ABOUT NODA

NODA is a veteran-owned Series A defense technology company building the orchestration layer for autonomous unmanned systems. Our platform — URZA — coordinates fleets of heterogeneous vehicles across air, sea, and land for defense and intelligence customers. The Integration Engineering team owns the integration layer inside URZA: the framework that lets a new vehicle, a new sensor, or a new third-party autonomy stack become orchestratable. We expect every hire to be mission-driven with strong agency.

THE ROLE

We are seeking a Senior Integration Engineer to lead driver development and vehicle onboarding inside the URZA integration layer. You will design adapters and translation layers connecting URZA to diverse vehicle control protocols, sensor stacks, and third-party autonomy systems. You will own the work that turns "we got the vehicle delivered" into "we're flying it in URZA in HITL by Friday."

This is a software-leaning role with field-validated outputs. Most work is at a desk. A meaningful portion is at the bench or at a range.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Build vehicle drivers for new aerial, ground, and marine platforms inside the URZA integration layer.

- Build sensor, payload, and third-party autonomy adapters; translate vendor data into URZA's world model.

- Own HITL test plans and integration tests; drive new platforms from delivered to URZA-controlled before live test.

- Partner with vehicle OEMs, sensor providers, and autonomy partners on integration design and debugging.

- Build shared libraries and scaffolding that compress time-to-integrate; mentor mid-level Integration Engineers.

WHAT THIS ROLE DOES NOT OWN

URZA platform development outside the integration layer (Core Engineering); customer-facing engagement delivery (Solution Engineering); field hardware readiness and RPIC coverage (Field Operations); distributed systems runtime architecture (Systems Engineering).

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

- 5+ years of software engineering, with 2+ years on integrations, drivers, middleware, or robotics software.

- Strong proficiency in Python, C++, or Rust.

- Hands-on with vehicle control protocols and autopilot software (MAVLink, ROS / ROS2, ArduPilot or PX4); can debug at the message level.

- Pub-sub middleware fluency and HITL workflow experience.

- Due to the nature of the position, U.S. citizenship is required due to ITAR regulations, along with the ability to obtain and maintain a DoD security clearance.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Hands-on with autonomous systems or unmanned vehicles (UAS, UGV, USV, UUV).

- Zenoh or comparable pub-sub middleware (DDS, ROS2 RMW); routing and key-expression depth.

- Sensor integration depth (LIDAR, cameras, IMUs, GNSS) or autonomy algorithm depth (planning, controls, perception, SLAM).

- Prior defense, autonomy, or robotics company experience.

- Active security clearance.

SKILLS & ATTRIBUTES

- Strong software engineer first; treats integration as engineering, not scripting.

- Systems thinker across vehicle, network, middleware, and orchestration layers.

- Structured debugger across hardware-software boundaries.

- Documentation-disciplined.

- Pragmatic with vendor partners; pushes back when partner-side decisions create downstream risk.

In addition to an opportunity to take part in an innovative, collaborative and fast-growing business with a highly motivated and skilled team, we also take pride in taking care of our employees.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
