About us:
Daedalean AG is the artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomy hub of Destinus Group, a rapidly growing European defense and aerospace company developing the next generation of autonomous drones, effectors, and flight systems. Based in Zurich, the 100+ team develops safety-critical AI for aviation at the intersection of world-class research and real hardware. Its expertise spans computer vision, deep learning, and onboard reasoning – systems that can perceive the world, understand it, and make decisions in real time.
Your role:
- Decompose system requirements into high-level software requirements including necessary information to fully specify what the resulting software should do, such as functional, performance and robustness constraints.
- Design and document software architectures from requirements considering the hardware platform and need to be extensible and robust.
- Define low-level software requirements, considering high-level requirements and architecture, to document how the software should be implemented.
- Write simple, intuitive and maintainable source code.
- Create test cases and procedures for both normal and robustness scenarios to fully verify that the software implementation meets the high-level and low-level requirements.
- Perform analyses on the specification and implementation such as resource usage, traceability coverage, verification coverage and manual verification.
- Support qualification of software tools by creating necessary artifacts to meet supporting guidance.
Requirements
- At least 5 years of C++ embedded software engineering experience and proven applied engineering skills, in projects following well defined software development life cycles
- Hands-on experience in software verification and writing requirement-based tests to break other people’s code
- Experience writing accurate software documentation including requirements and architecture design descriptions
- Very good working knowledge of standard modern software development tools
- Demonstrated capability to constructively work in a team with continuous peer review activities
Benefits
- A team of experienced engineers and researchers, who joined us from most recognized companies and institutions.
- Difficult and interesting problems to solve.
- Hybrid work setting.
- Gym membership.
