TL;DR · Senior Robotics Software Engineer

As a Senior Robotics Software Engineer, Sentry Tower, you will join the Sentry Tower Software team to develop robotic systems providing force protection by monitoring perimeters for approaching people, vehicles, and vessels. You will be responsible for building and maintaining software for current and next-generation systems, including feature development like SITL/HITL, integrating sensors such as cameras, GPS, and ADSB, and creating APIs for robotic arm movements. The role involves designing software for human and autonomous planning agents while architecting custom real-time communication and middleware systems. You will utilize Rust or C++, along with networking protocols like CAN and Ethernet, to manage high-volume data processing and sensor analysis. Essential skills include proficiency in hardware interfacing, Nix or CMake build systems, CI/CD pipelines, and experience with tools like Wireshark and CANoe for secure data transmission.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain software for current and next-generation Sentry Tower robotic systems.
  • Own feature development including SITL/HITL, security requirements, and sensor integration like GPS and ADSB.
  • Design and implement software to support both human and autonomous planning agents.
  • Architect and scale custom real-time communication and middleware systems.
  • Develop APIs for actuating robotic arm movements and refining build systems.
  • Ensure service reliability and alignment with customer objectives through proactive ownership.
  • Submit well-documented, tested pull requests while negotiating technical system design trade-offs.

What we're looking for

  • Proficiency navigating the robotics system stack or deep expertise in low-level software and hardware interfacing.
  • 4+ years of experience working with Rust or C++.
  • Expertise in networking principles (CAN/Ethernet), hardware interfacing, diagnostic tools, and cybersecurity for sensor data transmission.
  • Experience designing and building software solutions for high-volume data processing and sophisticated sensor data analysis.
  • Strong engineering background in fields such as Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, or Physics.
  • Experience with modern build systems like Nix or CMake and setting up CI/CD pipelines.
  • US person status required with eligibility to obtain and maintain a US security clearance.
  • Experience with Python, Go, controls (trajectory planning, inverse kinematics), sensor fusion, or real-time embedded systems (preferred).
