We are looking for a Backend Engineer to help turn advanced drones, sensors, payloads, and third-party technologies into reliable, field-ready capabilities that operators can trust. You will integrate drones, sensors and other hardware into the eyesAtop platform, write production-quality code in Java, C++, Python and related systems, and work directly with vendors, pilots, hardware engineers, and product teams. You will debug across software, networking, devices, APIs, field behavior, and operator workflows, and test in simulation, lab and field environments. You will own integrations end to end, from first connection to deployed capability.
