Key objectives of the role

• Reducing the number of defects identified during commissioning and operation at customer sites;

• Ensuring repeatable, automated, and auditable software releases;

• Providing clear identification of the software version running on each device;

• Enabling secure remote updates without requiring an on-site service visit each time;

• Increasing system stability and reducing issue diagnosis time;

• Standardising software development practices across all teams.

• Experience in defining software quality metrics and reporting the technical status of a project;

• Knowledge of cybersecurity principles for cloud-connected devices.

What we offer

• A genuine influence on the architecture and software development standards of autonomous robots;

• The opportunity to design quality and CI/CD processes for an entire product and fleet of devices;

• Work on solutions combining robotics, embedded systems, cloud technologies, and artificial intelligence;

• A high degree of independence and direct cooperation with the technical team and company management;
