Description

What we offer Work in an international, agile team creating the future of autonomous systems Grow your career in a expanding and ambitious engineering team Build innovative products using state-of-the-art technologies in AI, robotics, and autonomy Benefit from a steep learning curve and continuous development Enjoy team events and a strong, collaborative culture Your mission Build real autonomous systems that operate in the real world, not in the lab. Join our engineering team and help build the core autonomy that powers our next generation robotic systems used for defense and mission-critical operations. You will design, implement, and harden robotic software that must perform under real operational conditions : outdoors, under uncertainty, with real consequences. Your work will directly shape the reliability, safety, and tactical capability of the systems we deliver. You will contribute to the development and integration of core robotic capabilities, including: Designing and implementing robust, real-time robotics software components Working with multi-modal sensor data, ensuring timing, synchronization, and frame correctness Developing and improving algorithms in areas such as estimation, perception, planning, control, or integration Ensuring deterministic behavior, reliability, and system-level stability Debugging and validating robotic systems during field tests, under real-world constraints Collaborating with a cross-functional team of robotics, embedded, and domain experts Maintaining high engineering standards: code reviews, CI, reproducible builds, documentation You will execute on real hardware and iterate based on operational performance, field results are the final metric. Your profile Technical Fundamentals : Strong proficiency in modern C++ (17/20) Experience with ROS/ ROS 2 Solid foundation in algorithms, data structures, and numerical methods Experience developing software that runs on real robots, embedded systems, or hardware-in-the-loop setups Comfortable working with raw sensor data (timing, noise characteristics, transforms, calibration) Strong debugging skills: runtime issues, latency, performance bottlenecks, integration failures Ability to architect clean, modular, maintainable software systems Robotics Foundation : Understanding of at least one robotics domain: state estimation, perception, tracking, planning, control, sensor fusion, or integration Ability to reason about real-time behavior, latency budgets, and reliability requirements End-to-end thinking: understanding how individual modules affect the whole system Nice to have Python for tooling or prototyping Experience with robotics middleware or real-time systems Background in optimization, filtering, or physical modeling Experience with embedded platforms, GPUs, or simulation tools We hire for core engineering ability, everything else can be learned here. What else Builder mentality: you ship working solutions, not theoretical concepts Hands-on ownership: you proactively solve problems, even outside your direct scope Field-driven mindset: you care about what survives real operations, not “lab perfect” High quality bar: you aim for reliability, determinism, and clarity in your engineering Startup drive: you execute fast despite ambiguity, and adapt quickly Mission alignment: genuine motivation to work on defense-relevant, safety-critical robotics Nationality of a NATO member nation or close ally is required Why us? About us The world is changing. Exponential technologies are enabling new types of security threats. ATS is committed to staying ahead by building nimble, scalable, and cost-effective defences. We are looking for passionate team members who are eager to create exceptional products, safeguard our freedom, and strengthen the resilience of democracies. Who we are: Autonomous Teaming is a defence-tech start-up specializing in machine vision solutions. Driven by cutting-edge innovation, our team works on next-generation technologies designed to meet rapidly evolving security challenges. What we do: We develop systems that enable computers and sensors to operate as coordinated teams, collaborating in real time to counter AI-powered asymmetric threats at scale — including drone swarms and other UXVs. Our mission is to build resilient, intelligent defence capabilities that perform reliably in the most demanding environments. How we work: We value close, in-person collaboration as the foundation for building complex, high-impact technology, while maintaining flexibility aligned to role and team needs. Our culture is built on ownership, responsibility, and trust — with a shared commitment to growing and building together. Where we are: Based in Munich, Berlin, and Toulouse, we are expanding rapidly across Europe with plans to open additional office hubs.
