Senior Software Engineer, Swarm SystemsHybrid - Apium - San Diego, CA 92121; CA Remote - Remote, CA 99999OverviewSalary Range $113,965.00 - $178,135.00 SalaryDescriptionLocation: Remote/Hybrid/United StatesApium Swarm Robotics (ASR) is revolutionizing swarm autonomy software for air, surface, undersea, and ground vehicles operating across dual-use commercial and defense environments. Our systems are deployed on real platforms, tested in the field, and delivered to customers operating in complex, uncertain, and safety-critical conditions.We do not build research prototypes or slideware. Our software is integrated into real vehicles, tested in the field, and delivered to customers who depend on operational reliability, speed of execution, and mission relevance.
We prioritize performance over hype.ASR systems represent the next phase in autonomy: collaborative swarming. These are not like pre-programmed drones for light shows. We are creating real-time cooperative management that lets one operator control dozens to hundreds of vehicles in real-time with the ease of controlling a single vehicle.
As such, this role requires comfort with responsibility, ambiguity, and operational accountability.About the JobASR seeks a software engineer to join our software development team. This role targets a developer capable of maintaining the existing code base while developing new features within our primary code base. Development targets include C++ based core swarm processes running on our ground station and onboard drones as well as the ground station Python web services.Unlike almost any other robotics company, ASR's advanced SITL suite allows developers to work from home, making ours one of the only robotics companies to allow remote work.
Travel opportunities for testing and demonstrations will allow you to witness firsthand your contributions as dozens of drones take flight.Position will include the development of new swarming behaviors and communication methodologies as well as the general functionality of the system.This senior role will include participation in the improvement / redefinition of the software architecture, helping to define a more rigorous software development process.Key ResponsibilitiesMaintain and extend ASR C++ code base for ground station and drone operationsDevelopment of new swarming algorithmsModifications and extension of our swarm communications protocolSoftware architecture and engineering process developmentRequired QualificationsMust be a US PersonStrong development experience with C++Front end web development using HTML CSS, Java ScriptBackend web development using PythonAndroid development using Java or KotlinStrong grasp and preference for object-oriented development methodologiesStrong mathematical and/or physics background including comfort with vector operationsExpert in coding in C and C++ including the standard template libraryAdvanced low-level knowledge such as compiler operation and memory managementExperience developing in a Linux environment including use of POSIX and similar librariesComfort working independently with limited oversightAbility to remain calm and effective under operational pressurePreferred QualificationsStrong in background in LinuxExperience using AI coding assistance toolsExperience in video game developmentExperience in Autonomy systemsExperience developing under standard architectural patters such as MVC, MVP, MVVMExperience with cross platform frameworks such as Flutter, React Native, Xamarin or similarPrevious experience with microcontroller development for targets such as the STM32Real Time Operating SystemsEmbedded Linux including YACTOExperience using the Pub/Sub architectural patternPrevious development experience with autonomous systemsStrong mechanical, electrical, or systems troubleshooting skillsU.S. security clearance or ability to obtain oneOperational RequirementsExperience with software development processes such as AgileExperience with aerospace software development processesCompensationCompetitive Salary: $113,965 - $178,135 with opportunities for performance-based bonuses and equity
