Head of Software

Picogrid is a leading venture-backed defense technology company founded to bridge the decades-long gap between modern technology and the critical demands of national security. Today, we're building the essential infrastructure to unify sensors, autonomy, and operators with our technology deployed in active operations around the world. Our mission is to deliver an operational advantage to secure the United States and its allies.

As the Head of Software at Picogrid, you will be the foundational technical leader responsible for defining, building, and scaling our entire software engineering function. You will lead the end-to-end development of Picogrid's software stack: from the Legion platform and Orion C2 interfaces to edge-deployed systems operating in disconnected, denied, and degraded environments. This is a highly demanding, hands-on role for a true generalist and technical leader ready to stand up a world-class department from the ground up.

You will set the technical vision across backend platforms, real-time geospatial UIs, hardware-software integration, and operator-facing command-and-control systems. You won't just manage, you will architect, build, and ship alongside your team. Work with hardworking, ambitious, world-leading talent to build the future of unmanned system behavior orchestration.
