Our software flies drones in combat - not in demos, not in simulations, but in the field, every day.
AITAN builds the operating system for multi-drone warfare: one platform that lets a single operator command an entire fleet in real time.
We're looking for a Backend Engineer to help turn advanced drones, sensors, payloads, and third-party technologies into reliable, field-ready capabilities that operators can trust.
