Job Description

Job Description:

Shield AI is seeking a C++ Software Engineer, Edge Systems to build mission-critical edge software for unmanned systems operating in demanding real-world environments. This role sits within the systems team, where software meets hardware. You will work across sensors, edge compute, imaging pipelines, mission systems, and autonomy.

You will develop production C++ software for Linux-based edge compute platforms, including NVIDIA Jetson-class systems and other ARM-based embedded platforms. You will work on sensor integration, hardware-facing applications, calibration tools, diagnostics, and mission-system interfaces. This is a hands-on role for an engineer with proven experience delivering reliable software that runs on real systems, not just prototypes.

You will work closely with systems, hardware, autonomy, AI, product, and test engineers to turn advanced capability into integrated, tested, fieldable software.
