Mine Vision Systems is a mining technology company building the decision-making platform for underground mining. We introduce high-fidelity data into the mining workflow that has simply never existed before enabling operators to move from assumptions to evidence-based decisions. Our digital infrastructure is designed to map monitor and manage the underground mining environment with confidence creating a persistent data-rich foundation for operational and strategic decision-making. Since the launch of our flagship product FaceCapture in late 2023 adoption has accelerated rapidly as customers realize the value of truly understanding their underground operations.
We focus on underground mining of critical minerals and precious metals where small improvements in accuracy and insight drive outsized returns. Our technology delivers millions of dollars in annual value by minimizing overbreak improving ore calls enhancing resource models and enabling a growing set of high-impact applications across the mine lifecycle. By transforming raw underground data into actionable intelligence Mine Vision Systems empowers mining teams to operate more efficiently more predictably and with greater confidence than ever before.
About the role
Were looking for an Embedded Software Engineer to design build and scale the embedded computing platforms that power our perception and automation systems deployed in harsh underground mine environments. You will work across embedded Linux realtime firmware and hardwaresoftware integration collaborating closely with electrical mechanical robotics and product engineers.
This role combines deep technical ownership with realworld impact : the systems you build will operate daily in production mines around the world.
What youll do
- Design implement test and maintain embedded Linux systems on NVIDIA Jetson and other ARMbased SoCs
- Develop and maintain microcontroller firmware for sensors actuators and robotic peripheral devices
- Own board bringup activities including bootloaders device trees pinmux and peripheral configuration
- Design and implement robust hardware communication interfaces (I²C SPI UART USB CAN Ethernet PCIe)
- Collaborate with electrical and mechanical engineers on hardware selection system architecture and validation
- Evaluate and select MCUs SoCs and supporting components for new product designs
- Debug complex systemlevel issues spanning hardware kernel drivers and application layers
- Establish test validation and reliability practices appropriate for harsh vibration and dustheavy mine environments
- Contribute to software architecture code reviews documentation and longterm platform strategy
- Support limited field deployments and diagnostics to inform product improvements
