At Shield AI, our mission is to protect service members and civilians with intelligent systems that are deployed in the world’s most critical environments. As an Engineer on our Software Systems team, you’ll play a central role in delivering integrated solutions built around our core autonomy platform—Hivemind—which is already operating in high-stakes, real-world missions.  

This isn’t a traditional engineering role. You’ll work at the intersection of software, systems architecture, and autonomy—partnering across teams to turn complex design visions into operational reality. You won’t just build systems; you’ll help define how autonomous technologies are designed, developed, and deployed.

In this role, you will collaborate closely with:  

-US and international programmatic leadership to determine the appropriate System Engineering level of effort  

-System Design Teams (e.g., Human Factors, UX, Architecture, etc.) to decompose solution designs to actionable levels of detail  

-System Development & Test (e.g., Development, Integration, Test) to define system architectures  

Our international team members are employed through our Employer of Record (EOR) and receive a comprehensive international benefits package on top of base salary. For full details on compensation and benefits, please consult your talent acquisition partner.
