Sr. C++ Software Developer

At 4AG Robotics, we’re wired for solving tough problems - and mushroom harvesting with robots is about as tough as it gets. We solve the critical labour shortage for farms by building robots that pick, trim and pack mushrooms.

We are a team of builders that like to move fast and embrace the uncertain process of innovation - because every breakthrough comes with a few mistakes along the way. Our robots are already working on six of the world’s largest mushroom farms - and this is just the beginning.

If you love tech, thrive on innovation, and have a passion for building and bringing it to life in the real world in a commercial space, you’ll find your spot here. Join us and help reshape the future of farming with grit, brains, and a team that actually gets things done.

The Opportunity

Step into a unique role at the forefront of innovation in a fast-moving startup shaping the future of agriculture. As a Senior C++ Software Developer, you’ll help build the intelligence that powers our autonomous robotics platform. You’ll work across the full software development lifecycle, from architecture to deployment, contributing to a system that blends computer vision, real-time data processing, and cutting‑edge hardware. This is your chance to influence the direction of an industry‑changing product while writing exceptional, high‑performance code.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you will :

• Collaborate in an agile environment alongside developers, designers, ML / DL engineers, project managers, and hardware teams.
• Debug complex C++ systems on Linux platforms to quickly diagnose and resolve technical challenges.
• Design, develop, and maintain applications that rely on middleware messaging for distributed communication.
• Integrate machine‑learning and computer‑vision models into the robot’s software stack, ensuring seamless operation and real‑time performance.
• Build and maintain APIs and services dedicated to on‑robot vision processing.
• Develop and maintain data pipelines and systems for diagnostics, dataset generation, and model training workflows.
• Optimize computer vision algorithms for speed, accuracy, and reliability.
• Tailor software solutions for edge devices and industrial PCs in close collaboration with hardware teams.
• Leverage and extend open‑source software, contributing to a collaborative development culture.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior developers.
