About

Company Overview Performance Drone Works (PDW) is building the next generation of tactical robotic systems used across defense, national security, and public safety missions. As we expand into Denver, we are building a new center of engineering excellence to design our new category of tactical robotic systems and the industrial capacity to deliver them, bringing decisive airpower into the hands of every operator. We are not here to make promises; we are here to deliver real systems with real capabilities for real missions. You will join a team of operators, engineers, and builders who solve hard problems with humility and focus. We design and produce multi-mission aerial systems that operators trust to perform in real-world conditions, reliably, repeatedly, and at scale. Our approach is grounded in operator-centered design, rapid iteration from field use, and U.S.-based manufacturing. We operate by a clear set of values: Mission First, Aim Farther, Own It, Win Together. This is how we build advantage and how we help protect our service members, our communities, and our country. What You'll Do Our Software Engineer will: Design, implement, and test software features across one or more product areas. Participate actively in code reviews, providing and integrating constructive feedback. Collaborate with cross-functional teammates including Product, Design, and QA to deliver well-scoped features. Debug and resolve defects in live systems, including occasional field support. Contribute to technical documentation and help maintain engineering standards. Improve system performance by identifying inefficiencies and proposing targeted optimizations. Begin taking ownership of well-scoped technical problems end-to-end. Support continuous integration and deployment pipelines. Qualifications Solid software development skills in C++, with practical knowledge of modern programming standards and patterns. Experience building and shipping features in a professional software environment. Familiarity with embedded Linux, Android, or similar platforms. Working knowledge of UI development concepts; exposure to QML or Qt is a plus. Understanding of software development processes including agile methodologies, code review, and CI/CD. Good written and verbal communication skills with the ability to collaborate across teams. Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field, with 3–5 years of professional software development experience. Preferred Hands-on experience with Qt, QtWidgets, and QML in a professional setting. Experience deploying cross-platform applications (Windows, Linux, and/or Android). Background or personal interest in UAVs, drones, robotics, or aerospace systems. Proficiency with Git workflows including branching, merging, and code review tooling. Experience with CMake, QMake, or other build configuration systems.
