Are you an experienced Software Engineer with UAV/UAS expertise, looking for a role that allows you to take ownership of the software for a brand-new product?
We’re hiring for a global leader in autonomous systems and hybrid intelligence solutions for the security and defence space. Over the last 20 years, they have become a multinational organisation protecting millions of lives, critical infrastructure, and military and civil assets across the globe.
As part of their autonomous systems team, you’ll play a key role in designing and developing software for next-generation unmanned aerial systems (UAS), helping to solve complex security challenges in safety, defence, and beyond.
What You'll Do:
* Understand software requirements and turn them into functional designs.
* Develop system autonomy software using C++ or other programming languages.
* Test and review code across different projects to ensure quality.
* Find and fix issues in both new and existing code.
* Improve software development processes for autonomous systems.
* Work in a fast-paced, agile environment, rapidly developing and testing new UAV technologies with a ‘fly, fail, learn’ approach.
* Collaborate with AI/ML experts to build autonomous navigation, image processing, sensor fusion, and real-time decision-making features.
What You’ll Bring:
* Experience with Agile methodologies and tools like Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket (or similar).
* Proficient in C++ and Python.
* Experience with autopilot firmware (PX4 preferred, or ability to learn quickly if familiar with Ardupilot).
* Knowledge of ROS2.
* Experience developing Ground Control Software, with familiarity in open-source GCS (QGroundControl).
* Experience with simulation tools like Gazebo.
* Understanding of computer vision and machine learning (Desirable)
* Background in designing, developing, integrating, and testing autonomous systems (Desirable)
* Ability to solve complex problems and collaborate with both junior and senior developers.
* Organised and delivery-focused, able to work efficiently under tight deadlines to meet project milestones.
Benefits On Offer:
* Health and Wellbeing: Private healthcare for you and your family, sick pay, and life insurance.
* Financial Security: 6% pension contributions and travel costs covered.
* Work-Life Balance: 28 days holiday plus bank holidays, with remote working options available.
If you’re looking for an opportunity to work on a brand-new product where your software will directly enhance security, defence, and autonomous capabilities, I would love to hear from you!
