GPS Denied Navigation for Drones. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
We are looking for robotics engineers with SLAM, VIO, localization, or state estimation experience. You will work on the estimator itself, meaning the visual-inertial odometry, the map matching, and the sensor fusion that turn camera frames and IMU samples into a position the flight controller can trust. Most of what you work on will come from feedback from real deployments, and your changes will ship to devices in the field every week.
What they're looking for
- 3+ years of experience (Mid level) or 5+ years of experience (Senior) building and deploying state estimation, SLAM, or visual-inertial odometry systems that shipped in a product or were validated in field testing
- A working grasp of the geometry underneath visual localization: camera models including fisheye and thermal, calibration, epipolar geometry, feature tracking, and bundle adjustment
More about this role
Theseus is an American defense company with a mission is to make precise positioning universal. We have customers in every branch of the USDOD, major defense primes, and our product is actively used in combat. We build Cyclops, visual localization software that replaces GPS on all drones. Cyclops runs on the device and enables precision autonomy, without relying on GPS.
This is our second product, built using feedback from our first product which did the same thing but worse. This year, we expect to sell > 10,000 licenses. After two years, we have the best product available on the market, and demand is very high.

We hope you will grow to lead much of the localization work we do, and help us build a universal alternative to GPS across ground, air,...
