Fiducial is a young but fast-growing deep-tech start-up with big ambitions at the frontier of autonomy, perception, and defence. We develop and deploy software for on-board UAV 3D vision in military applications. Our software solutions are built for scalability first, using low-cost and widely available sensors and compute.
Job Responsibility:
Wide ownership over some of the core functionalities of Fiducial Scout: our software for full on-board situational awareness for UAVs
Responsible for the short-to-medium-term development roadmap
Requirements:
Good understanding of, and experience with, modern C++
Real-time software development experience such as game, simulation, robotics or embedded development
Second-nature familiarity with 3D reconstruction concepts: projective geometry, bundle adjustment, PnP, triangulation, feature description, image matching
Experience with building photogrammetry, augmented reality, robotics or visual (inertial) odometry (VIO) solutions
Experience with 3D Gaussian Splatting or derivatives
Deep intuition for transform trees and pose representations used in game engines, computer graphics, and robotics
Hands-on experience calibrating camera intrinsics/extrinsics
Experience ensuring timestamp integrity and tight time alignment across sensors
Experience with GPU programming (CUDA, OpenCL) and graphics pipelines (Vulkan, OpenGL)
Experience with AI coding agents and prompt engineering
A high degree of autonomy, determination and grit
Full time availability (40 hours)
Nice to have:
Experience integrating software on UAVs (onboard constraints, deployment/debugging in flight-test conditions)
awareness of the zeitgeist in the current 3D vision academic literature
What we offer:
25 vacation days per year
Reimbursed travel expenses and company laptop
(Really) flexible working hours and option to work from home 2 days per week when in the Netherlands
Working in an international, world-class team of engineers and entrepreneurs
Large freedom in how you work and implement solutions
The opportunity to take technical risks, to implement stuff the ‘right’ way and to iterate quickly with tight feedback loops
Responsibility over the things you implement
Traveling abroad to test the solutions you built in relevant environments
