Senior IoT Engineer

Omnisent is pioneering scalable acoustic sensing powered by AI — transforming audio into real-time intelligence.

We build hardware + software tailored for acoustic data, designed to extract insights from complex acoustic signals. Our proprietary ultra-low-power sonic devices capture and process acoustic signals in real-time, training what we call a Large Acoustic Model (LAM) — our foundation model built to decode the rich, messy, and untapped world of non-speech audio.

We’re starting with the manufacturing industry, applying our tech to compressed air systems — one of the most overlooked sources of energy waste. From there, we’re expanding into energy, defense, space, and smart cities — sectors where sound is the next frontier.

IoT Devices & Edge Computing:

• Implement edge computing solutions for real-time data processing and transmission
• Connect and manage embedded IoT devices and gateways
