The posting

About Plix Plix is a seed-stage startup with Stanford roots, supported by Samsara, Verkada, and Sequoia Capital. We are building the world’s first AI body cameras to provide real-time situational alerts to improve safety, security, and operational efficiency.

Position Overview We’re looking for an engineering intern to help build a next-generation battery-powered rapid response camera, leveraging our existing body camera prototype. This role is ideal for someone with experience working on embedded Android systems and a deep understanding of optimizing computer vision applications for constrained environments (like battery and thermal limits). You’ll be working closely with the founding team to design and deploy a field-ready product. Start date is flexible.

Responsibilities Build and iterate on embedded Android software for a battery-operated body camera system Optimize vision models and pipeline runtime performance to extend battery life Profile and manage power consumption across compute, sensor, and wireless subsystems Integrate computer vision models for motion detection, real-time alerting, or object recognition Debug and improve system stability, telemetry, and update processes for edge devices Collaborate with the founding team to define hardware/software tradeoffs and product direction

Requirements Experience developing for embedded Android systems (AOSP, HAL, low-level services) Strong understanding of power management and performance optimization in constrained devices Familiarity with battery profiling tools and techniques for Android or Linux-based devices Proficient in C++, Python, and/or Java/Kotlin Hands-on experience with deploying computer vision pipelines Able to work independently and iterate quickly in a startup environment

Preferred Qualifications Familiarity with hardware bring-up, firmware, and interfacing with camera sensors and radios (e.g., LTE, Wi-Fi) Experience working with real-time alerting systems or low-latency media pipelines Previous work on robotics, drones, IoT, or camera-enabled hardware products Comfort working with Docker, GitHub Actions, or CI/CD for embedded systems Prior startup or early-stage prototyping experience

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
