  • Acoustic Integration: Work closely with the Acoustic team to integrate microphone arrays, ensuring signal integrity for low-noise, multichannel audio acquisition.

Responsibilities

  • Backed by top-tier investors, we develop AI powered machines designed to intercept and neutralize Group 1/sUAS threats in real-time.
  • While others build for "awareness" or "long-term research," we build for the immediate survival of those in harm's way.
  • You will be responsible for the "nervous system" of our machines, from high-speed PCB design to complex sensor integration.
  • Your contributions directly drive the value of your stake in the company.
  • Mission-Critical Work: We don't build for "what if." We build systems the Department of War actively needs to counter immediate, real-world threats.
