We are looking for a Senior-level freelance engineer with proven, hands-on experience in backend and systems development (Python and C++) for drones, UAVs, or robotic platforms. This role involves building critical software that directly powers autonomous aerial operations, from onboard systems to mission control infrastructure.

What you’ll do

• Design and develop backend services for mission control and monitoring of autonomous drones
   
• Build reliable data pipelines to process and analyze telemetry in real time
   
• Implement and maintain communication protocols (MAVLink over UDP/TCP)
   
• Integrate with PX4 or ArduPilot flight stacks and extend/customize C++ components when needed
   
• Contribute to software deployment on embedded platforms (e.g., Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson)
   
• Collaborate remotely with robotics, hardware, and frontend teams to deliver end-to-end UAV solutions
  
   

You have

• Mandatory: production-level experience building software for drones/UAVs or robotic platforms
   
• Strong Python expertise (Asyncio, FastAPI/Flask, or similar frameworks)
   
• Solid C++ experience in robotics, real-time systems, or embedded development
   
• Practical experience with PX4 or ArduPilot flight stacks
   
• Hands-on experience with MAVLink protocol
   
• Strong understanding of UAV/robotics development workflows
   
• Experience working in Linux environments
   
• Hands-on knowledge of Docker and containerized deployments
   
• Git and version control best practices
   
• Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines
   
• Solid understanding of networking concepts (UDP/TCP, DHCP, traffic debugging tools)
  
   

Nice to have

• Experience with software deployment on embedded hardware platforms
   
• Experience with telemetry visualization or monitoring dashboards
   
• Familiarity with video streaming technologies (depending on the team assignment)
   
• Exposure to cloud-based infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
  Prior work in Agile, cross-functional robotics teams
  
   

What we offer

• Freelance / hourly paid (long-term collaboration possible)
   
• Competitive rate based on expertise and contributions
   
• 100% remote & flexible working hours
   
• Direct involvement in cutting-edge UAV and robotics projects
   
• A motivated international team where your work has a real impact on live autonomous systems
  
   

👉 Proven PX4 or ArduPilot experience is required. If you bring practical UAV/drone software expertise (Python + C++) and understand real-world robotics workflows, we’d be excited to talk with you.
