Software Development
I’ve partnered exclusively with a pioneering Autonomous UAV company in the Netherlands that’s scaling up their R&D and Engineering team.
They’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help shape the core software behind their cutting-edge platforms-deployed across defense, agriculture, and industrial inspection use cases around the world.
In this role, you’ll design and develop embedded and ground-control software that powers long-range UAVs in the most demanding conditions.
What You’ll Be Working On:
- Building mission-critical embedded and ground-control software in C++ or Python
- Contributing to end-to-end architecture, optimisation, testing, and deployment of UAV systems.
- Working closely with hardware and test teams to integrate software into real-world missions.
Experience That Stands Out:
- Deep experience in C++ or Python, with strong system-level thinking.
- Familiar with UAV development and PX4
- Comfortable taking ownership and collaborating cross-functionally.
Salary ~ €6,000-€8000/month + 8% holiday allowance + 27 days vacation.
Role based near Amsterdam (on-site, with some flexibility).
