- Manage tasks and workflows using Jira, supporting agile development cycles and sprint planning.
- Collaborate with software, hardware, and QA teams to identify integration issues and mitigate release risks.
- Support automated build, versioning, and release pipelines for reproducible and reliable software delivery.
What You Bring
- Academic background in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical field
- Experience in software release management, configuration management, DevOps, or similar engineering functions
- Strong understanding of ROS2, C++, and robotics middleware integration
- Experience working with Git, CI/CD pipelines, automated builds, and modern software delivery workflows
- Familiarity with agile development processes and tools such as Jira and sprint-based planning
- Strong organizational skills with attention to detail and configuration consistency across complex systems
- Experience creating and maintaining technical documentation for engineering and operational teams
- Strong communication and collaboration skills across multidisciplinary environments
