Job Title
We are looking for multiple talented and purpose-driven Software Engineers up to Senior level to help build the autonomous marine systems that will define the future of maritime operations, joining a team that develops and operates world-leading Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Autonomous Surface Vehicles (USVs) used in some of the most demanding, data-scarce and high-consequence environments on the planet.
You’ll contribute directly to the real-time control, safety, autonomy and mission execution at the heart of our platforms - pioneering technology that radically improves the security and prosperity of our customers. Working at the intersection of advanced robotics and live field operations, you’ll help deliver reliable, high-performance software that stands up to the harshest conditions, enabling us to push the boundaries of what uncrewed systems can do.
What you will do
- Developing and refining real-time control systems for high-speed autonomous surface and underwater vehicles
- Writing reliable software for navigation, mission execution, fault management, and sensor integration
- Designing communications interfaces (serial, satellite, acoustic) and managing edge cases like low bandwidth or lost links
- Building safety-critical subsystems including fallback modes, health monitoring, and emergency handling
- Working closely with field teams to test, iterate, and validate software under operational conditions
- Participating in design reviews, simulations, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and sea trials
- Integrating new sensors and equipment with our C2 system
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who you are
- Strong proficiency in modern C++ (C++11 or later), ideally within safety- or mission-critical applications.
- Experience with real-time or embedded systems (e.g. RTOS, bare metal, or Linux-based platforms)
- Familiarity with Linux development workflows, and Git.
- Proven ability to work as part of a multi-disciplinary engineering team
- Strong sense of ownership: you take initiative, simplify where possible, and follow through on commitments
- Resilience and adaptability: you stay focused when things change, fail, or need to be reworked
- Commitment to safety and quality: you understand the system-level impact of your code and act accordingly
Desirable
- Experience with ROS (Robot Operating System), including ROS1 and ROS2, for robotic control and sensor integration.
- Understanding of navigation, control systems, and sensor fusion
- Experience with serial and low-bandwidth communications (e.g. RS-232/485, acoustic, satellite)
- Knowledge of geodetic calculations or coordinate transformation systems
- Familiarity with DCCL or similar compact data encoding standards
- Field experience in deploying, testing, or troubleshooting autonomous systems in operational environments
