Neros is a defense technology company headquartered in Torrance, California near Los Angeles that designs and mass-produces low-cost FPV, autonomous and interceptor drones for Western militaries, including its Archer FPV system. Founded in 2023 by former drone racers Soren Monroe-Anderson and Olaf Hichwa, it builds its drones in the United States without Chinese supply chains, has offices in Washington, Kyiv and London, and raised a $250 million Series C at a $2.5 billion valuation. It hires mechanical, firmware, PCB, autonomy, UAV systems and manufacturing engineers, FPV test pilots, supply chain and IT staff, and US Army business development leads.

Who we are

Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.

As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy. We’re hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years.
