Robotics Software Engineer (m/f/d) – UAV Autonomy.

What we offer

• Work in an international, agile team creating the future of autonomous systems
• Grow your career in a expanding and ambitious engineering team
• Build innovative products using state-of-the-art technologies in AI, robotics, and autonomy 
• Benefit from a steep learning curve and continuous development
• Enjoy team events and a strong, collaborative culture

Your mission

• Design, build, and maintain core robotics software for autonomous UAV systems, from middleware to hardware bring-up
• Develop and maintain production-grade ROS 2 nodes, interfaces, and middleware using C++
• Integrate cameras, IMUs, GNSS, and vehicle systems into our autonomy stack
• Collaborate on the integration of core robotics software across sensing, navigation, and vehicle interfaces
• Deploy, package, and maintain software on NVIDIA Jetson and embedded Linux platforms
• Debug and optimize robotics software running on real UAV hardware
• Support flight tests through pre-flight preparation, on-site debugging, log analysis, and post-flight fixes
• Work closely with autonomy, perception, and platform engineers to deliver reliable end-to-end system integration
• Contribute to improving software reliability, deployment workflows, and maintainability across the robotics stack

Your profile

• 3–6+ years of professional experience developing robotics or embedded software (strong senior candidates are encouraged to apply regardless of exact years)
• Strong professional experience developing with C++ (this is a C++-first role; Python-only backgrounds are not a fit)
• Experience with ROS 2, or comparable robotics/real-time middleware, deployed on real hardware
• Solid experience debugging software on Linux and embedded Linux systems
• Hands-on experience integrating sensors and robotic platforms
• Experience deploying production software onto embedded or robotic systems rather than simulation-only environments
• Experience using Git and collaborative software development workflows
• Willingness to support flight test campaigns in the field

Nice to have

• Experience with NVIDIA Jetson platforms
• Experience integrating PX4, ArduPilot, MAVLink, or other flight control systems
• Experience with camera calibration, sensor synchronization, or video pipelines
• Experience with software packaging and deployment (Docker, Snap, OTA, Nix)
• Familiarity with UAVs, autonomous vehicles, or robotics perception systems

What else

• Outside-the-box creativity with a blend of conceptual and systematic design thinking.
• High intrinsic motivation, attention to detail, and strong problem-solving mindset.
• Structured, methodical, and reliable execution, even under uncertainty.
• Humble, collaborative, and mission-driven — values collective success over ego.
• High ethical standards and disciplined work ethic.
• Extra-curricular achievements, leadership, or unique projects are a plus.
• NATO-aligned nationality or close ally citizenship is required.
