We are seeking experienced Systems Software Engineers to develop software that powers autonomous maritime systems. This role sits at the intersection of software, hardware, robotics, and distributed systems, requiring engineers who are comfortable working across the full stack of autonomous vehicle development—from low-level hardware interfaces and embedded systems to backend services, infrastructure, and mission-critical applications
Design, develop, and maintain software for autonomous vehicle systems and supporting infrastructure
Build reliable, scalable, and maintainable software solutions across embedded, systems, and application layers
Develop software that interfaces with sensors, actuators, networking equipment, and onboard compute systems
Collaborate closely with electrical, mechanical, autonomy, perception, and field engineering teams
Optimize software performance, reliability, observability, and fault tolerance in mission-critical environments
Design and implement distributed services, communication frameworks, and data pipelines supporting autonomous operations
Participate in architecture discussions and technical decision-making across software and systems domains
Support testing, validation, deployment, and troubleshooting of software in both laboratory and field environments
Contribute to the continuous improvement of engineering processes, tooling, and development practices
Preferred experience
The ideal candidate brings strong software engineering fundamentals and has experience developing systems that interact with real-world hardware, robotics platforms, autonomous systems, or other complex cyber-physical environments
Experience working on complex distributed, real-time, embedded, robotics, autonomy, aerospace, defense, maritime, automotive, industrial automation, or similar systems
Python
Strong proficiency in one or more of:
Experience developing software for systems that interact with physical hardware
Strong understanding of Linux-based development environments
5+ years of professional software engineering experience
Experience with software architecture, debugging, testing, and performance optimization
Ability to operate effectively in cross-functional engineering environments
C++
Go
Rust
Experience with embedded Linux, RTOS, device drivers, or hardware communication protocols
Experience with robotics, autonomous systems, UAVs, UGVs, USVs, or maritime platforms
