Terra Nova•Berkeley

Company Description Backed by leading climate and American dynamism investors, Terranova builds intelligent robotic systems to terraform the Earth itself - lifting land, restoring wetlands, and protecting critical infrastructure from floods and sea-level rise. Our mission is to preserve the built environment, create new habitats, and usher in an era of abundance. Our work supports climate resilience, disaster recovery, and defense across the United States and beyond. We’re assembling a world-class team that wants to work on something real, physical, and civilization-scale. If you want your work to reshape the world (literally), this is the place to do it. What to Expect We are looking for a hands-on engineer who can take embedded ideas from schematic to prototype to production. You'll work on low-level firmware for microcontrollers, efficient peripheral interfacing, power-aware circuit design, radio frequency communication, and the software stack and autopilot system that ties it all together; bridging code and hardware to make our systems come alive in the field. Key Responsibilities * Develop and debug embedded firmware in C/C++ with FreeRTOS for STM32 or similar ARM Cortex-M systems. * Design and review multilayer mixed-signal schematics / PCBs in Altium Designer. * Integrate sensors, radios, and power electronics with reliable, low-latency interfaces (I²C, SPI, UART, CAN, SDIO). * Design and integrate long-range low-power wireless systems (XBee, LoRa) into deployed platforms. * Build and maintain Yocto Linux images for embedded gateways and edge compute systems. * Contribute to backend services and tooling in Go and TypeScript, including SQL data layers and Vue/React frontends. * Deploy and operate cloud infrastructure on Google Cloud and Cloudflare's serverless platform. * Characterize and optimize power budgets, EMI performance, and manufacturability. * Bring-up, test, and validate hardware prototypes through DFM/DFT cycles. * Support system integration and field debugging of deployed robotic platforms. * Thrive at the pace and intensity of early-stage startup life, including long days, 6-day workweeks, and extended field hours. Requirements * Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering or a related field. * U.S. permanent residency. Preferred Skills & Experience * Multilayer mixed-signal PCB design in KiCad or Altium * ARM microcontroller firmware (STM32/ESP32/RP2040) in C/C++ with FreeRTOS or Zephyr * RF and long-range low-power wireless systems (XBee, LoRa) * Yocto or OpenEmbedded Linux build systems * Go and TypeScript application development * SQL and relational data modeling * Vue and/or React frontend development * Google Cloud and Cloudflare serverless (Workers, Durable Objects, R2) * Working knowledge of internet fundamentals, including DNS * SWD/JTAG, logic analyzers (e.g., Saleae), and oscilloscopes * OTA update systems and bootloaders * DMA-backed peripheral drivers * DFM/DFT methodologies Ideal Archetype * Has worked on and owned entire large, complex robotic systems: multiple sensors, motors, interfaces, and solid PCB design. * Has a maker background: loves building things and finds the work genuinely fun.
