Syntronic is seeking a skilled Software Developer to work on UAV-based geophysics technologies. The Developer will contribute to developing cutting-edge solutions for geophysical data automation, real-time analysis, and workflow optimization.
What you'll do
- Design and implement automation tools to support semi-automated geophysics workflows, including data ingestion, preprocessing, and anomaly flagging.
- Develop robust C++ and Python modules for high-throughput data pipelines, optimizing for performance, scalability, and maintainability.
- Design and integrate algorithms for real-time anomaly detection, statistical correction, and automated reporting, leveraging concepts from signal processing and machine learning.
- Optimize geophysical data processing pipelines for multi-threaded, parallelized, and distributed execution environments.
- Implement QA/QC automation to validate geophysical datasets against defined integrity thresholds, ensuring reproducibility and minimizing operator intervention.
- Collaborate with geophysicists, data scientists, and UAV specialists to align software solutions with field operations.
- Integrate software solutions with UAV-based sensor payloads, ensuring efficient data transfer, synchronization, and on-board preprocessing where applicable.
What you'll need
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Software Development, Computer Science, or a closely related technical field.
- Strong proficiency in C++, Python, and data pipeline optimization
- Experience with multi-threaded programming, performance profiling, and optimization of real-time or near-real-time systems.
- Familiarity with signal processing, machine learning, or geospatial data handling is an asset.
- Familiarity with signal processing techniques (e.g., filtering, spectral analysis) and machine learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn).
- Understanding of geospatial data handling (GIS libraries, coordinate reference systems, spatial databases).
- Exposure to UAV systems, embedded platforms, or edge computing for sensor integration.
- Strong problem-solving, debugging, and version control (Git) practices in collaborative environments.
What will make us REALLY love you
- Experience with distributed computing, cloud-based data pipelines, or containerized deployments (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker).
- Knowledge of FPGA or GPU acceleration for real-time data processing workloads.
- Familiarity with scientific libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, GDAL, or OpenCV.
- Experience in geoscience or remote sensing applications, particularly with geophysical survey data.
- Background in integrating heterogeneous sensor streams (IMU, GNSS, magnetometers, etc.) into unified processing frameworks.
