Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Melbourne

Lead strategic sourcing for defense/aerospace electronics, develop and manage supplier base, negotiate long-term agreements, drive cost reduction and supplier performance reviews, ensure AS9100/FAI compliance, and partner cross-functionally to align material readiness, regulatory compliance (DFARS/ITAR), and supply risk mitigation.

Lead architecture, implementation, and operationalisation of high-performance, real-time and faster-than-real-time distributed simulation systems for mission autonomy. Deliver containerised simulation deployments, integrate defence simulation frameworks, support multi‑agent and system‑of‑systems scenarios, provide technical leadership to cross-functional teams, and enable CI/CD, test automation, and validated simulation environments for customer programs and R&D.

Own and improve C++ build and release workflows for autonomy and vision products: maintain reproducible builds, containerised CI/CD pipelines, edge container images, artefact repositories, and deployment/promotion practices for air-gapped and constrained environments. Collaborate with engineers and sysadmins to ensure reliable edge delivery and troubleshoot pipeline and deployment issues.

Design and implement novel real-time computer vision algorithms in C++, develop and maintain C++ CV pipelines for autonomous systems, integrate deep learning models with perception systems, collaborate with AI/robotics/optical engineers, and keep up with academic research to deliver reliable edge solutions.

Develop and maintain production C++ software for Linux-based edge/embedded platforms (NVIDIA Jetson, ARM). Integrate sensors and peripherals, build calibration/diagnostic tools, optimise performance (latency, throughput, power), debug across software/hardware/OS/networking, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver fieldable autonomy and mission systems.

Design and integrate end-to-end systems for Hivemind Vision and autonomy solutions. Capture and verify requirements, develop MBSE/UML/SysML models, decompose system designs, collaborate with cross-functional teams, improve tooling and automation, and report status and risks to program leadership to support customer programs and R&D.
