Job Description


Middleware/Integration Engineer - Autonomous Systems & Command-and-Control

Location: Abu Dhabi, UAE (relocation supported)



About the rol


e
You'll join an advanced tech engineering team building mission-critical autonomous systems - UAV, UGV, and USV platforms - and the command-and-control software that operates them. This is deep infrastructure work: real-time messaging, distributed pub-sub systems, and the plumbing that enables robotics, sensors and operator interfaces to communicate reliably under real-time constraint
