À propos de ce poste Senior Software Engineer, Operator Tools chez Elroyair
We are a team of builders, engineers, and operators who believe that the defense, commercial, and rapid response communities need faster, better logistics solutions. We are seeing increasing demand as customers and prospects respond enthusiastically to the systems we’ve built. As we mature and deploy our offerings, we are looking for people like you: motivated collaborators, enthusiastic about our mission and ready to roll up their sleeves and make a big impact to improve how logistics works around the world. You will play an important role in establishing the Elroy Air Chaparral as the industry standard in this massive market.
We believe diverse perspectives at all levels of the organization are critical to innovation and employee development. This includes but is not limited to gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender expression, religion, age, ability, parenthood status, veteran status, educational background, citizenship status, or any combination of these characteristics.
The Role
What You'll Work On
Desktop application development for mission planning, real-time telemetry, and vehicle diagnostics (Qt, Electron, or similar native/hybrid desktop frameworks)
Visualization and data presentation for complex, time-series, and spatial data from autonomous systems
Communication interfaces between desktop tools and embedded systems (serial, UDP, custom protocols, MAVLink or similar)
Ground support tooling: calibration workflows, pre-flight checks, log analysis, and fleet management interfaces
Collaboration with the simulation infrastructure team to expose cloud batch results in accessible, actionable UI
Web-based data analysis and visualization tools that connect to cloud databases. Think interactive flight data replay, post-mission analysis dashboards, and fleet-level trend reporting
C++ and Python development across the stack; comfort moving between application logic and lower-level interfaces
Contribution to the team’s overall software architecture and developer experience, particularly for tooling and internal platforms
What We're Looking For
You probably have:
5+ years of professional software development, with experience across desktop application development and web-based tools, ideally both
Strong C++ and/or Python skills; experience structuring non-trivial desktop applications
A track record of building UIs that are usable under real-world operational conditions, not just demos
Ability to work across the stack: from application logic down to protocol parsing or up to data visualization
Experience integrating applications with real hardware or real-time data sources
High standards for software architecture, API design, and internal tooling quality
It’s a bonus if you have:
Experience in aerospace, defense, robotics, or other safety-critical domains
Familiarity with embedded software concepts: you don’t need to write firmware, but you should be able to read it, build it, run it, and understand its constraints
Experience with cloud-based simulation or batch processing infrastructure
Exposure to geospatial visualization, 3D rendering, or time-series data at scale
Our Stack
Primary languages: C++ and Python
Desktop frameworks: Qt and/or Electron (we’re pragmatic and flexible about tooling choices)
Web UI: React or similar modern framework for cloud-connected data visualization and analysis tools; backends in Python
Data: custom telemetry protocols, time-series logs, simulation output from cloud batch runners
Version control and CI: Git, GitHub, cloud-based batch simulation and test runners
Modern AI coding tools used as productivity accelerators, not as a substitute for engineering judgment
