Edge AI Engineer (H/F)

Your mission

Build AI that runs in the real world. On real robots. Under real constraints.

At Autonomous Teaming, we build autonomous robotic systems operating in extreme, GPS-denied environments. Our models run fully on edge hardware (Jetson, FPGA, custom boards), with no cloud, no fallback, no excuses.

We’re looking for an engineer who loves hard problems : real-time inference, low-latency pipelines, CUDA kernels, TensorRT graphs, and deploying ML models directly on hardware.

If you enjoy debugging things that only break on the robot, this role is for you.

Missions :

Own the full pipeline from model to real-time inference on embedded devices:

• Optimize deep neural networks for Jetson, FPGA or ARM boards 
• Apply quantization, pruning, distillation to hit strict FPS, power and memory budgets
• Convert & compile models using TensorRT, ONNX, CUDA, C++
• Build ROS nodes integrating optimized perception into the full robotic system 
• Debug runtime failures, memory leaks, thermal throttling, kernel-level issues
• Benchmark and validate performance directly on hardware 
• Ship models that run reliably in real-world, harsh environments

Your profile

Must-have

• Strong experience in CUDA & C++
• Hands-on work with TensorRT , ONNX, TVM or similar compilers
• Practical experience with quantization / pruning / INT8 / FP16
• Experience deploying models on Jetson / embedded GPUs / ARM / FPGA
• Comfortable with PyTorch , Python, Linux, Git
• Engineer mindset : measurement → optimization → validation

Nice-to-have

• ROS (building nodes , integrating perception stacks)
• Custom accelerators , DSPs or hardware- specific toolchains
• Profilers : Nsight , perf, tegrastats , TensorRT profiler
• Experience in robotics , autonomous systems , aerospace , automotive or defense

Why us?

• You ship code that directly controls real robots
• You work on constrained hardware , where every millisecond and every watt matters
• You solve problems that cloud ML engineers never face
• You own your optimizations end-to- end : from model to field deployment
• You work in a small , high- performing team where ownership is real

If you want a job with clean layers and abstract diagrams, this is not it.

About us

Who we are: Autonomous Teaming is a defence-tech start-up specializing in machine vision solutions. Driven by cutting-edge innovation, our team works on next-generation technologies designed to meet rapidly evolving security challenges.

What we do: We develop systems that enable computers and sensors to operate as coordinated teams, collaborating in real time to counter AI-powered asymmetric threats at scale — including drone swarms and other UXVs. Our mission is to build resilient, intelligent defence capabilities that perform reliably in the most demanding environments.

Who we are: Based in Munich, Berlin, and Toulouse, we are expanding rapidly across Europe with plans to open additional office hubs. We value close, in-person collaboration as the foundation for building complex, high-impact technology, while maintaining flexibility aligned to role and team needs. Our culture is built on ownership, responsibility, and trust — with a shared commitment to growing and building together.
