Company
Founded in Berlin, autarc is a ~40 person start-up who were part of Y Combinator's S24 batch in San Francisco. Our team consists of people in Sales, Tech and Operations, with the Engineering & Product department currently ~20 people, as we continue to grow throughout the year.
Role description
This role is to join our AI team, where you will own and expand the native iOS layer of our product. Our LiDAR-based room and floor scan is already live and in the hands of thousands of installers. We train custom AI models and connect them directly with LiDAR data — something no one in the industry has done before.
Your first priority is to take the scan to the next level: more accurate, more reliable, more robust. That means new capabilities like mesh scanning, quality KPIs you define and track yourself, and fast fixes when something breaks in the field. Beyond that, this role is wide open. We're looking for a product-driven iOS engineer who talks to users, identifies where native capabilities create real value, and ships independently.
Other responsibilities include:
- Own the LiDAR scanning experience end-to-end (ARKit, RealityKit, RoomPlan)
- Build Object Capture workflows, PencilKit annotation, on-device OCR (Vision), voice-to-text (Speech/AVFoundation), and Core Haptics feedback
- Integrate scan outputs with custom-trained AI models via Core ML alongside the ML Engineer
- Bridge native iOS features into our web app
- Shape the native iOS product roadmap – bring your own ideas, don't wait for a spec
About us
Right now, 25% of CO2 emissions in Europe are caused by heating our buildings. In order for this to be reduced, the transition towards renewable energy needs to be simplified and made more accessible. There are too few installers to meet the growing demand for heat pumps, and a solution to match this trend needs to be brought to the market.
autarc is developing the leading operating system (OS) for heat pump installers, enabling a more digital and efficient installation process for heat pumps.
Through this, autarc is reducing the hurdles to decarbonizing single-family homes and small apartment buildings in Europe, with the goal to help with the planning and designing of 1 million heat pumps by 2030.
