Senior Embedded Software Engineers

teqLink; København; On-site; DKK 900,000 - 1,200,000; Full time

Job summary

teqLink is seeking two senior embedded software engineers who will work on a cutting-edge Counter-UAS platform in Copenhagen. You will own software that runs on edge AI nodes and sensors, including NVIDIA Jetson platforms, driving radar, cameras, and imagers to generate tracks for operators.

One role leans toward perception and computer vision while the other focuses on platform, sensor integration, and distributed real-time performance.

Qualifications

• Proficient in modern C++ for embedded platforms.
• Strong Linux experience across multiple stack layers.
• Experience with computer vision and/or distributed systems.
• Comfortable working with AI agents in daily work.
• Ability to own problems from statement to solution and design freely.
• Curiosity and preference for testing assumptions.
• Willingness to challenge and fix design choices you’ve shipped.

Responsibilities

• Detection and tracking pipelines: ingest, inference, and low-latency edge optimization.
• Sensor fusion: fuse radar, EO/IR, acoustic sensors and RF data, with tracking and intelligence.
• Distributed layer: inter-node messaging, time synchronization, fault tolerance.
• Sensors: integration of new hardware, drivers and protocol layers, calibration and management.
• Bring-up of new hardware: board support, kernel drivers, software integration.
• Field trials: test in real scenarios and report fixes.

Job description

No one is sure those were drones. Do you want to find out – for sure?

Then maybe you are one of the two senior embedded software engineers this cutting-edge Counter - UAS platform is looking for.

teqLink is looking for two experienced Senior Embedded Software Engineers who know their AI agents to join a small, fast-growing team within Counter-UAS technology in Copenhagen.

You will own software that is part of a distributed system of edge AI nodes and sensors: NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor and Orin NX under embedded Linux, driving radar, daylight cameras and thermal imagers, and turning their output into tracks an operator can act on.

The system is highly distributed. Sensor nodes, edge inference, fusion and the operator picture run as separate processes on separate machines over a network, which shapes most of our design decisions.

Both software engineers will be working on the same system, but we expect one person to lean toward perception and computer vision, and the other toward platform, sensor integration and distributed real-time performance.

Tell us which end of that you gravitate to - we would rather shape the roles around the people we hire than the other way round.

Typical work:

• Detection and tracking pipelines: camera and thermal ingest, inference, and low-latency performance optimization for edge computations
• Sensor fusion: fuse input from different nodes such as radar, electro-optical and infra-red cameras, acoustic sensors and RF. Processing, association, track management and intelligence
• The distributed layer: message transport between nodes, time synchronization, fault tolerance and recovery
• Sensors: integration of new sensor hardware, drivers and protocol layers, calibration and management
• Bring-up new hardware: board support, kernel drivers and software integration work
• Field trials: test the system in real scenarios, and come back with the list of things that need fixing

Requirements

• Experienced with modern C++ development and embedded systems
• Linux experience - you are comfortable working across different layers of the stack
• Experience with computer vision and/or distributed systems
• Comfortable working with AI agents in your day-to-day work
• The ability to take ownership and work from a problem statement rather than a specification. We define the problem and the constraints; the design and the tradeoffs are yours
• Curiosity and a preference for testing an assumption over discussing it
• Willingness to say a design is wrong - including one of ours, including one you shipped last month

About the company
