Arondite is a defence technology company building the foundational software and AI to power the autonomous age. Our aim is to revolutionise the way organisations collaborate with robots, sensors and autonomous systems and use the data they generate. We are driven by our determination to help defend our collective democratic values and by our strong belief that an elite group of engineers can make a big difference. We are ambitious, well-funded and building for the long-term.
You will join Arondite at a pivotal moment in the company’s journey. Our company is being built by exceptional engineers - people who find high-impact and technically challenging work engaging and exciting, and who consistently deliver outsized impact. You will collaborate with other brilliant minds to solve some of the world’s hardest and most important problems.
You will have ownership and autonomy from Day One. There is no corporate ladder at Arondite. From your first day, you will directly influence the design, functionality, and direction of Arondite’s product offering. We hire the best people and give them extremely high levels of autonomy; the sky is the limit for an individual with the right ambition.
If you are motivated by our mission and if you want to be part of a growing team of outstanding people, then we want to hear from you.
We work closely alongside our customers to deploy our technology. As a Deployed Software Engineer at Arondite, you will be responsible for implementing our technology with customers so that it effectively solves their real-world problems. You will collect feedback from end users and work with the wider engineering team to contribute back to the development of core product features.
As we expand into Canada, this role is intended to help build Arondite’s deployed capability in a market where trusted relationships, local context and close collaboration with defence stakeholders matter. Ottawa is the proposed base for this effort because of its proximity to the Department of National Defence (DND), Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC), federal partners and the wider public-sector ecosystem.
You will often need to travel to customer locations in Canada and, at times, internationally. These may include offices, test facilities, ranges, exercise environments and operationally relevant field locations. Once there, you will need to understand unfamiliar systems, engage directly with users and deploy Arondite’s products by writing code that solves real use cases.
This is an opportunity to embed deeply with customers, work at the intersection of engineering and real-world operations, and help shape the direction of our platform based on how it performs in demanding environments. You should be comfortable working independently, handling ambiguity and representing Arondite credibly with technical and non-technical stakeholders alike.
Requirements
We know the ideal candidate may not match every line item exactly. If this role is close to your experience and you are motivated by the mission, we would still like to hear from you.
This is not an additional list of requirements; this reflects the kinds of technologies, environments and contexts that may be especially helpful in this role.
We require that all candidates have an existing Right to Work in Canada at the time of application.
We believe in working closely with defence customers. As a result, this role is likely to require you to hold a clearance or be willing to undergo Canadian security screening. This normally requires having continuous residency in Canada for at least 5 years for Reliability Status, and 10 years for Secret.
We are focused on building a positive, collaborative engineering-driven culture. We therefore believe in making the office a friendly, comfortable and fun place to be, and we try to work from the office where possible. Of course, there are times when it makes sense for you to work from home and that is OK. You may also need to travel to visit customers, depending on your role. But in general you should only apply to join Arondite if you are excited to come into the office and work in person by default.
For this role, Ottawa is the intended base given the importance of being close to Canadian defence and federal stakeholders, while also being available for regular travel to customer sites as needed.

You will be one of our early team in Canada and we are still finalising our benefits package. However, as a guide, we currently intend to progressively offer the benefits below:
