Firestorm Labs - Democratize the fight with radically-affordable, mission-adaptable power for air, land, and sea. Backed by NEA.
About the role
Firestorm builds modular autonomous aircraft designed to adapt across missions, payloads, and deployment environments. Firestorm OS is the common software platform that enables those aircraft. It provides the Linux-based services, communications, media, hardware interfaces, SDKs, and system capabilities used across Firestorm aircraft and their variants.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Strong C++ programming ability and software engineering fundamentals
- Experience working across multiple layers of the software stack
- Strong Linux experience, including command-line workflows, debugging, and system administration tasks
- Experience with networking fundamentals including TCP/IP, UDP, routing, and network troubleshooting
More about this role
At Firestorm, we are building the future of expeditionary defense manufacturing and autonomous systems. Modern conflict has exposed a fundamental problem: the systems needed most by operators are often too expensive, too slow to produce, and too difficult to sustain at scale. Firestorm exists to change that.
We develop mission-adaptable aerial systems and deployable manufacturing infrastructure designed to put capability directly into the hands of the warfighter. From modular unmanned aircraft to xCell — our deployable microfactory — our goal is to make defense systems rapidly deployable, adaptable, and producible at the point of need.
We are looking for builders, operators, and problem-solvers who want to work on meaningful technology with real-world impact.
