Senior/Staff Software Engineer (Onboard Services)
UFORCE exists to make aggression unaffordable.
Founded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.
UFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together. Each platform is deployable on its own, and stronger as part of the system. Its product lines include the MAGURA family of uncrewed surface vessels, the NEMESIS family of strike platforms, the LIUT family of ground robotic platforms, and counter-UAS systems.
About the role
The Senior/Staff Software Engineer (Onboard Services) will design, build, and operate the software services that run on UFORCE’s uncrewed vehicles — spanning video streaming, telemetry, autonomy integration, vehicle control, health monitoring, navigation, and device integrations.
You will turn independently evolved services into one secure, testable, and maintainable onboard platform. This is a hands-on software engineering role focused on production Python services, service architecture, messaging, and reliable operation on constrained Linux hardware, including Raspberry Pi, x86, and NVIDIA Jetson.
You will also own the boundary between the vehicle and the backend: clear, versioned contracts with cloud services, deployment systems, video infrastructure, and operator interfaces that work over intermittent, low-bandwidth links. Working with backend, autonomy, hardware, QA, and field teams, you will make releases predictable and catch failures on the bench, not in the field.
What you’ll do
- Define and evolve a unified onboard service architecture: service boundaries, messaging, configuration, startup ordering, readiness, watchdogs, and graceful degradation when dependencies or devices are unavailable.
- Build and mig...
