HW/SW Engineer (microcontrollers and robotic systems)

We are looking for a HW and SW engineer for our our Advanced Security and Defense Products Research Department. You will be working in a small team or alone with regular meetings with colleagues from other parts of the world. Your responsibility will be to develop new technologies from scratch. Designing a functional solution, developing a prototype and testing it in real conditions. We are looking for a person for whom the limits of current technology are not a limit, but a challenge.

Job description

• SW development for microcontrollers (Raspberry, Arduino, nVidia Jetson)
• Testing of prototype devices and their modification
• Prototype development (3D printing, CNC, PCB development, sensor testing)

Your skillset

• Proven experience working with microcontrollers, 3D printing, electronics programming (C/C++/Python), electric motors (BLDC)
• Experience working with sensors (LIDAR, image processing, stereo cameras, RADAR); Kalman filtering applied to GPS/INS or IMU; Localization, mapping, SLAM; MavLink; Multirotor dynamics and flight control
• Basic understanding of flight controllers (Pixhawk and PX4) and ROS
• English at least at B2 level (occasional collaboration and video conferencing with English speaking colleagues, need to understand English written manuals)

Useful experience

• Proactive and creative approach to solving problems and difficulties in the development of new technologies
• Willingness to learn something new and look for new and unconventional ways to achieve a goal
• The candidate’s advantage is an interest in RC and modeling, experience with drone development, overlap into other areas of robotics and autonomous systems

Additional information for candidates

• Because we develop security and defense technologies, it is possible that we may require you to undergo a National Security Agency background check in the future

What you can expect from us?

• Work in the office (Karlín, Prague 8) or from home, as agreed
• Background of a strong group that has been on the market for more than 10 years
• We are a purely Czech company based in Prague
