The Role

As a founding engineer, you’ll work side‑by‑side with the founders to radically improve how military teams prepare for urgent, global missions. You’ll own the full product lifecycle—from discovery and architecture to launch and iteration—and you’ll help shape company culture, engineering practices, and product strategy. If the idea of building with users on base and shipping software that directly impacts operational missions excites you, this role is a great fit.

What You’ll Do

• Own major product areas end‑to‑end : clarify user needs, define scope, design systems, implement, test, and ship.
• Build AI‑enabled, collaboration‑first features that streamline readiness tracking and unit workflows.
• Partner directly with service members (on‑site ~1× / month) to translate real‑world constraints into product improvements.
• Establish and champion engineering best practices (testing, observability, security, DevOps) for a high‑velocity team.
• Contribute to key company decisions across product, process, and culture.
