About Robosys Automation:
At Robosys Automation, we develop advanced autonomous control and AI navigation systems that are transforming how vessels operate. Our flagship VOYAGER AI enables crewed and uncrewed craft to navigate safely and efficiently across global waters. As we continue to grow internationally, we are looking for a Software Engineer to join our UK team in Southampton and support the delivery of mission-critical marine autonomy systems.
The Role:
We are seeking a highly capable Software Engineer to design and build real-time control and monitoring applications that interface directly with hardware, sensors, and industrial systems. Working closely with systems, controls, and hardware engineers, you will develop high-performance backend software using C# / .NET, operating close to the metal in safety-critical environments. This is not a purely web-based role — it requires strong systems thinking and hands-on problem-solving.
