Backed by Sequoia and Lux.
About the role
You'll join a small, high-output engineering team building software systems for defense technology products. Our stack spans embedded systems, real-time control, cloud services, and data pipelines — the right candidate will own significant surface area across more than one of these. We move fast, ship frequently, and hold a high bar for reliability and correctness.
What they're looking for
- 7+ years of professional software engineering, with demonstrable ownership of production systems
- Strong fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, concurrency, and systems design
- Fluency in at least one of: Python, Go, Rust, C/C++, or TypeScript — and genuine comfort picking up new languages
- Experience designing and maintaining distributed systems or service-oriented architectures
- Strong debugging instincts — you find hard bugs methodically, not by luck
- Working English, written and verbal

- Design, build, and own core software systems end-to-end — from architecture decisions through production deployment.
- Write clean, testable, well-documented code that other engineers can build on confidently.
- Lead technical design reviews; identify failure modes before they reach production.
- Collaborate closely with hardware, mechanical, and systems engineers — understand the constraints their work imposes on yours.
- Own reliability: define SLOs, build observability, respond to incidents, and drive root-cause resolution.
- Hire and mentor junior engineers and raise the technical bar of the team through code review and shared standards.
- 7+ years of professional software engineering, with demonstrable ownership of production systems.
