Software Engineer, Perception (SLAM / VIO)

About Rivet

Rivet is an American company building integrated task systems - fusing hardened hardware with software, sensors, AI, and networking - for industrial workforces and defense personnel. We create capabilities that multiply the effectiveness of every individual and withstand the world's toughest environments.

We serve the people who build, operate, maintain, and defend our way of life. From technicians and engineers to first responders and service members, they embody the hard work, ingenuity, and meritocratic values that drive Western prosperity. Yet too often they are forced to rely on outdated tools that fail under modern pressures. Rivet exists to reset that priority.

At Rivet, you'll join a mission-driven team that fuses disciplines to deliver decisive outcomes where they matter most. Whether shaping our technology, strengthening our partnerships, or building our culture, every role here contributes to equipping the front lines with the modern systems they deserve.

Who Thrives Here

• People with a deep disdain for bureaucracy, empire building, groupthink, dogma, corporate babble, and wasted time
• Teammates who want to work exclusively alongside others at the top of their field
• Experienced, no-nonsense professionals who are execution-focused and deliver high-quality solutions above all else

Role Description

We are building the perception stack that enables robust three / six degrees of freedom tracking, localization and mapping in complex real-world environments. This role focuses on fusing data from cameras and inertial sensors to power SLAM / Visual-Inertial Odometry pipelines. We need somebody that can create algorithms and systems that run in real time, handle uncertainty gracefully and provide the foundation for advanced spatial intelligence on edge devices.
