Description

You want to help build Europe's resilience. You want to protect people and critical infrastructure – ultimately saving the lives of thousands. You want to work at the frontier of high‑performance autonomous systems. Join us at CDDS to bring next‑generation control, guidance, and state‑estimation algorithms into high-speed kinetic interceptor drones. Your Mission We are looking for a Senior Vision & Perception Engineer to architect and optimise our low-latency vision pipeline running on NVIDIA Jetson platforms. You will develop, tune, and extend DeepStream-based pipelines in C++, integrate differential-imaging workflows, and ensure end‑to‑end real‑time performance. You will collaborate with robotics, control, and embedded engineers and build the perception backbone that enables high-speed interception. Tasks Core Responsibilities Implement and optimize vision pipelines in C++ for low-latency object detection and tracking Develop high-speed detection and tracking algorithms on Jetson platforms Optimise TensorRT inference performance Profile and tune performance down to kernel-level bottlenecks Maintain GPU-accelerated development containers and CI pipelines Requirements Your Profile MSc/PhD in Computer Vision, Robotics, CS, or similar Expert knowledge in DeepStream, GStreamer, and low-level video pipelines Strong C++ skills and experience with CUDA, TensorRT, or Jetson optimisation Strong background in modern detection models (YOLO, EfficientDet, etc.) Experience with ROS2 and multi-process robotic systems Comfortable with rapid field-testing cycles and high‑ownership environments Benefits Why CDDS Direct impact on a mission‑critical technology shaping Europe’s security landscape Fast‑moving startup environment with high ownership Work with a highly technical, ambitious, and hands‑on team Real‑world testing, deployments, and customer demonstrations Attractive compensation Details Location: Schlieren (Zürich), on‑site Start date: ASAP Environment: High‑impact deep‑tech startup working on real deployments

Responsibilities

The role involves architecting and optimizing low-latency vision pipelines running on NVIDIA Jetson platforms, primarily by developing and tuning DeepStream-based pipelines in C++ for real-time performance. Responsibilities include implementing high-speed detection and tracking algorithms and ensuring end-to-end performance optimization down to kernel-level bottlenecks.
