About Us:
Emergent is a Delft-based company dedicated to revolutionizing autonomous aerial systems for defense and emergency response. We develop and deploy software for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) that enables platform-independent collaborative autonomy, and we build the Counter-UAS (C-UAS) systems that detect, track, and defeat hostile drones in denied and cluttered environments. Our technology leverages decentralized swarming algorithms and multi-sensor fusion to tackle real-world challenges at scale.
We have successfully attracted significant capital and grants, and we are working with clients and strategic partners across Europe and allied countries — strong signals of market traction. Backed by experienced advisors, we offer the chance to join a 20-person team pushing the boundaries of autonomy and counter-drone defense, with real autonomy and influence over what we build.
What you will do:
As a UAV Robotics Engineer, with a focus on autonomy and swarming algorithms for fixed-wing UAVs, you will play a pivotal role in advancing our capabilities for autonomous and swarming flight. You will be part of a team of ten people and will have significant autonomy and influence in the decisions we make. Your self-starting capabilities will be crucial, as you will have the freedom to lead initiatives and shape the direction of our projects.
Your responsibilities will involve:
- Developing intelligent, platform autonomy algorithms, with a focus on UAV control, avoidance, GNSS-denied and path planning algorithms.
- Developing intelligent, collaborative autonomy algorithms for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and manned-unmanned teaming applications.
- Developing software from prototype to a productized module in our Core OS.
- Develop advanced simulation environments for various types of UAVs.
- Testing, V&V and deployment of your algorithms on real-world UAV swarms.
What you bring:
- BSc or MSc degree in Aerospace, Mechanical Engineering, or similar.
- 2+ years of experience in a relevant field.
- Strong background in (aerospace) vehicle dynamics and control, sensor fusion and pose estimation.
- Proficiency in Linux/WSL, C++, Python and experience with ROS2 for robotics development.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to addressing challenges.
- Effective communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a dynamic team environment.
- Excellent verbal communications in English and/or Dutch.
- EU and/or NATO citizenship required.
Nice to haves:
- Experience with GPU acceleration.
- Experience with industry standard communications links.
- Experience with platform autonomy algorithm design.
- Experience with Docker, PX4, Ardupilot.
- Familiarity with drone hardware and robotic systems integration.
What We Offer:
- Competitive base salary (4000-6000 euro) with 25 vacation days.
- Opportunity to work on groundbreaking swarm technology with exciting applications.
- Collaborative and supportive work environment at our offices in Delft with opportunities for growth and learning.
- Full-time onsite.
- Work travel to EU, North-America and Ukraine.
- Commute compensation.
Application materials (combine PDFs and submit in CV entry):
- CV including portfolio.
- Motivation letter that at least contains a description of something you have built/designed/programmed during school/uni/work or in your personal time.
