About the role

TYTAN Technologies

tytantechnologiesgmbh's standard text

The PACE is fast. The expectations are high. The contribution matters. Working at TYTAN is more than a job, this is a mission. We push boundaries, think big, and hold ourselves to the highest standard. Our mission and values guide everything we do, and we're looking for people who are driven by ownership, embrace challenges, and are energized by meaningful work. If you're motivated by impact and thrive in dynamic environments, you'll fit right in.

At TYTAN, we aim to set a global standard in autonomous air defense with AI-driven, cost-efficient systems that counter unmanned aerial threats at scale. We protect people. We protect critical infrastructure. We protect European sovereignty.

We are looking for a new team member who is eager to make a real difference! As a Senior Software Architect, you will be responsible for designing the software architecture of our autonomous air defense systems, turning guidance, navigation, and control algorithms into robust, production-grade software that runs reliably on real hardware in mission-critical environments

Your roadmap to make an impact

  • Own the software architecture of our autonomous systems, defining how components, modules, and onboard software fit together from sensor input to effector output
  • Take algorithms developed by our GNC and autonomy specialists and embed them into robust, real-time capable software built on ROS 2, C++, and Python
  • Define interfaces, module boundaries, and architectural standards so embedded, GNC, and ground system teams can build, integrate, and evolve safely
  • Drive quality from design to delivery, through testing, integration, and deployment on hardware, and raise engineering standards through design reviews, code review, and mentoring (including occasional lab or field support)

We care more about strong software engineers than checkbox perfection. If you meet most of these and are motivated to grow into the rest, please still apply and tell us where you are strong and where you would ramp up.

Technical skills

  • Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience, plus 5+ years of professional software development.
  • Proven experience designing and owning complex software architectures, from system decomposition to interface and module design
  • Strong C++ skills for performance-critical and real-time software
  • Strong Python skills for integration, tooling, and prototyping
  • Hands-on experience with ROS 2 (nodes, topics, services, actions) and building robotic software on top of it
  • Solid Linux experience, including development, debugging, and deployment on Linux-based systems
  • Experience integrating algorithms from domain experts (e.g. control, estimation, perception) into maintainable production software. You won't design the algorithms, you'll make them run reliably

Soft Skills

  • Strong software craftsmanship: clear architectural documentation, testing, code review, and the ability to explain technical decisions to engineers across disciplines.
  • Ownership mindset, you take responsibility for the architecture end to end and follow problems across component boundaries until they're solved

Nice to Have

  • Experience with software delivery: build systems, packaging, release management, and deployment to target hardware
  • Familiarity with MAVLink, PX4, ArduPilot, or similar vehicle/autopilot frameworks
  • Prior work in robotics, autonomous systems, aerospace, defense, or industrial control software

  • Shape scalable defense capabilities: Work on solutions built for mass deployment, cost efficiency, resilience, and reliable production at scale
  • Contribute to networked air defense: Help integrate our systems into multi-layered defense architectures alongside sensors, command systems, and effectors
  • Develop for real-world operations: Build capabilities together with end users and improve them continuously based on direct operational feedback
  • Move fast and take ownership: Work in a focused, high-performance team where decisions are made quickly and individual contributions have immediate impact
  • Define a new generation of defense technology: Join early and help shape the products, engineering standards, culture, and direction of a fast-growing deep-tech company
  • Work with an international mission-driven team: Collaborate with experienced specialists united by the goal of creating sovereign and effective security capabilities for Europe

Our Benefits

  • Virtual stock options: Participate in our success through virtual stock options (VSOPs) at the company's current valuation
