Hard problems, real deployment, short iteration loops, and the people doing the work own the spec.LocAustin, TX[ WHY 9 MOTHERS ]Why this team. Why now.If you've ever shipped hardware inside a slow program of record and thought we should be doing this in months, not years — this is the team for you.01The work is the perk.Autonomous perception, terminal engagement, manufacturable hardware — designed and built in one room. You'll own a system, not a Jira ticket.02Short loops, real telemetry.Range time, range data, range fixes. We instrument what we build and we iterate on what the data tells us — not on what the roadmap deck promised six months ago.03Operators are users.Mass, setup time, and human factors are first-class specs. The people carrying it are in the loop from week one — not at acceptance testing.04Built to be afforded.Cost-per-shot, serviceability, and manufacturability are design constraints. We're building weapons the U.S. and its allies can afford to use at scale.[ A DAY ON THE LINE ]What the work looks like.01Range setup. Coffee.
