Jobs at Sphere Defense

Design, implement and own production-grade perception pipelines (vision and multi-modal sensors) for autonomous countermeasures. Integrate and fuse EO/IR, IMU, radar and other sensors, develop and train ML models, optimize code for resource-constrained platforms, work hands-on with hardware, produce design documentation, and mentor team members.

Design, develop, document and test production-grade perception pipelines for detection, identification, and tracking. Integrate and fuse multi-modal sensor data (EO/IR, IMU, radar, lasers), work hands-on with hardware, mentor team members, and produce optimized C++/Python code for autonomous countermeasure systems.

Design and implement testing, alignment, and calibration procedures and jigs for aerospace-grade electromechanical products. Develop companion jig software, establish quality and repeatability standards, execute end-of-line testing and outgoing inspections, maintain manufacturing control plans, and support partner production startups through training and travel.

Program and operate 5-axis mill-turn CNC machines to produce complex, tight-tolerance aerospace-grade parts. Convert CAD files into CAM toolpaths, interpret drawings and GD&T, inspect machined components, maintain CAM program documentation, and ensure CNC equipment operates within tolerance. The role requires experience with aluminum, steel, and ideally titanium or Inconel, along with CAM software, post-processors, HEIDENHAIN and FANUC controllers, and regulated-industry manufacturing.

Design, develop, and test high-performance, low-latency firmware for autonomous countermeasure systems. Lead board bring-up, device drivers, sensor integration, SIL/HIL CI/CD, debugging, and documentation. Mentor team members and collaborate with hardware and system teams onsite in Brussels.

Design, develop, and test low-latency, reliable firmware for autonomous countermeasure systems. Perform board bring-up, device driver and BSP development, sensor integration, hardware debugging with lab tools, implement SIL/HIL CI/CD pipelines, and mentor team members.

Manage multinational defense programs involving industry partners, NATO, government ministries, and academic institutions. Develop proposals, budgets, schedules, and program documentation; coordinate activities to meet quality and timeline requirements; support engineering test campaigns; and travel to meetings and testing in Europe and abroad. The role also mentors team members and requires strong stakeholder communication, procurement knowledge, and familiarity with missile systems and project management tools.

Designs, develops, tests, and debugs complex analog and high-speed digital electronic boards and systems for autonomous countermeasures. Responsibilities include system architecture, board bring-up, sensor and peripheral integration, design reviews, validation and certification, production documentation, troubleshooting, and mentoring. The role requires hands-on prototyping, laboratory testing, PCB design, component selection, and collaboration with external manufacturing and testing partners.

Design, develop, test, and optimize high-performance embedded software for autonomous flying systems. Bring up hardware, integrate sensors, debug mission-critical workloads, establish CI/CD and mentor teammates while ensuring low-latency processing and system reliability.

Design, implement, validate and tune flight control systems for high-speed autonomous countermeasure vehicles. Build HIL/SIL simulations, work hands-on with hardware, document designs, mentor teammates, and integrate sensors and flight controllers to deliver production-grade autonomous flight systems.

Design, implement, and test high-performance autonomous software and perception for flying countermeasures. Integrate sensors, build simulations/digital twins, work close to hardware, establish CI/CD, document designs, and mentor teammates.

Design, implement, and test high-performance embedded software for autonomous countermeasures. Bring up hardware, integrate sensors, develop device drivers and user-space applications, establish CI/CD, debug systems, and mentor team members.
