Software Engineer (C++)
Robotto Co ApS · Tills vidare · Deadline 2026-11-13
Robotto Co ApS is seeking a **Software Engineer (C++)** to join its engineering team and develop software that powers the company's autonomous drone and unmanned systems platform. The position involves designing, developing, and maintaining high-quality C++ applications and services that support the operation, communication, and coordination of unmanned systems. Key responsibilities include creating reliable data flows between software and hardware components, building performance-sensitive and near-real-time applications, and integrating software with APIs, sensors, and networking infrastructure. Working alongside specialists in computer vision, autonomy, electronics, and testing, the engineer also supports integration and system testing on actual drone platforms. Candidates must have **strong professional experience in C++** delivering production-quality code, along with a solid grasp of modern software engineering practices, software architecture, data structures, and algorithms. The role requires experience with multi-component or distributed systems, concurrency, multithreading, and debugging, as well as **professional fluency in English**. A university degree in computer science, software engineering, robotics, or a related field is preferred, though equivalent practical experience is equally welcomed. Experience with Linux development environments, hardware-interfacing software, networking protocols, robotics, drones, or autonomous systems is considered an advantage.
Job description:
Want to build C++ software that helps power the next generation of autonomous and unmanned systems?At Robotto, we build advanced autonomy and software solutions for drones and unmanned systems. Our technology brings together computer vision, C++ software, autonomy, embedded systems and real-world product development.
We are looking for a C++ Software Engineer to join our engineering team and contribute to the software that connects and powers different parts of Robotto's technology platform.This is a hands-on software engineering role for someone who enjoys building reliable systems, solving complex technical problems and seeing their software move beyond development into real-world operation.
The role:
You will develop and maintain C++ software across Robotto's software ecosystem, working on applications and services that support the operation, communication and coordination of our unmanned systems.Depending on the project, your work may span different parts of our platform-from software running alongside our autonomous systems to applications used to configure, control and interact with them.You will work closely with engineers across computer vision, autonomy, embedded software, electronics and testing to develop new capabilities, integrate components and continuously improve the reliability and performance of our systems.
What you will do:
- Design, develop and maintain high-quality software primarily in C++.
- Build software used across our drone and unmanned-systems platform.
- Develop reliable communication and data flows between different software and hardware components.
- Work on performance-sensitive and potentially real-time or near-real-time applications.
- Integrate software with APIs, networking components, sensors and wider system infrastructure.
- Debug complex issues across interconnected software systems and identify root causes.
- Contribute to software architecture and technical design decisions.
- Write maintainable, testable and well-structured production code.
- Participate in code reviews, testing, documentation and continuous improvement of our engineering practices.
- Collaborate closely with computer vision, embedded, autonomy and hardware engineers.
- Support integration and testing on real systems and drone platforms.
What success could look like in your first 3-6 months:
- You have developed a strong understanding of Robotto's software architecture and how the different parts of our platform work together.
- You are contributing production-quality C++ code to our products.
- You have taken ownership of features or components from development through integration and testing.
- You are successfully debugging and solving issues across interconnected systems.
- You are contributing to improved reliability, maintainability and performance of our software.
- You have become a trusted technical partner within the engineering team.
What we are looking forWe are looking for a strong software engineer who enjoys solving complex problems and building software that interacts with real systems.
- Strong professional experience developing production-quality software in C++, with a solid understanding of modern software engineering practices.
- Solid understanding of software architecture, data structures, algorithms and object-oriented design.
- Experience developing multi-component or distributed software systems.
- Experience with networking, inter-process communication, APIs or communication protocols is highly relevant.
- Good understanding of concurrency, multithreading and performance considerations in C++.
- Experience with debugging, testing, version control and modern software development practices.
- Experience with Linux-based development environments is an advantage.
- Experience with robotics, drones, autonomous systems, defence technology or other complex technical products is an advantage, but not a requirement.
- Experience working with software that interfaces with hardware or real-world systems is an advantage.
- Professional fluency in English.
- A degree in computer science, software engineering, robotics or a related field is preferred; equivalent practical experience is equally welcome.
Please apply even if you don't meet every single point. We are interested in what you can bring to the team, your ability to learn and your motivation to work on the challenges we are solving.
Who you are:
Beyond your technical or professional experience, we care about how you work and collaborate.You:
- Are curious and enjoy solving complex problems.
- Take ownership and follow things through.
- Communicate openly about progress, challenges and risks.
- Are comfortable in a growing company where priorities can evolve.
- Enjoy collaborating with people across different disciplines.
- Value testing, learning and continuous improvement.
- Want to contribute rather than simply execute a predefined set of tasks.
Why join Robotto?
Robotto is building advanced autonomy technology for drones and unmanned systems, working at the intersection of software, hardware, computer vision, autonomy and real-world operations.You will be joining Robotto at an exciting stage of our journey as we continue to grow our team, technology and products.
Our teams work across software, computer vision, control, electronics, hardware and real-world testing. This means you will work closely with people from different technical disciplines and see how your work contributes to the wider product.
We are an ambitious and collaborative team, and we value people who take ownership, challenge ideas constructively and want to help build both great technology and a great company.This is not a role where everything is already defined. You will have the opportunity to:
- Work on challenging technology with real-world applications.
- Have meaningful ownership and influence over your area.
- Work closely with talented colleagues across multiple disciplines.
- See your work move from an idea or prototype into real-world use.
- Help shape how we work as the company continues to grow.
