Description

• Develop embedded Linux software and complex algorithms such as sensor fusion, Kalman filters, and PID controllers.
• Model predictive control and implement real‑time GPS‑aided navigation, path planning, and control systems.
• Write, modify, debug, test, and document C/C++ code for embedded and computer applications.
• Create and maintain software requirements, designs, and test plans to verify compliance.
• Provide maintenance and support for existing software as needed.

Requirements

TPS is seeking a passionate Senior Software Engineer with hands‑on experience in real‑time systems and autonomous vehicle development. The role involves developing quality embedded‑Linux software, creating and maintaining complex mathematical algorithms such as sensor fusion within Kalman filters and PID controllers, and modelling predictive control. The engineer will also develop and document software requirements, design specifications, and testing procedures, as well as write, modify, and debug C/C++ code for embedded and computer applications.

Candidates must have an advanced mathematics or physical sciences background, typically a bachelor’s degree, and extensive experience in real‑time systems programming and C/C++ development. Experience in sensor‑fusion, control algorithms, GPS‑aided navigation, path planning, and knowledge of Linux kernel or device‑driver development is highly desirable. Strong verbal and written communication, self‑motivation, autonomous work style, and excellent problem‑solving, organisational, and analytical skills are required.

The position offers the chance to join a team of highly skilled engineers who thrive on innovation, think beyond conventional boundaries, and live and breathe engineering. Applicants must hold Australian permanent residency or citizenship. Topcon collaborates, creates, and distributes disruptive technologies that improve processes, machine automation, and data services across infrastructure and agriculture, aiming for a sustainable future.

• Hold a bachelor’s degree in mathematics or physical sciences with strong advanced mathematics background.
• Possess extensive real‑time systems programming and C/C++ development experience.
• Experience with sensor‑fusion, control algorithms, Linux kernel/device‑driver development, and hardware‑level programming is advantageous.
• Demonstrated ability to work autonomously with strong communication, analytical, and problem‑solving skills.
• Must have Australian permanent residency or citizenship.
