Senior Backend Engineer Offline

MilTech 🪖

We're building high-performance software for UAVs and autonomous systems — where milliseconds matter and everything runs on the edge.
You’ll be working with real-time video pipelines, hardware integration, and computer vision systems — writing code that literally flies.

If you love digging into complex tech, enjoy figuring out “some new weird thing”, and can comfortably switch between C++, Python — this one’s for you.

 

Your Responsibilities:

  • Develop and maintain C++/Python backend services for edge devices
  • Integrate software with hardware platforms like Jetson, Raspberry Pi, microcontrollers
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers and troubleshoot low-level bugs
  • Ensure system performance, low-latency data handling, and fault tolerance
  • Communicate with drones via MAVLink and work with PX4/ArduPilot stack
  • Work with GStreamer, FFmpeg, and handle live video streams

Requirements:

  • Backend Engineer with 5+ years of experience (embedded development experience will be a plus)
  • Strong expertise in modern C++ (multithreading, optimization, memory mgmt.)
  • Python knowledge
  • Experience with Linux system programming and debugging
  • Experience working with real-time systems and network protocols

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with PX4 / ArduPilot / Betaflight / iNav
  • Worked with single board computers (Jetson, Raspberry Pi, etc.)
  • Hardware debugging skills, soldering experience
  • Knowledge of embedded communication (UART, SPI, I2C)
  • Drone piloting (real or sim)
  • Experience with 3D printing or prototyping
  • Familiarity with video processing frameworks: GStreamer / FFmpeg / OpenCV

     

We Offer

  • A team that actually enjoys solving hard problems
  • Hands-on work with real hardware  and edge devices
  • A space for R&D, experimentation, and rapid prototyping
  • A chance to build tech that flies, sees, and reacts — in real time
