Founded by NASA, Google, Sidewalk Labs, Waymo, and Cruise experts, Thalo is a tech-enabled services company transforming the HVAC industry with next-generation sensing and AI-powered intelligence. Heat pump and other HVAC failures cost billions in emergency repairs and wasted energy annually, and are managed by an increasingly short-handed labor pool. Thalo is building an AI-powered platform transforming static assets into self-monitoring, high-performance systems, empowering technicians to shift from reactive fixes to proactive service.

Our team has built self-driving cars at Waymo, worked on satellite imagery at Google, designed systems for John Deere, developed space missions for NASA, led manufacturing design for Boom Supersonic jets, and more. We are united by our shared goal of making products that help us decarbonize today and accelerate drawdown globally at the intersection of cutting edge, robotics-inspired hardware and the built environment.

Our ideal candidate is excited to operate at both the leadership and tactical levels, jumping between hands-on engineering work and higher level strategy work. This role will be responsible for leading our software engineering team and improving the experience of Thalo products by defining and driving the software engineering roadmap, integrating ML models into our platform, mentoring existing team members, and partnering closely with our CEO to iterate on our product vision. If you’ve led software engineering teams with a hands-on approach at a startup, we’d love to talk!
