Zipline | South San Francisco, US | Remote ok (with travel) | Full Time | Embedded Systems | Robot Perception
Zipline uses drones to deliver critical and lifesaving medicine to thousands of hospitals serving millions of people in multiple countries. Our mission is to provide every human on Earth with instant access to vital medical supplies. Join Zipline and help us make this a reality for billions of people.
We're hiring an embedded systems specialist to help us build perception systems for our aircraft. You'll build high-performance, real-time, safety-critical embedded software systems from kernel drivers to neural networks. We write Rust and C++ on embedded Linux, and we work with hardware from i2c to GPUs. We train networks and analyze data with industry-standard Python tools.
> While that could mean just about anything, nearly everyone who writes a half-decent hand-written parser, whether they know it or not, is writing a recursive descent parser [1].

Which, while I haven't thought about it deeply, intuitively makes some sense: parser combinators encourage an approach mostly equivalent to little functions that do something like "parse a $thing, or parse a $different_thing" (etc.) which very much translates down like a recursive descent parser.
