Software Engineer

We are seeking a skilled GNC (Guidance, Navigation & Control) Developer/Algorithm Engineer to support the development of autonomous navigation capabilities for rover platforms. The role focuses on designing, validating, and integrating advanced algorithms that enable intelligent, on-board decision-making in challenging environments.

Key Responsibilities

Algorithm Development

• Design and develop advanced GNC algorithms for autonomous rover navigation
• Implement capabilities to enable real-time, on-board decision-making and autonomy
• Ensure robustness and reliability of algorithms for operation in complex terrains

Simulation & Prototyping

• Develop and maintain numerical simulation models to validate algorithm performance
• Integrate GNC algorithms with rover sensor systems and hardware interfaces
• Support rapid prototyping activities using Robot Operating System (ROS 2)

Testing & Validation

• Validate algorithm performance within custom simulation environments
• Conduct hands-on testing on full-scale prototype rovers, including:
• Indoor testing in controlled environments
• Outdoor field trials in realistic terrain
• Analyse test results and iterate on algorithm performance

Preferred Skills & Experience (optional to include if needed)

• Must have a strong background in robotics, control systems, or autonomous systems
• Must have an experience with ROS / ROS 2
• Proficiency in simulation tools and algorithm development (e.g., Python, C++, MATLAB)
• Experience working with sensor integration (e.g., LiDAR, IMU, cameras)
• Familiarity with field testing and real-world system validation
