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.

[Seoul Robotics Talent Acquisition e-mail: talent@seoulrobotics.org] ## About Seoul Robotics ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Seoul Robotics provides infrastructure-based autonomous driving technology to automate vehicle movement in factories, logistics hubs, and ports. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B) - **Headquarters**: Seoul, South Korea - **Founded**: 14 August 2017 - **Founders**: HanBin Lee (CEO) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Autonomous driving technology for logistics and industrial applications. - **Target customers**: B2B – automotive OEMs (e.g., BMW, Volvo, Mercedes-Benz), logistics operators, port authorities, and large-scale manufacturing facilities. - **Mission or purpose**: To bring reliable and robust autonomous driving to logistics and industrial use cases, enabling societies with aging workforces to prosper without interruption. ## Products & Services - **AVM (Automated Vehicle Marshalling)**: An infrastructure-based autonomous driving platform that automates the entire vehicle movement process inside factories and large logistics hubs. It controls hundreds of vehicles simultaneously with centimeter-level precision and is vehicle-agnostic (works with any make, model, or powertrain). The platform has obtained global certification and is commercially deployable. - **ATS (Advanced Technology Solutions)**: A sensor-fusion solution using LiDAR, cameras, and machine learning to detect vehicles, trains, pedestrians, and analyze traffic events. It provides real-time and recorded data for safety and efficiency. - **AYT (Autonomous Yard Technology)**: A service that retrofits yard tractors in ports with autonomous driving capabilities, enabling safe and effective operations in complex environments day and night, even in adverse weather. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed. - **Key Metric**: Total funding of $35M+ (Series B as of 2025). Annual revenue reported at KRW 4.2B (approx. $3.2M USD). - **Notable Investors/Partners**: BMW, Volvo, Mercedes-Benz, Mando, Qualcomm, Woowa Bros. (alumni connections). - **Growth Signals**: 30% year-over-year headcount growth (51 employees), active job postings increasing monthly (+50%) and quarterly (+140%), international offices in Korea, Germany, and the US, and clients across four continents. ## Competitive Advantages - **Infrastructure-based approach**: Unlike vehicle-only autonomy, Seoul Robotics’ AVM platform manages entire fleets via infrastructure, enabling scalable, multi-vehicle coordination. - **Vehicle-agnostic compatibility**: Works with any car, truck, or yard tractor regardless of make, model, or powertrain (electric, hydrogen, diesel). - **Proven commercial deployment**: First to earn global certification for infrastructure-based autonomous marshalling; already deployed in real-world environments. - **Self-learning AI**: The system continuously learns and improves from operational data, maintaining high precision and reliability. ## Strategic Focus - **Addressing workforce shortages**: Targeting aging societies in Asia (especially Japan and South Korea) by automating logistics tasks that are difficult to staff. - **Industrial and logistics expansion**: Prioritizing factories, yards, and ports as immediate high-impact markets, with plans to scale across more geographies and use cases. - **Continued R&D**: Investing in AI, sensor fusion, and fleet orchestration to maintain a technology lead. ## Why Work Here - **Global & diverse team**: Over 20% of employees come from international backgrounds; 13 nationalities represented in headquarters.
