francisco requires a Founding Engineer with deep expertise in high-performance ML engineering. The engineer will focus on optimizing real-time generative media models, designing inference frameworks, and improving model performance. * **[Phenix Space] Founding Robotics Engineer:** This on-site position at Phenix Space seeks a Robotics Engineer to lead the development of their space robotic module. This role involves real-time control, perception, and decision-making for robotic operations in orbit. * **[Phenix Space] Founding Avionics Engineer:** Also on-site, this role is for an Avionics Engineer to lead the development of space-rated robotics hardware. This encompasses hardware design, embedded systems development, and real-time control for Phenix's robotic module. The roles require expertise in a diverse array of technologies: * **[Reactor] Founding Engineer, ML Inference:** This role requires skills in Systems Programming, ML Infrastructure, PyTorch, TensorRT, TransformerEngine, Nsight, ONNX Runtime, Model Compilation, Quantization, Serving Architectures, GPU Hardware, NVIDIA, Transformer Architectures, and ML Model Optimization. * **[Phenix Space] Founding Robotics Engineer:** The Robotics Engineer will work with Robotics Engineering, Computer Vision, Motion Planning, Autonomy, Real-Time Control, Anomaly Detection, Simulation, Testing, C++, Python, Kinematics, Control Theory, OpenCV, TensorFlow, Low-Level System Programming, and Digital Twins. * **[Phenix Space] Founding Avionics Engineer:** The Avionics Engineer will utilize Avionics Engineering, Embedded Systems, Robotics, Power Management, Sensor Fusion, Real-Time Control, Hardware Design, System Integration, PCB Design, Actuation Systems, Communication Protocols, Testing, Space Applications, Mechatronics, Electromechanical Systems, and Radiation Resistance. The [Reactor] Founding Engineer, ML Inference, and both Phenix Space positions are all on-site roles in San Francisco. Here are some frequently asked questions about the positions at Cox Exponential: 1. **What is the remote policy for the open positions?** All current openings are on-site positions. 2. **What are the required skills for the [Reactor] Founding Engineer, ML Inference role?** Required skills include a strong foundation in systems programming, deep expertise in the ML infrastructure stack (PyTorch, TensorRT, TransformerEngine, Nsight, ONNX Runtime), working knowledge of GPU hardware, and a strong understanding of transformer architectures and modern ML model optimization techniques. 3. **What does the [Phenix Space] Founding Robotics Engineer role entail?** The Robotics Engineer will focus on autonomous control & motion planning, computer vision & anomaly detection, and simulation & testing. 4. **What qualifications are necessary for the [Phenix Space] Founding Avionics Engineer role?** A Master’s or PhD in electrical engineering, mechatronics, aerospace engineering, or equivalent work experience, along with 3+ years of experience in space working with mechatronics, electrical engineering, or embedded systems development, is required. 5. **Does Cox Exponential offer visa sponsorship?** Yes, Cox Exponential sponsors visas and offers relocation support for the right candidates.
