Sensor Fusion Engineer – Multi-Sensor Integration (m/f/d)

We are developing a next-generation C-UAS Multi-Agent System that integrates sensors, effectors, and multiple agents into a coherent system for monitoring, coordination, and control. Our system combines data from radar, EO/IR cameras, passive RF sensors, OSINT, and other sources to detect, track, and understand objects and activities in real time.

We are looking for a Sensor Fusion Engineer who enjoys working hands-on with real sensor data and takes ownership from sensor integration through algorithms, testing, and deployment. You will turn heterogeneous and imperfect sensor data into reliable tracks and actionable situational awareness.

Tasks

Develop and implement multi-sensor fusion and tracking algorithms

Integrate data from radar, cameras, passive RF, OSINT, and other sensors

Develop methods for sensor registration, calibration, synchronization, data association, and track fusion

Work with real-world sensor data, including recording, replay, visualization, and analysis

Investigate sensor and tracking problems and identify their root causes

Develop tools and processes to evaluate and improve fusion performance

Integrate fusion components with the wider C-UAS system and downstream applications

Take ownership of components from concept through implementation, integration, testing, and deployment

Requirements

Essential

Professional experience with C++

Practical experience in sensor fusion, perception, tracking, or multi-sensor integration

Hands-on experience working with real sensor data

Experience with multi-object tracking and methods such as Kalman filters, EKF/UKF, or related approaches

Pragmatic engineering mindset and ability to solve problems independently

Strong sense of ownership and initiative

Ability to work effectively across disciplines

Fluent in English ; German is a plus

Valuable

Experience with radar, EO/IR, passive RF, ADS-B, or OSINT

Experience with track-to-track and measurement-level fusion

Experience with geospatial data and coordinate transformations

Experience with ROS2

Skills for data analysis and visualization

Experience with Linux, Docker, Git, and CI/CD

Experience with autonomous systems, robotics, aerospace, defense, C-UAS , or other mission-critical systems

Experience with simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, and field testing

What we are looking for

You like getting close to the actual data and the actual system . You enjoy investigating unexpected sensor behavior, debugging complex problems, and turning experiments into robust production software.

You are proactive and take ownership . When something does not work, you investigate it, identify the problem, drive the solution, and verify that it works in the real world.
