Five founding roles. Open across India. Fully remote.
We hire small numbers of senior people who have done the work — engineers, designers, and operators who can architect entire surfaces, not staff a function. Founding equity, deep technical scope, and the chance to design the connective intelligence beneath India's next decade of defence.
Two travel windows per quarter for in-person work. Otherwise: write, ship, deploy, from wherever you live in India.
Build the spine of the decision graph — the distributed system that ingests heterogeneous sensor streams under contested bandwidth and composes them into one coherent picture.
Our decision graph is the connective tissue of the company. It receives multi-modal sensor streams from radar, EO/IR, SIGINT, and acoustic platforms — composes them into a single decision-grade picture — and continues to do so when the upstream link drops, when nodes go dark, when timing is adversarial. You will own its architecture from first principles.
This is a role for someone who has been in the room for hard distributed-systems decisions before, and who is ready to make them again — this time with the consequences of getting it wrong measured in lives, not lost analytics events.
"Radar at 50 Hz, EO/IR at 25 fps, SIGINT pulses arriving asynchronously — fused on a 4 GB Jetson, with the upstream link dropping for 90 seconds. Operators downstream still need a decision-grade picture every second. How do you architect the buffering, the fusion, and the graceful downgrade?"
Take multi-modal model architecture from research into production — small, fast, contested-edge models that coordinate with each other and degrade gracefully under adversarial conditions.
Our autonomy stack lives on platforms that have 4 GB of RAM, 25 W of thermal headroom, and a connection that drops every few minutes. You will design models that ship in that environment — not papers in a notebook, models in the field.
You'll make architectural decisions about on-platform inference, multi-agent coordination, and adversarial robustness. You will care about the gap between IID benchmark performance and what happens when sensors get spoofed, jammed, or simply broken.
"Twelve heterogeneous platforms — four fixed-wing, six quadcopter, two ground — each carrying its own sensor mix. Maintain coverage of a 50 km² area while one platform is lost every three minutes. No GPS. Limited inter-platform comms. How do you train it, and how do you know it works?"
Make the system actually run. On real hardware, in the field, in vehicles and on platforms designed two decades ago. Own the edge runtime — kernel, drivers, memory, thermals, and the discipline of compute under budget.
Software people love to talk about edge. You will deliver edge — bring up new compute targets, debug timing on a CAN bus that hasn't been touched since 2008, hold a soldering iron, and ship a runtime that survives 55 °C in the back of a vehicle.
This is a role for someone who has scars — who has fixed silent failures at 03:00, who has read errata documents end-to-end, who knows that "it works on my desk" is a beginning, not an end.
"A platform integrator hands you a 10-year-old vehicle bus with proprietary timing, and asks you to land a 2 GB model plus our fusion runtime on a Jetson Orin NX with a 25 W thermal budget — sustained at 55 °C ambient. You have eight weeks. What's the plan?"
Build the interface operators actually use — under stress, in degraded conditions, with consequences that matter. Operators receive options, not dashboards. You will own how those options look, explain themselves, and keep a human as the decision authority.
An operator at 02:00, in a darkened room, with three sensor feeds disagreeing and 1.2 seconds to commit — the screen they look at is your work. You will design and build it: the typography, the information architecture, the motion, the moment a recommendation surfaces with its provenance and confidence intact.
This role is for a designer who codes — or an engineer with real design taste. You will spend time with operators in the field. You will own the design system, the front-end stack, and the discipline of "informationally dense and still calm."
"Three sensor streams disagree. The system has 1.2 seconds to surface options to an operator who must commit. What does that screen look like, what does the operator see first, and how do they understand which option to pick — without becoming a passive forwarder of machine verdicts?"
Be the bridge between engineering and Indian defence customers. Translate operational doctrine into product requirements; translate engineering reality into honest customer conversations. Help us win programmes that matter — and decline programmes that don't.
Defence procurement rewards the company that understands the customer's problem better than the customer can express it. You will be the person who does that understanding — sitting in MoD reviews, walking platforms with primes, returning to engineering with translated, prioritised, honest requirements.
This is a senior role for someone who has been in or alongside Indian defence for a decade or more — someone who has seen the integrator landscape from the inside, who has walked away from a deal that wasn't right, and who can do it again.
"A flagship customer wants a feature that takes six months and serves precisely one programme. The roadmap already has a competing item that serves three programmes and aligns with our core architecture. The customer is the second-largest in the company. Walk me through the conversation you'd have — internally and externally."
You apply with a CV or a link. A founder reads it personally — no recruiter triage. You hear back within 5 working days, yes or no, with a reason if no.
A 60-minute call with a founder. We talk about your work, the role, and one of the problems you'd join us in solving. No quizzes. No riddles. We want to understand how you think.
A paid 4-hour working session with the team you'd join. Real problem, real environment, your tools. We pay full day rates whether or not we hire.
Compensation discussed openly — base, equity, and what each is worth in our model. Reference checks at this stage, not before. You decide on your timeline.
We hire ahead of need when the right person appears. If you've read this far and the work resonates — even without a posted role — write to us. Tell us what you'd own.
