Askalon Industries (Lausanne, Switzerland)

We are Askalon—a high-impact Defense Tech firm building ultra-precise acoustic drone detection and neutralization systems. Our mission: Secure the Skies. We need Python Engineers ready to own the software architecture and deployment pipeline for our critical, real-time embedded platforms.

This role is centered on Hyper-Optimized Embedded Software, Real-Time Data Handling, and Edge AI Integration. You will be the authority on deploying robust, low-latency Python systems to custom hardware.

1. Embedded Python Architecture: Design, build, and deploy the core Python framework that orchestrates detection, analysis, and threat response on resource-constrained platforms (Edge devices). Focus on robustness, stability, and speed.
2. Real-Time Data Pipeline: Engineer the software that manages the high-throughput, low-latency data flow from acoustic sensors into the AI classification engine.
3. Edge AI Integration: Implement the deployment and monitoring tooling for our AI models. Ensure seamless integration and validation of model outputs within the core Python system.
4. Deployment & Security: Master the entire software lifecycle from development to secure, OTA deployment on remote, field-deployed hardware.

We are looking for a Python expert who understands the compromises and demands of Embedded and Real-Time systems.

• Core Mastery: Deep, demonstrable expertise in Python for high-performance, real-time applications. Proven ability to write clean, optimized, and testable code in a critical context.
• Embedded Experience: Strong track record working with resource-constrained Linux environments (e.g., Yocto, buildroot) and low-level hardware interfaces. Understanding of concurrency, threading, and multiprocessing in Python.
• Data & Performance: Experience optimizing Python performance in compute-intensive environments, including utilizing NumPy, Pandas, or accelerating sections with native code (C/C++, Rust).
• Mindset: Autonomous, security-aware, and capable of operating with the speed and agility required by an ultra-growth defense tech startup.
• Education: Master’s/Engineer’s degree is the baseline. Demonstrated technical impact is the key differentiator.



Your lines of code directly enable our acoustic defense systems. This is where high-level Python meets mission-critical, low-latency embedded engineering.

If you are the Python Engineer ready to bridge the gap between AI modeling and real-world embedded deployment, apply now.
