Senior Edge Navigation Software Engineer

We are building a next-generation autonomous aerial platform, combining edge computing, real-time control, and advanced mission management across complex operational environments.

The  Senior Edge Navigation Software Engineer  will play a key role in designing and developing the platform's navigation and state estimation software—a core capability that enables the drone to accurately understand its position, orientation, and motion in complex and dynamic environments.

This role requires deep expertise in  navigation algorithms, sensor fusion, perception, and real-time software development , with the opportunity to influence the architecture and implementation of advanced navigation capabilities for autonomous UAVs.

• B.Sc. or higher in  Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, Robotics, Aerospace Engineering, or a related quantitative discipline.

• 5+ years of experience developing software for navigation, estimation, GNC, robotics, or autonomous systems.

• Strong background in sensor fusion and state estimation (Kalman Filters, EKF/UKF, factor graphs, or similar).

• Excellent C++ development skills (modern C++), with Python used for prototyping and analysis.

• Experience developing real-time software for embedded or edge computing platforms.

• Proven experience with autonomous systems (UAVs, drones, robotics platforms, autonomous vehicles, or similar).

• Strong understanding of IMU integration, coordinate frames, motion models, and inertial navigation.

• Experience designing complex software systems from concept through production deployment.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Experience

• Experience with Visual Navigation, Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO), SLAM, or Visual Localization.

• Experience integrating heterogeneous sensors such as radar, cameras, LiDAR, GNSS, and barometers.

• Familiarity with ROS, DDS, MAVLink, or similar robotics middleware.

• Experience deploying software on embedded or resource-constrained hardware.

• Experience with simulation environments for validation and testing.

• Familiarity with Linux development and multi-threaded programming.

• Experience optimizing software for real-time performance.
