## Description

Introduction

At Alpine Eagle, we're building the future of counter-drone defence. We're a fast-growing, international deep-tech company working at the intersection of aerospace engineering, defence systems, and machine learning. Our goal: create the world's first swarm-based, airborne counter-drone system.

Modern conflicts show how quickly drones are reshaping the battlefield. Threats are rising, and today's solutions aren't keeping pace. We're here to change that.

Alpine Eagle isn't just a defence company. It's a mission. Backed by an international team, strong funding, and a bold vision, we're looking for people who want to shape the next generation of aerial security and build something that truly matters.

How you will make an impact:

 * Take part in the development of software components that enable development and operation of our next-generation airborne counter UAS solutions. Depending on your personal qualification, this may cover simulation, algorithms, tooling, and/or infrastructure.
 * Collaborate closely with the hard- and software team to deliver seamless integration and continuous improvement.
 * Evaluate

your software in our

 * and at our test sites.

What you need to be successful:
