• A C++ Native: You write clean, performant Modern C++ (17/20/23). You understand the cost of every allocation and the value of a deterministic system.
• Systems-Minded: You think in terms of data flows, state machines, and concurrency. You understand that in our domain, "late data is wrong data."
• A Problem Solver: You dive deep into the details to identify, understand, and solve difficult technical problems at the hardware-software boundary.
• High Agency: You don't wait for perfect specifications. You understand the mission, look at the code, and drive the architecture forward.
• Collaborative: You thrive in a multidisciplinary team, working closely with frontend, robotics, and integration engineers to deliver a cohesive product.
