SPAN builds hardware products that accelerate the adoption renewable energy in the home! We manufacture and sell the SPAN Smart Panel, an electric panel that performs software-based load management and monitoring for homes with solar, battery storage, and big appliances like EV chargers.
The Device Platform team is a 6-person team maintaining the Yocto-based embedded Linux platform underpinning SPAN’s hardware products.
We're hiring a Rust-focused systems software engineer to work on our application platform.
In the next year, you may:
- Build out our cross-platform application development SDK written in Rust, and supporting others developing new product offerings.
- Co-design new APIs with our cloud team (MQTT, HTTP, and gRPC).
- Collaborate with specialists in data science and power electronics to support simulation testing of power control behaviors in our application stack.
- Overhaul our on-device telemetry, alerting, and fault reporting for our growing customer base.

Indeed, carrier phase and multi-frequency+constellation measurements are drifting into consumer hardware, but I can say that it's probably going to be a Good Long While before we full realize its benefits. The use of cell phones (and cheap cell phone antennas) is an active area of research, particularly for organizations aiming to make high-accuracy GNSS positioning widely accessible outside of specialty markets (i.e., agriculture and surveying). It's an interesting area to be in for sure:
The base station network density question @ac29 points out later is a compelling reason for some of this.
(Shill: We're hiring for firmware engineers right now, focused on a variety of different areas: embedded Linux, DSP basebands (C), and navigation algorithms (C++) design and implementation. See https://jobs.lever.co/swift-nav for more details or email jobs@swiftnav.com.)
