DevOps Engineer Embedded Systems (m/f/d)
How do you stop a drone in mid-air? Our Rocken partner develops and produces intelligent interception systems for unmanned aerial vehicles. With electrically powered Sentinel systems that reach speeds of up to 230 km/h, the company protects critical infrastructures from unwanted intruders from the air. The solutions combine autonomous flight control, intelligent seekers, and modular design – from pure interception to controlled removal to safety zones. The focus is always on minimal collateral damage. The team works at the interface of defence technology, robotics, and airspace surveillance. Flat hierarchies and short decision-making paths characterise the daily work routine. Are you ready to work on systems that redefine security? Then our Rocken partner looks forward to your application.Role:
