Systems Software Engineer

First and foremost: We are not a "GPT wrapper" building AI on top of external APIs. At NeuralAgent, we are engineering the foundational layer of autonomous systems, building one of Europe's first Multi-AI-Agent Swarm Operating Systems. This is Deep Tech with a pulse. You will be collaborating with pioneers in AI, robotics, and aerospace to deploy code that survives in the real world, from contested airspace in defense scenarios to the vacuum of space.

You will join a team trusted by top-tier partners including Airbus, ESA, the European Defence Fund, FCAS, and Ukrainian drone manufacturers. Your contributions will directly power safety-critical, dual-use systems where performance is not just a metric, but a necessity for survival.

What we offer you:

• True Ownership: No micromanagement. We foster a culture of trust where you are the CEO of your domain. You build it, you own it, you fly it.
• Shared Success: We offer company shares: be early, contribute to the vision, and own a part of our future growth.
• First-Mover Advantage: Be part of the core engineering team defining a new category in swarm intelligence and decentralized computing.
• Modern Work Culture: We are results-driven, remote-friendly, and flexible. We care about shipping reliable code, not about counting hours in a chair.
• Real-World Impact: Leave the simulation behind. See your algorithms deployed in live drone swarms and space missions where your code makes the difference between mission success and failure.

We are looking for a Systems Software Engineer to become a core architect of our NeuralAgent Runtime: the high-performance engine that powers our AI agents on the edge.

This is a role for an engineer who thrives on constraints. You will be building the "nervous system" that runs directly on On-Board Computers (OBCs) of flying drones and orbiting satellites. You will work within a specialized team at the intersection of hardware abstraction, asynchronous programming, and real-time networking. Your code will determine whether a swarm of drones can coordinate in milliseconds or whether a satellite can optimize its link during a blackout window.

This is a high-responsibility position. You will not just be writing features; you will be making critical design decisions that affect the safety and reliability of autonomous systems operating in the real world.

Your profile

You are a systems engineer who loves the low-level details. You don't just use libraries; you want to know how they work under the hood. You understand that on an embedded device, "efficient code" isn't just a preference, it's a requirement for the system to fly. You are comfortable navigating the Linux kernel, debugging race conditions in multi-threaded applications, and writing safe, performant Rust code that interacts directly with hardware. You are looking for a role where your work has a tangible, physical impact.

Technical Requirements:

• Rust Mastery: Deep understanding of Rust, including lifetimes, ownership, and unsafe blocks. Experience with the tokio async runtime is highly desirable.
• Systems Knowledge: Solid grasp of operating system concepts (threading, memory management, syscalls) and Linux userspace/kernel interactions.
• Embedded Experience: Hands-on experience with embedded Linux (Yocto/Buildroot) or RTOS on ARM/RISC-V architectures.
• Networking Skills: Familiarity with network programming (TCP/UDP, sockets) and routing concepts.
• Hardware Interface: Experience writing drivers or interface code for protocols like UART, I2C, SPI, or CAN.
• Problem Solving: A proven ability to debug complex, asynchronous systems where reproducing the error might require a logic analyzer or a flight log.

• Experience with ROS2 or DDS middleware.
• Knowledge of PX4/ArduPilot or general drone control stacks.
• Background in space systems (OBCs, ECSS standards) or tactical networks.

At NeuralAgent, we are redefining the nervous system of autonomous operations. We engineer dual-use, cloud-free AI-Agent swarms that deliver sovereign, collaborative intelligence across space, air, and ground domains. By decoupling autonomy from centralized clouds, our lightweight, decentralized architecture eliminates decision latency and single points of failure, ensuring persistent mission connectivity even in the most extreme, contested environments. Whether orchestrating resilient satellite constellations, enabling dynamic defense maneuvers, or optimizing self-healing telecommunications networks, our agents provide transparent, certifiable trust and unlimited scalability. We don't just connect systems; we empower them to think, adapt, and act together; securely and autonomously.
