Job description

We’re a small team in the software department who solve interesting problems in modern C++. Now we're looking for a new teammate to join us!

What you’ll do

Our main product is an array of 100+ microphones, which, combined with some clever maths and signals processing, enables us to listen in a direction. This allows us to detect and locate threats like drones.

The code that runs on the array is written in modern C++, where performance, clean code, safety, and collaboration really matter. The main responsibility of the code is to continuously sample the microphones, run the necessary DSP and machine learning algorithms, and turn this into detection information. This is then made available via network APIs, together with audio and video streams.

To make all of this happen, we use tools like C++23, CMake, Conan, clang-tidy, clang-format, sanitizers, IDEs of your choice, git and GitLab. And the best tool of all; talking to each other and getting stuff done.

The role is on-site and based in Oslo, Norway. C++ experience as well as good written and oral communication skills in English are required. Any knowledge in TypeScript, Rust and CMake is a bonus.

If this sounds fun to you, and you have experience in some of what we have listed, send us an application describing how you can contribute. A bachelor’s degree or other relevant experience is an advantage when applying.

Working at Squarehead

Those of us who currently work here tend to appreciate:

• Working on a project that's both meaningful, important and just very cool!
• A friendly and supportive team and organisation

• A focus on developer experience - we createour own tools to ease our work
• Small team offices
• Very little overhead for developers: You work closely with the development team and product managers etc.
• Freedom to get the job done in the best way, no micro-management
• Great tools such as top-of the line MacBook Pros
• Everything being developed locally in our Oslo office, including the hardware
• The occasional field trip to test our systems in practice
• Good work/life balance and a flexible work day
• Employee development through conferences, courses and hackathons

Developers at Squarehead are also actively involved with organising the NDC TechTown conference and Oslo C++ Users Group, and visit and speak at conferences in Norway and abroad.

Other niceties:

In addition to the points mentioned above, we have:

• Easy commute right next to the subway
• Subsidised canteen
• Bi-weekly organized physical activity, chosen annually by employees (currently Padel‑tennis)
