Responsibilities

  • Analyze real-world sensor data to evaluate and improve system performance
  • Design experiments, define meaningful performance metrics, and interpret results
  • Develop and maintain production-quality C++ software
  • Prototype and evaluate new algorithms using Python or similar analytical tools
  • Transition successful prototypes into scalable production software
  • Contribute to visualization, testing, and data-processing frameworks
  • Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to improve system capabilities
  • Support software validation activities in both laboratory and operational environments

Desired Qualifications

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or related technical discipline
  • Experience developing software in C++
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Experience using Python for data analysis, prototyping, or visualization
  • Familiarity with real-time systems, estimation techniques, or data-driven algorithm development
  • Understanding of object-oriented software design principles
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Experience

  • Digital signal processing or time-series data analysis
  • Sensor fusion, tracking, estimation, or control systems
  • Robotics, autonomous systems, or intelligent sensing technologies
  • Experience working with large-scale data sets or point-cloud style data
  • Modern software development and testing practices

Why Consider This Role?

  • Work on highly technical products solving meaningful real-world problems
  • Collaborate with experienced engineers across software, hardware, and data disciplines
  • High visibility and ownership within a growing organization
  • Opportunity to influence future product direction and technical innovation
  • Competitive compensation, equity participation, and long-term growth potential

Please note: Due to the nature of certain customer environments, candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future.
