Your mission

Build real autonomous systems that operate in the real world, not in the lab. 

Mission 

Join our engineering team and help build the core autonomy that powers our next generation robotic systems used for defense and mission-critical operations. You will design, implement, and harden robotic software that must perform under real operational conditions : outdoors, under uncertainty, with real consequences. Your work will directly shape the reliability, safety, and tactical capability of the systems we deliver.   

What You Will Do 

You will contribute to the development and integration of core robotic capabilities, including: 
  • Designing and implementing robust, real-time robotics software components
  • Working with multi-modal sensor data, ensuring timing, synchronization, and frame correctness 
  • Developing and improving algorithms in areas such as estimation, perception, planning, control, or integration 
  • Ensuring deterministic behavior, reliability, and system-level stability 
  • Debugging and validating robotic systems during field tests, under real-world constraints 
  • Collaborating with a cross-functional team of robotics, embedded, and domain experts 
  • Maintaining high engineering standards: code reviews, CI, reproducible builds, documentation 
You will execute on real hardware and iterate based on operational performance, field results are the final metric. 

Your profile

Must-Have Skills

Technical Fundamentals :
  • Strong proficiency in modern C++ (17/20) 
  • Solid foundation in algorithms, data structures, and numerical methods 
  • Experience developing software that runs on real robots, embedded systems, or hardware-in-the-loop setups 
  • Comfortable working with raw sensor data (timing, noise characteristics, transforms, calibration) 
  • Strong debugging skills: runtime issues, latency, performance bottlenecks, integration failures 
  • Ability to architect clean, modular, maintainable software systems 

Robotics Foundation :

  • Understanding of at least one robotics domain: state estimation, perception, tracking, planning, control, sensor fusion, or integration 
  • Ability to reason about real-time behavior, latency budgets, and reliability requirements 
  • End-to-end thinking: understanding how individual modules affect the whole system 

Mindset & Attitude :

Builder mentality : you ship working solutions, not theoretical concepts  Hands-on ownership : you proactively solve problems, even outside your direct scope  Field-driven mindset : you care about what survives real operations, not "lab perfect"  High quality bar : you aim for reliability, determinism, and clarity in your engineering  Startup drive : you execute fast despite ambiguity, and adapt quickly  Mission alignment : genuine motivation to work on defense-relevant, safety-critical robotics   

Nice-to-Have 

These are beneficial but not mandatory for initial success:
  • Python for tooling or prototyping 
  • Experience with robotics middleware or real-time systems 
  • Background in optimization, filtering, or physical modeling 
  • Experience with embedded platforms, GPUs, or simulation tools 
  • We hire for core engineering ability, everything else can be learned here.
