Job description

Become Part of the Torch.AI Journey!

Torch.AI is a defense focused AI-software company. Unlike traditional government contractors, our team of experts takes calculated risks to self-fund R&D behind the scenes and then sells complete products "off-the-shelf" to mission owners. We conduct deep research into understanding how AI and new data infrastructures can improve a growing array of national security needs. This allows us to go from ideation to full capability deployment in weeks and months, instead of years.

We’re passionate about solving complex problems with global implications. Join us in our mission to help organizations Unlock Human Potential.

Torch.AI’s focus on the U.S. defense and national security industry offers you an unparalleled opportunity to directly contribute to the safety and well-being of the nation while engaging with cutting-edge technologies. As a vital sector leader that shapes global stability, we offers a dynamic environment to tackle complex challenges across multidisciplinary domains. With substantial investment in innovation, Torch.AI is at the forefront of developing AI, autonomous systems, and advanced national security solutions, each founded on the premise that information is the new battlefield.
