TLDR
About Us
The way humans use robots is broken. Modern warfare demands more robots than we have operators. Every drone, ground vehicle, and maritime system requires dedicated training, manual control, and constant human oversight. One operator per robot. One pilot per mission. This operator bottleneck is the constraint on military capability today.
Breaker's AI agent, Avalon, breaks this constraint. Instead of piloting individual robots, operators command entire teams of autonomous systems across air, ground, and maritime domains, all through natural conversation.
A single operator can now coordinate multiple drones, ground vehicles, and other platforms simultaneously. Instead of flying search patterns on three different screens, you say "survey this area and flag anything unusual" - and a team of robots figures out how to divide the task, coordinate their movements, and report back what matters.
We're not just making robots easier to control. We're fundamentally changing the operator-to-robot ratio, turning small teams into force multipliers.
Our software deploys models directly onboard each robot, enabling real-time, intent-driven control even in contested environments with limited bandwidth. We're solving problems most AI companies never touch: sub-second inference on edge hardware with strict latency, power, and connectivity constraints.
We're backed by some of the best global investors and are growing our team across Austin, Texas, and Sydney, Australia. We're a small team of experienced engineers, moving fast on technology that will define how humans and machines work together for decades to come.

About the Role
You'll lead hands-on deployments and demonstrations of Breaker's autonomous systems in the field. This role splits between conducting multi-drone demonstrations for defense customers and partners globally and rigorously testing our software from an operator's perspective.
You'll build this function from the ground up - independently running demonstrations that convert to contracts, while shaping our product through the lens of real operational experience. Your military background will directly influence how we build Avalon, ensuring we're solving actual mission problems, not theoretical ones.
This is a highly customer-facing role. You'll represent Breaker at major defense trade shows (AUSA, DSEI, Avalon, etc.), conduct live demonstrations for military decision-makers, lead technical discussions with potential customers, and translate operational requirements into product feedback for our engineering team. Your ability to speak the language of operators while explaining cutting-edge AI capabilities is critical.
This isn't a desk job. It's hands-on, fast-paced, and critical to our growth. This means loading equipment into vehicles, working outdoors in all conditions, traveling frequently across the US and internationally, and coordinating demonstrations with autonomous aerial, ground, and maritime systems. You'll translate complex technical capabilities into compelling operational value for defense audiences.
You'll work directly with the founders, having autonomy to own this domain completely - from trade show booth demonstrations to field trials to post-demo debrief with our engineering team.

Why Join Us?
You'll be an owner, not a renter. We're at the stage where foundational decisions are still being made and entire systems need to be built from scratch. Your work won't be maintaining someone else's legacy - you'll be creating what comes next. The problems you solve and the systems you build will define how Breaker scales.
You'll work with people who've done this before. Our team has shipped production robotics systems, scaled infrastructure, and solved the kind of hard integration problems that only come up when software meets the physical world. You won't be the only person in the room who's debugged a sensor fusion pipeline or optimized inference on a Jetson.
You'll solve problems that don't exist anywhere else. Most companies are building incremental improvements on established technology. We're defining new categories - which means the work is harder, more ambiguous, and infinitely more interesting.
You'll work hard, together. We're in the office every day, grinding on hard problems alongside great people. We've built a workspace where the best work happens - access to hardware, quick decisions, real collaboration. We're flexible when life requires it, but we're looking for people who want to show up, get stuck in, and build something significant with a team they respect.
We're going global. Backed by globally recognised investors, we're growing teams across Sydney, Australia and Austin, Texas. If you want exposure to international expansion and the opportunity to help build across regions, that path exists here.
Location. Austin, Texas
