Job Description:

This role sits within the Edge Systems team, where software meets hardware. You will contribute to production software spanning Linux edge computing, imaging, sensor integration, diagnostics, deployment, and mission applications. Your work will run on real systems, not only in simulations or laboratory prototypes. 

You will develop modern C++ software for Linux-based edge compute platforms, including NVIDIA Jetson-class and ARM64 systems. You will integrate sensors, diagnose system behaviour, improve performance, and deliver reliable software as part of a multidisciplinary team, with scope and autonomy matched to your experience. 

This is an application and systems software role focused on Linux-based edge computing. It is not primarily a bare-metal firmware or microcontroller-development role. 

Linux is the primary deployment environment, but some supporting tools may run on or interface with Windows-based systems, making cross-platform experience valuable. 

We welcome recent graduates and engineers with a few years of relevant experience. You do not need to match every technology below. We value sound fundamentals, practical curiosity, and evidence that you enjoy solving software-and-hardware problems.
