This is a high-impact role for technical leaders who are comfortable working across architecture, implementation, and long-term system health. You will go beyond individual feature implementation to design scalable, robust, and high-performance system architectures. This is not a support role; you will make design decisions that affect the entire engineering organization, identify structural risks before they become recurring problems, and turn ambiguous technical challenges into robust software that scales across thousands of sensors and vehicles.   Responsibilities Design and lead the development of robust, scalable system-level software and middleware in Modern C++ to support complex autonomy and perception stacks. Own and evolve foundational infrastructure including process management, resource isolation, and runtime stability across our deployed platforms. Drive safety and reliability engineering by implementing fault detection, graceful degradation, and system-level testing to ensure continuous operation under stress. Design and maintain data pipeline and streaming infrastructure for the efficient transport and delivery of high-bandwidth sensor data at scale. Identify and resolve complex system-wide bottlenecks by leading profiling and optimization efforts for CPU, GPU, memory, and network utilization. Facilitate technical mentorship by leading code and design reviews, establishing best practices for C++ development, and raising the technical bar across the organization. Collaborate closely with Perception, Motion, and Infra teams to define and enforce clean system interfaces and make practical engineering tradeoffs   Qualifications Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field. At least 4 + years of experience and above with strong proficiency in Modern C++ with a deep understanding of multi-threading and concurrency. Demonstrate a mastery of Linux systems with an in-depth understanding of IPC, networking, and system calls, combined with expertise in profiling and performance analysis tools. Possess strong problem-solving skills with experience debugging complex system-level issues in production or production-like environments. Apply sound engineering judgment to turn ambiguous requirements into well-structured software with a strong bias toward ownership. Business English proficiency for collaboration in a multinational team.   Preferred Qualifications Experience with real-time systems , autonomous driving architectures , or safety-critical systems. Familiarity with high-performance middleware or shared memory IPC for low-latency system tuning. Experience in Hardware-Software Co-design or customizing Linux distributions for edge computing deployments. In-depth knowledge of build systems and scaling CI/CD pipelines to improve long-term code health and maintainability. Background in fault tolerance, watchdog design, or formal reliability practices in fast-moving product environment.   Recruitment Process Application Review - Recruiter Screening - Tech Interviews - CEO Screening - Reference Check -Offer     (Please be aware that the recruitment processes & schedules may be changed depending on the job and/or other circumstances) Benefits ▷ Diversity - International team (10+ nationalities) ▷ Flexible work hours  ▷ Hybrid work  ▷ 10 days of paid sick leave ▷ Daily meal support ▷ No dress code ▷ Premium health check (Once a year) ▷ Snacks and premium coffee Seoul Robotics stands for an open and respectful corporate culture because we believe diversity helps us to find new perspectives.
