Role overview
Lunavii is the missing Link before smartphones. We’re building a screen-free GPS+biosensor bracelet for young kids, creating a new category of always connected devices for the pre-phone years.
It combines real-time safety with a Guardian character-led software layer that drives emotional engagement and consistent where, solving the core adoption problem that is limited this category.
Patents pending.
What you will do
- Architect and scale a robust cloud backend for device telemetry ingestion, real-time data processing, and secure API infrastructure for family-facing applications.
- Develop sophisticated AI systems, including LLM pipelines and agentic workflows, to power character logic and personalized child-facing engagement layers.
- Lead the software engineering strategy for parent mobile apps, ensuring seamless GPS location tracking, caregiving coordination, and real-time safety alerts.
Who this is a fit for
- Proven depth in backend and AI systems, with specific experience building production-grade LLM pipelines, RAG systems, or complex agentic workflows at scale.
- Strong full-stack fluency across cloud infrastructure and mobile development with a background in leading technical strategy at an early-stage company.
- Product-minded leader who thrives in ambiguity and understands how to translate emotional design and narrative storytelling into highly technical, scalable software architectures.
Why this role is remarkable
- Join a mission-driven startup at the ground floor with the unique challenge of blending consumer hardware, generative AI, and emotional design.
- Work on a category-defining product that uses AI-powered “Guardian” characters and adaptive storytelling to transform child safety into an engaging adventure for young children.
- Directly influence the technical trajectory of a patent-pending platform, inheriting a solid hardware foundation while building the entire software and AI intelligence layer from scratch.
