EW Network & Embedded Software Engineer (All Genders)

You will take our directional mesh datalink from the lab bench onto real platforms and make it a fieldable, manageable, and verifiable network. You own everything between the radio and the rest of the system: the embedded software stack, network management, data transport, and the logging that proves the link works. No RF background is required. We are looking for a strong embedded and networking engineer who has put software on physical systems., * Integrate the datalink onto platform compute: embedded Linux bring-up, drivers, deployment images, OTA updates, and secure boot.

• Build network management: node identity, configuration and key distribution, health monitoring, and remote diagnostics of fielded nodes.
• Own automated logging as a deliverable in its own right: time-aligned at both ends of the link and detailed enough to serve as evidence for programme milestones.
• Implement telemetry and video transport (UDP/TCP, RTP) and the interfaces to ground control stations and our C2 software.

• Embedded Linux experience beyond the application level: bring-up, drivers, and product deployment.
• Networking at packet level, including how UDP and TCP behave under loss.
• You have integrated software onto a physical system (vehicle, robot, or aircraft) and you treat the log as a design object, not an afterthought.
• C/C++, Python, and Yocto or a comparable build system.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience with the PX4, ArduPilot, or MAVLink ecosystem, ideally from a UAS manufacturer.
• Video transport over constrained or lossy links.
