Jobbeschreibung

Job Title: Software Engineer

Job Description

This role focuses on designing and building a real-time data ecosystem that integrates high-speed sensor, telemetry, and video data. You will help create a system that ingests and processes data from players, balls, cameras, and high-speed video capture to deliver near-real-time insights within a larger distributed architecture. The team is driving toward a minimum viable product by year-end, with strong expectations that the program will continue and expand beyond the initial delivery. You will act as a Sr. contributor and technical leader on a small, highly collaborative engineering team, shaping both the architecture and implementation of production-ready software.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop real-time and near-real-time software systems that ingest and process high-speed sensor, telemetry, and video data.
• Build, integrate, and optimize pipelines for high-volume data streams from players, balls, cameras, and high-speed video capture devices.
• Contribute to and help define the overall system architecture for a distributed, real-time data ecosystem.
• Implement production-ready software primarily using C++ and C#, ensuring reliability, performance, and maintainability.
• Support the full software development lifecycle, including requirements gathering, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing improvements.
• Collaborate closely with onsite engineering and product stakeholders to clarify requirements, align on priorities, and deliver high-quality solutions.
• Work with real-time messaging and distributed systems frameworks (such as ROS or DDS) to support near-real-time telemetry and control data flows.
• Provide technical leadership and guidance to a team of less-experienced developers, helping to elevate coding standards, design practices, and overall technical quality.
• Participate in biweekly meetings and other customer-facing discussions to communicate progress, gather feedback, and refine solutions.
• Adapt to new tools, languages, and technologies as needed to support evolving project and customer requirements.

Essential Skills

• Minimum seven years of relevant software development experience, with flexibility for exceptional candidates who can be productive immediately.
• Strong proficiency in C++ and/or C#, with the ability to implement production-ready, high-performance software.
• Experience with real-time or near-real-time messaging and distributed systems, such as ROS, DDS, or similar frameworks.
• Demonstrated ability to process high-volume, near-real-time telemetry and control data in a reliable and efficient manner.
• Strong system architecture experience, including experience designing distributed systems and complex software solutions.
• Hands-on coding experience combined with technical lead responsibilities, such as guiding design decisions and code quality.
• Ability to communicate effectively with customers and stakeholders, including participation in regular (e.g., biweekly) meetings.
• Experience with embedded software development and real-time operating systems (RTOS).
• Willingness to learn and use new languages, tools, and technologies as project needs evolve.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience with embedded systems platforms such as Yocto, QNX, or similar environments.
• Experience or interest in AI and IoT technologies, with openness to applying them in real-time data ecosystems.
• Experience working in small teams where individuals take on multiple responsibilities across the development lifecycle.
• Prior exposure to high-speed video processing, sensor integration, or telemetry systems.
• Experience mentoring or coaching less-experienced developers and contributing to a culture of technical excellence.
