Senior Perception Engineer

Position:
Senior Perception Engineer — Aerial Vision, Tracking & 3D Geometry

Company:
Twentyfour Industries

Location:
Germany, Munich

Employment type:
Full Time

Work Arrangement:
Hybrid

Short Summary:
We’re looking for a Senior Perception Engineer to co-own and advance the production perception stack for autonomous drones. You’ll develop real-time C++ systems that combine learned visual detections with multi-object tracking, camera geometry, vehicle state, and monocular 3D target estimation.

Responsibilities:
- Develop and maintain production C++ perception components for camera-based detection, tracking, target localization, and trajectory estimation on autonomous drones.
- Improve multi-object tracking, data association, motion models, filtering, uncertainty propagation, track management, and fusion of outputs.
- Estimate target position and motion in world coordinates by fusing monocular vision with vehicle-state and navigation data.
- Integrate and optimize neural-network models in the production C++ pipeline using ONNX, TensorRT, CUDA, and NVIDIA Jetson.
- Analyze recorded flight data and diagnose field failures.
- Define software interfaces and engineering standards, conduct design and code reviews, and collaborate with various teams.

Requirement:
- 5+ years experience building production C++ perception and state-estimation software for robotic or aerial systems.
- Experience with tracking, Kalman filtering, sensor fusion, ROS 2, CUDA, TensorRT, and NVIDIA Jetson.
- Strong programming skills and experience with performance-sensitive production software.
- Familiarity with aerial/drone perception, target tracking, and autonomous aircraft.

Benefits:
- Competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits, and equity options.
- Flexible hours, remote options, and relocation support.
- Steep learning curve for juniors, strategic influence and leadership opportunities for seniors.
- International team culture built on exchange, trust, and shared success.
