Senior Software Engineer - Autonomous Command & Control Platform

We are building the core infrastructure and operating system for autonomous platforms.
Our platform enables real-world autonomous operations by coordinating drones, docking stations, edge systems, operators, and external systems in real time. It serves as the operational backbone for mission execution, command and control, communication, telemetry, orchestration, and fleet coordination across distributed autonomous environments.
This is not a typical backend role.
You will work at the intersection of distributed systems, Command & Control (C2), autonomous platforms, and real-world operations.
We are looking for engineers who are comfortable entering complex and unfamiliar systems, quickly understanding how they work, and turning operational concepts into clean software models and architectures.
You should enjoy reasoning about entities, relationships, state, events, commands, missions, resources, and system boundaries - and designing software that represents and coordinates them reliably.
The platform includes:
Command & Control capabilities for autonomous systems
Fleet orchestration and mission lifecycle management
Real-time communication between distributed autonomous components
Modeling and management of operational entities, states, and relationships
Telemetry, video, and operational data processing
Device interoperability across heterogeneous autonomous platforms
SDKs and APIs for platform integration and extensibility
AI agents and intelligent automation interacting with operational systems
As a Senior Engineer, you will help shape the technical foundation and domain architecture of the platform while solving complex problems across distributed systems, autonomous operations, and Command & Control.
Responsibilities
Design and build software systems for autonomous platform operations and Command & Control
Translate complex operational requirements and domain concepts into robust software architectures
Model operational entities, relationships, state transitions, commands, events, and workflows
Lead architecture and system design decisions across services, communication layers, and domain boundaries
Build scalable, low-latency, resilient production services
Design reliable communication and messaging flows between distributed system components
Solve complex challenges involving concurrency, scalability, latency, synchronization, and fault tolerance
Build abstraction layers for integrating heterogeneous autonomous devices, platforms, and external systems
Develop internal SDKs, APIs, and reusable infrastructure components
Design systems that can be consumed and operated by humans, autonomous components, and AI agents
Improve observability, debugging capabilities, and operational reliability
Drive engineering best practices, clean architecture, and code quality standards
Explore new technologies and approaches when existing solutions are not sufficient
