Profile match
Shield AI is an American defence technology company founded in 2015 that builds autonomy software and uncrewed aircraft for military missions. Its Hivemind autonomy stack lets aircraft fly, navigate and complete objectives without GPS, a remote pilot or a communications link, which matters in contested environments where those links are jammed. Headquartered in San Diego, California, the company fields the V-BAT vertical take-off aircraft with United States and allied forces, licenses Hivemind to other manufacturers and is developing the X-BAT jet for high-end missions.
Job Description:
ShieldAI has developed a software factory for building, optimizing, evaluating, and analyzing autonomy solutions. The technology has drawn significant interest from industry.

- Integrate our AI training factory and tooling onto new hardware
- Provide software updates and configuration management between various isolated environments
- Ensure proper operation of our AI training factory and tooling
- Coordinate with autonomy teams to build and meet requirements
- Solve challenging and important problems
Required qualifications:
- Typically requires a minimum of 7 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 6 years and a Master’s degree; or 4 years with a PhD; or equivalent work experience.
- 3+ years demonstrated experience with cloud computing solutions and architecture, with a focus on Kubernetes and container orchestration
