The posting

About SewerAI Corporation

SewerAI is transforming underground infrastructure management through AI-powered inspection and risk analysis. Our platform helps contractors, engineering firms, and utilities unlock valuable insights from sewer inspection data—turning hours of manual video review into actionable intelligence in minutes. After doubling our customer base over the past year, we’re now entering an exciting phase of accelerated growth.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to develop Pioneer Desktop alongside the Truck team lead. It's an Electron app: our React web app, Pioneer, runs inside a desktop shell that talks to the truck's hardware. The operator drives the camera, records video, reads distance and incline from the crawler controller, codes defects to NASSCO standards, and syncs the inspection to the cloud once the truck has signal.

Trucks are a hard place to run software. They run on hardware we don't choose, from many manufacturers, often with no internet connection. The operator isn't a software person and has a crew waiting. If a recording fails, someone drives back to the manhole.

Working with the Truck team lead, you'll contribute across the desktop runtime: hardware integrations, video recording, offline storage, sync, crash diagnostics, and the release pipeline that gets software updates onto trucks safely.

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

Working alongside the Truck team lead, you'll:

- Connect Pioneer Desktop to inspection cameras, truck equipment and sensors

- Make video recording reliable and inspection data safe, even without internet access

- Improve cloud sync, app stability and software updates for trucks in the field

- Work with Product, Design and the web team to make operators' workflows simpler

- Help resolve customer issues and visit trucks and hardware vendors to understand how the software is used

WHO YOU ARE

- You have 5+ years building production software, including real time on desktop or hardware-connected applications.

- You've shipped a desktop app (Electron, Tauri, Qt, WPF or native Windows) to users you can't SSH into. Auto-update, code signing and crash reporting are familiar ground.

- Your TypeScript is strong, and you understand the Electron process model: main, renderer, preload and utility processes, and what belongs in each.

- You've talked to hardware: serial protocols, byte framing, checksums, flaky USB and drivers that behave differently on every machine.

- You can debug on Windows. You know your way around file locks, path and locale quirks, Event Viewer, Process Monitor and PowerShell.

- You design for failure. You assume the disk fills up, the network drops, and Windows kills the process halfway through a write.

- You can take a log from a customer you'll never meet and work out what happened.

- You have strong product fundamentals: you understand user needs, weigh tradeoffs, and focus on solving the right problem for operators.

- You explain technical problems in plain language to operators and field supervisors, and you listen when they describe a bug in their own words.

- You follow through. When a truck in another state can't record, you work with the Truck team lead and your teammates to investigate the issue and see the fix through.

- You use AI coding tools every day to optimize your workflow.

TECHNICAL SKILLS

- TypeScript

- Node.js

- Electron

- React

- Browser media APIs

- ffmpeg

- Understanding of serial communication

- Database fundamentals

- Windows internals and PowerShell

- Desktop app testing (Playwright for Electron, Vitest)

- AWS

- CI/CD (GitHub Actions)

NICE TO HAVE

- C#/.NET, DirectShow or Media Foundation

- Rust and WebAssembly

- Crash analysis: minidumps, Crashpad or Breakpad, symbol servers

- Windows installers and fleet management: WiX/MSI, Squirrel, Intune, SCCM

- Code signing: Authenticode, EV certificates, cloud KMS

- Video capture and encoding: H.264, capture cards, RTSP

- GPS, NMEA and geospatial data

- NASSCO standards (PACP/MACP/LACP) and sewer inspection data

- CCTV inspection trucks, crawler controllers or other industrial hardware

- Municipal utility, contractor or infrastructure customers

WHAT YOU'LL GAIN

- The chance to help build a product that crews depend on every working day, working alongside the Truck team lead

- Work that spans bytes on a serial wire, video pipelines, Windows installers and React UI

- A short path from code to impact: you'll hear from the operators who use your release

- Growth in a fast-moving company where you'll write processes as well as code

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

- Base salary: $150,000–$205,000, plus equity

- Medical, dental, vision, basic life and 401(k)

- Unlimited PTO

This role requires about 5-10% travel for truck visits, customer go-lives and team offsites.

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.
