Embedded Linux Software Engineer Canberra

OverviewA defence‐focused engineering group is expanding its embedded software capability to support current programs, higher demand, and a rapidly evolving technology roadmap.

This is a hands‐on, hardware‐proximate setting where embedded, systems, electrical, and mechanical engineers build real systems together, not in silos.

Location: Canberra (onsite) | Melbourne considered only for exceptional candidates.What You'll Be BuildingYou'll work on real‐time embedded systems used for tracking, stabilisation, sensing, and fire‐control.

Core technologies include:Embedded LinuxC, C++Real‐time, low‐level hardware integrationComputer vision and image‐processing pipelinesML‐assisted tracking (integration, not research)Java for orchestration and system coordinationPython for testing, prototyping, and harnessesTI DSPs, microprocessors, sensors, gimbals, motor controlA future shift into Xilinx UltraScale FPGA platformsWho Thrives HereThis isn't for abstract architects or people who want to stay "high level".

It suits engineers who like real systems, real hardware, real constraints.

You'll be a robust match if you:Are eligible for Australian security clearance (and meet ITAR conditions)Are comfortable working on defence and weapons‐adjacent systemsLove embedded systems, sensing, CV, and real‐time techAre product‐driven and stay in the fight until the system worksWant genuine cross‐disciplinary collaboration and increasing technical responsibilityWhy This Team Stands OutHardware, software, electrical, mechanical, and systems engineering all within metres of each otherDeep exposure across multiple programs.

No silos.Locally engineered, built, and integrated equipmentAccess to cutting‐edge embedded tech: real‐time CV, stabilisation, ML‐assisted tracking, FPGA platformsStrong upside for engineers aiming at senior/principal pathways
