As a child, did you ever dream of building robots? We did.

At Dexory, we're developing advanced software powered by cutting-edge robots that are transforming the very face of global logistics. With infectious enthusiasm, our unique blend of disciplines work in harmony to produce results at pace. From hardware and manufacturing to software, AI and commercial, we're one team – one heart – that beats, learns and grows together.

We're only interested in the best ideas, no matter where they're from. We're doers. Game-changers.

Out-of-the-box thinkers who put merit before all else. A group of ambitious and disciplined individuals who are passionate about turning theory into rubber, metal and results.

Only with immense heat and pressure are diamonds formed, and our high-performance, high-reward culture isnʼt for everyone. We bend the rules. We say it as it is. We donʼt quit. We keep ego and bureaucracy in check to help our operation stay agile and performing at its peak. We're a place where careers are defined, and we'll give you all the tools youʼll need to make your mark.

This opportunity doesnʼt present itself everyday. This is your chance to be a part of something truly revolutionary.

The foundations for success have been laid, but we're only just getting started. Are you ready for the fight?

*We value the right attitude, humility and we're as interested in your character as we are in your talent. Please apply, even if you feel you only meet part of our listed criteria. Diversity drives innovation and we offer an international and friendly work environment with an energetic company culture.

What does this role involve?

As a Senior Software Engineer (C++) you will play a key role in designing and building the software platforms that deliver data and insights to our customers. You will work on a small team and focus primarily on the systems that we use to collect and analyze data about the environments we operate in – using LiDAR scanners, cameras, and other sensors to model the environment and extract useful insights. 

You’ll have the opportunity to work on projects such as building distributed systems for  collection of data from sensors, processing data using a variety of algorithms to extract insights, and designing system architectures for processing high volumes of data in real time.

As a senior member of the software engineering team, you will share responsibility for both implementation and system design of new projects, as well as updates, improvements, and maintenance of existing systems.

We’re still an early-stage company with a technically complex system, so we’re looking for a motivated individual who can help move the product forward. The ability to think on your feet, collaborate with other highly technical teams, and take an open-minded approach to problem solving are essential.

Requirements

You will need:

• 6+ years of experience shipping software products

• Good knowledge of the Linux platform generally

• Experience with building high-performance systems using modern C++ techniques

• Experience with agile workflows, automated testing, and continuous deployment

• Excellent communication, collaboration, and teamworking skills

It would also be helpful to have:

• Previous experience with developing software for hardware devices or robots

• Knowledge of other development tools, languages and frameworks

• Experience with computer vision, point cloud data, 3D data or other visual information processing.

• Experience in architecting and designing large-scale, end-to-end systems

We are especially interested in candidates who are flexible in their approach to technology, and willing to learn and use suitable technologies and frameworks as appropriate for specific tasks.

Example projects

You’ll work on a variety of different projects as we continue to build our platform. To give you an idea of what kind of work you’ll be doing, some recent projects our team has worked on include:

• Building a data processing pipeline to capture frames from multiple 3D LiDAR scanners and reconstruct a 3D environment for analysis.

• Designing and developing a system to collect images from multiple cameras and aggregate them into one cohesive image in real-time.

• Building a system to run real-time machine vision algorithms and ML models over high-resolution camera images.

Benefits

Starting from the interview process and continuing into your career with us, you will be working by our four Operating Principles:

• Performance: High standards, outstanding results,

• Impact: Big challenges, bigger results

• Commitment: All in, every time

• One team: One mission, shared success

Joining our team and company isn't just about expertise; it's about embracing uncertainty with ambition. We're crafting world-changing solutions, fueled by a passion to redefine what's possible. We will look for you to help create and shape the future of logistics solutions through our products, our culture and our shared vision. 

You will also receive:

• Private healthcare via Bupa with 24/7 medical helpline 

• Life insurance

• Income protection 

• Pension: 4+% employee with option to opt into salary exchange, 5% employer
