Senior Software Engineer position focusing on low-latency control systems, specifically multi-axis movement to search for and track objects dynamically using feedback loops. Initially you will work on the core algorithms before deploying on embedded Linux or microcontroller based platforms in C or C++.The role offers significant autonomy across architecture and implementation, alongside complex challenges involving geometry, coordinate systems, and real-time astronomical tracking.We are happy to consider any software engineers who have relevant robotics/control projects and good software development skills. The ideal candidate will have experience developing algorithms to control multiple motors or servo mechanisms using closed-loop feedback, including PID/PI tuning and position or velocity control.Senior Software Engineer essential skills Commercial software engineering experience with C or C++Practical experience in control or roboticsA sound understanding of things like gearing, inertia, friction, backlash, acceleration, overshoot, oscillation and stability.A degree in engineering or equivalent qualification or experience.
