About Neuron Industries

Cortex AIC is the AI-native industrial controller that works in place of the PLC. Describe control logic in plain English, deploy deterministic real-time Python, and get the IDE, HMI, historian, and data streaming built in. Zero runtime licenses. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

You’ll build the low-level software that makes Cortex a dependable industrial controller. Your work will span the controller runtime, embedded Linux services, and interfaces to physical hardware. You’ll turn application intent into working machine behavior and own the implementation, integration, testing, and debugging that gets it into customers’ hands. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Develop low-level software for the Cortex runtime and the services that execute controller applications
  • Integrate industrial I/O, peripherals, and device communication with electrical and controls engineers
  • Build embedded Linux services and reliable interfaces between applications, the runtime, and hardware
  • Debug issues across software and hardware using traces, profiling, logs, and bench measurements
  • Improve latency, resource use, concurrency, and recovery behavior through measurement and targeted changes
  • Validate functionality and failure handling with automated tests, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and reproducible fault cases
More about this role

America deserves abundance.

Neuron Industries is rebuilding industrial automation from the hardware up. We’re building Cortex AIC, an AI-native industrial controller, and Synapse, the development environment engineers use to program, test, deploy, and debug it.

We build the hardware and software together. Our work makes industrial systems easier to develop and dependable on the factory floor.

Come help us build the next generation of American manufacturing.

You’ll build the low-level software that makes Cortex a dependable industrial controller. Your work will span the controller runtime, embedded Linux services, and interfaces to physical hardware. You’ll turn application intent into working machine behavior and own the implementation, integration, testing, and debugging that gets it into customers’ hands.

You’ll work directly with the founders, electrical engineers, and application team. This role requires strong programming and computer fundamentals: understanding how memory, concurrency, operating systems, communication, and timing affect a real system, then using that understanding to build and debug it.
