Teams at Arkeus

Lead Arkeus’s software engineering function, building teams, standards, technical practices, and career pathways. Provide architectural and technical leadership across development, testing, integration, deployment, and real-time systems. Partner with systems, hardware, AI/ML, computer vision, advanced development, and product teams to deliver reliable software for complex sensing and autonomous platforms. Guide software from concepts through field deployment while balancing performance, security, reliability, technical quality, and delivery needs.

Design and architect production firmware for multi-microcontroller and SoC-based electro-optical systems. Develop drivers, control loops, bootloaders, secure update mechanisms, and hardware interfaces. Collaborate with electronics engineers on board bring-up, debug hardware and firmware interactions, and create automated, HIL, and on-target tests. Own firmware architecture, tooling, quality, security, field issue resolution, and technical standards for mission-critical defense products.

Design, model, optimise, prototype, align, and characterise optical and electro-optical imaging systems for autonomous sensing platforms. Responsibilities include optical tolerancing, sensitivity analysis, stray-light and ghost analysis, component selection, optomechanical integration, image-quality optimisation, manufacturing transition, and collaboration with machine-learning and computer-vision teams. The role requires hands-on optical engineering experience and eligibility for an Australian Defence security clearance.
