• Producing technical reports and documentation on the performance of our system and benchmarking against competing solutions
• Managing versioning and release process across multiple customers

The must-haves

• Experience developing in a Linux environment comfortably
• Very good programming skills in Python or other scripting language
• Proficient with git, git workflows and CMake

• Ability to work with both software and hardware (e.g. trouble-shoothing issues with robotic systems)
• Confidently able and willing to work independently and with minimal supervision
• Keen problem solving and communication skills, with the ability to provide tangible examples

The nice-to-haves

• Hands-on experience in robotics (e.g. ROS), or computer machine vision or AR/VR/gaming experience (Unity/Unreal Engine, Android)
• Experience with embedded software development
• Previous experience in DevOps
