This role blends software development, field deployment, and problem-solving to ensure our technology delivers real mission impact.
You will be deeply engaged in debugging and optimizing autonomy algorithms, refining system performance based on real-world data, and working closely with end-users to adapt our technology to mission needs. Whether troubleshooting networking issues, improving sensor integration, or refining control logic, you will play a critical role in making our systems more capable and reliable.
You will be the link between groundbreaking autonomy technology and real-world success. You will work on the front lines of maritime autonomy, ensuring our systems operate effectively in the environments where they matter most. You will impact mission success and shape the future of autonomous maritime operations.
Responsibilities
  • Develop and refine software for autonomy, networking, and mission execution, improving system performance in real-world maritime conditions

  • Analyze performance data from real-world missions, using insights to drive software improvements and optimize system behavior
  • Integrate and validate new autonomy features, ensuring seamless interaction between software, sensors, and vessel hardware
  • Work directly with operators and end-users, gathering feedback and adapting the system to operational requirements
  • Troubleshoot and resolve software, hardware, and networking issues that arise during deployments
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including autonomy engineers, hardware developers, and field operations personnel, to enhance product capabilities
  • Document best practices, deployment procedures, and debugging workflows to improve system reliability and scalability

Qualifications
  • Strong software engineering skills, with experience in C++, Rust, Python, or similar languages
  • Background in robotics, autonomy, or embedded systems, particularly in maritime, aerospace, or defense applications
  • Understanding of networking protocols and distributed systems, including TCP/IP, UDP, and message-passing frameworks
  • Experience working with sensors such as cameras, radar, GPS, and IMUs, especially in perception-driven autonomy applications
  • Ability to diagnose and debug complex systems, from low-level networking issues to high-level autonomy behaviors
  • Ability to work in dynamic environments, where software must adapt to real-world constraints and unpredictable conditions
  • Willingness to travel (up to 50%), spending time in the field testing and improving ASV systems in real-world maritime settings
  • Experience developing autonomy software for real-world robotic systems, particularly in challenging environments like the ocean
  • Familiarity with motion planning, behavior trees, and control algorithms for autonomous navigation
  • Background in maritime systems, naval operations, or defense technology
  • Knowledge of distributed autonomy architectures and multi-agent coordination
  • Hands-on experience integrating and deploying robotic systems in the field

Benefits
