• EU citizenship required for defence programs.
• Residence in Toulouse or willing to relocate.
• Fluent English.
• Nice to have: secure boot, code signing, device identity, staged rollouts or OTA frameworks (SWUpdate, Mender, RAUC).
• Nice to have: hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing.
• Nice to have: defence/aerospace/robotics background.
• Nice to have: degree from top French engineering school.
• Nice to have: fluent French.

Responsabilités

• Own the full deployment pipeline from source to fielded devices.
• Scale OTA updates from MVP to thousands of units.
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for embedded and edge software on ARM and NVIDIA Jetson platforms.
• Build, package and release embedded Linux images with Yocto or Buildroot.
• Implement secure boot, code signing, device identity and staged rollouts.
• Set up hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing so every release is checked on real hardware.
• Monitor device fleets and handle rollbacks and recovery when updates fail.
• Work closely with the software, hardware and field teams to keep releases reliable and on schedule.
• Document release processes and help define engineering standards as the team grows.

Description du poste

We're looking for a Senior Deployment Engineer to own the full path from source code to deployed, secured and verified physical devices running in the field. You'll take an over-the-air (OTA) update process that works at MVP stage and scale it to thousands of drone navigation units flying with defence and aerospace customers. The role covers the whole release loop: building and packaging software, CI/CD, secure boot and code signing, staged rollouts, and hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing. You'll work hands‑on with embedded Linux on ARM and NVIDIA Jetson devices, not only with cloud pipelines. Reliability is at the core of the job, because every release ends up on hardware operating in demanding real‑world conditions. It's a great fit for an embedded or edge release engineer who wants real ownership in an early‑stage deep‑tech team.

Details

• Schedule: Full time
• Location: Onsite (Toulouse, France)
• Start: ASAP
• Duration: Long‑term
• English: Fluent
• Type of collaboration: Internal Employment

About the project:

The company is a seed‑stage defence‑tech startup based in Toulouse. It builds visual navigation modules that let drones navigate without GPS, in environments where satellite signals are unavailable or jammed. Its customers are defence and aerospace organizations that need dependable hardware and software in the field. The product is now moving from early deployments to thousands of units, so the release and update infrastructure has to grow with it. The team is small, technical and moves fast, with a lot of ownership for each engineer. This hire will build the foundation that every future software release relies on.

You have:

• - 3–8 years of professional engineering experience after your degree
• - Hands‑on experience building, packaging, releasing or deploying software onto physical embedded or edge devices (embedded Linux boards, Jetson/ARM, drones, robots)
• - Strong skills in Python, Linux and CI/CD
• - Experience with Docker and embedded Linux build systems such as Yocto or Buildroot
• - A reliability mindset and end‑to‑end ownership of device releases
• - EU citizenship (required for defence program eligibility)
• - Residence in Toulouse or its commuting area, or readiness to relocate
• - Fluent English
• - Nice to have: experience with secure boot, code signing, device identity, staged rollouts or OTA frameworks (SWUpdate, Mender, RAUC)
• - Nice to have: experience with hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing
• - Nice to have: background in defence, aerospace, robotics or other safety‑critical and regulated domains
• - Nice to have: degree from a top French engineering school (ISAE‑SUPAERO, ENAC, ENSEEIHT, INSA Toulouse, X, Centrale, Mines)
• - Nice to have: fluent French

What to do:

• Own the full deployment pipeline from source code to secured, verified devices in the field
• Scale the OTA update process from MVP to thousands of units
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for embedded and edge software on ARM and NVIDIA Jetson platforms
• Build, package and release embedded Linux images with Yocto or Buildroot
• Implement secure boot, code signing, device identity and staged rollout mechanisms
• Set up and run hardware‑in‑the-loop testing so every release is checked on real hardware
• Monitor device fleets and handle rollbacks and recovery when updates fail
• Work closely with the software, hardware and field teams to keep releases reliable and on schedule
• Document release processes and help define engineering standards as the team grows
