An opportunity exists for a seasoned Senior Algorithms Engineer to join a cross-functional team building advanced real-time detection and tracking systems. This role involves shaping the evolution of a sensor fusion engine designed to detect and respond to next-gen aerial threats, with a particular focus on swarm tracking and performance optimisation.
Working within a fast-paced, collaborative environment, this engineer will apply expertise in algorithm development, performance tuning, and real-time data processing to deliver high-performance solutions in live deployments.
Responsibilities
- Lead innovation within a sensor fusion engine by improving tracking capabilities for high-density threat scenarios
- Design, profile, and optimise real-time, data-intensive applications using multi-threading, language bindings, and GPU acceleration
- Implement and assess novel tracking algorithms, drawing on current academic research and internal validation
- Maintain CI/CD infrastructure that enforces high code quality, runtime stability, and release integrity
- Contribute to cross-disciplinary projects by collaborating with engineers across software, embedded, and AI teams
- Apply structured engineering principles including testing, version control, and modular refactoring
- Assist in troubleshooting system behaviour and supporting downstream users in integration efforts
- Support observability and diagnostics through performance metrics and system instrumentation
Qualifications & Experience
- Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics or a related technical discipline
- 5+ years of experience in software engineering or algorithm development roles
- Proficiency in modern C++ with additional experience in Python or other OOP
- Experience working with GPU-based computation frameworks (e.g. CUDA, TensorRT)
- Familiarity with software performance profiling and code optimisation techniques
- Comfortable using CMake, CI/CD pipelines, unit testing frameworks, and Git
- Experience with Linux-based development and Docker-based environments
- Strong grasp of data structures, computational complexity, and applied mathematics
- Knowledge of multi-object tracking, sensor fusion, or multi-sensor systems
- Background in applied machine learning or probabilistic inference
- Familiarity with system monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, etc.
Ideal Profile
- Highly analytical with a deep interest in performance-critical systems
- Passionate about solving real-world challenges using elegant, efficient code
- Capable of leading the transition from research concepts to production-grade implementations
- Thrives in agile, fast-paced, and technically challenging environments
