Job Description

About Knightscope

Knightscope (NASDAQ: KSCP) is a security technology company building the nation's first Autonomous Security Force: autonomous machines, AI-driven software, and elite security professionals operating as one integrated managed service. The Company is on a mission to make the United States of America the safest country in the world. One Team. One Force.

Job Summary

You will own the shared fleet and release automation function that Knightscope's device products (K5, K7, H1, K1H, ECD, and eventually Signals) all depend on. This is the earliest hire in the new centralized Engineering Services function because it is the highest-leverage: it unblocks the K7 beta prototype and the entire device rollout sequence.

Location: ONSITE - Sunnyvale, CA

About the Role

Key Responsibilities

Design, build, and operate the shared OTA and release pipeline across device products.

Partner with Signals firmware engineers on unified OTA delivery.

Establish release SLOs, rollback discipline, and an on-call rotation for fleet releases.

Partner with DevOps and Platform to connect cloud pipelines to on-device delivery.

Contribute to cross-product release standards through the Center of Engineering Excellence.

Required Qualifications

7+ years in embedded fleet operations or release engineering.

Hands-on OTA update system design and operation.

Strong experience with device fleets at scale.

Release automation patterns (canary, staged, ring-based).

Infrastructure-as-code fluency.

Nice to Have

Robotics, security devices, or connected IoT products.

Prior work standardizing release across multiple product lines.

Regulated environment (safety-critical, security-critical) release experience.

Compensation and Benefits

Base Salary: $165,000 to $195,000 (DOE)

Equity: Stock options

Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), paid time off

Location Requirement: Full-time, on-site at Sunnyvale HQ
