Über uns

Wer wir sind: ein Start-up der Verteidigungstechnologie, das sich auf Lösungen für die industrielle Bildverarbeitung spezialisiert hat. Wenn Sie eine Leidenschaft für bahnbrechende Innovationen haben und Ihre Fähigkeiten einsetzen möchten, um Lösungen der nächsten Generation zu entwickeln, ist dies eine Chance für Sie!

Was wir tun: Wir entwickeln Lösungen, die es Computern und Sensoren ermöglichen, in Teams zusammenzuarbeiten, um neue Sicherheitsherausforderungen zu bewältigen. Unsere Hauptaufgabe ist die Abwehr von KI-gestützten asymmetrischen Bedrohungen in großem Maßstab, wie z. B. Drohnenschwärme und andere UXVs.

Wie wir arbeiten: Wir setzen auf eine hybride Arbeitskultur - wir schätzen die Zusammenarbeit im Büro, ermöglichen unseren Teammitgliedern aber auch die eigenverantwortliche und selbstständige Arbeit aus der Ferne.

Wo wir sind: Mit Sitz in München, Berlin und Toulouse expandieren wir schnell in ganz Europa und planen, bald weitere Büros zu eröffnen.
