Job Description
Life as a Software Engineer in Defence is great. You build cool tech with real purpose. But the downsides are the layers of management. Bogged down by bureaucracy, you’re too busy creating documentation or covering your backside to build the products you’re interested in.
Most engineers tend to leave prime Defence companies because they don’t make enough impact, and don't see the project through the entire development lifecycle.
They feel like a small cog in a big wheel.
What if you could change that?
You’d join an Adelaide based defence SME creating the absolute cutting edge of Signal Processing and RF for edge devices.
You’d develop low latency high throughput C++ software for proprietary hardware and software solutions.
Developing a multi-GPU system for high frequency signal processing, you’ll design and implement C++ software that does the heavy lifting for processing all that RF data.
The people in your new team are some of the best you’ll ever work with. From Signal Processing to RF Engineers developing algorithms running on FPGA… More cool tech than you can imagine.
With a flat structure, direct reporting and flexibility, bureaucracy and politics will be a thing of the past.
Working for an SME means things happen quickly, you haven’t got years baked in legacy systems, processes, and documentation to worry about. This company offers quarterly reviews to ensure you're on track to continue advancing in your career.
You’d be part of an agile, revenue positive, and stable business. Part of a mature engineering environment developing and testing containerized software applications for real-time and embedded software systems.
What we're looking for
To hit the ground running, we need someone pretty well-versed in C++ and ideally Python to work on the backend of our core radar software. You know your way around a code base and can write functional code, but you're looking for mentorship to get better at it.
Ideally, you have had at least 1 full year of commercial experience developing software, but if you back yourself based on academic achievements and internships, I'm happy to hear from you.
Be a big fish and make a real difference at a company you can be proud to work at.
