Manufacturing Engineering Manager

Allen Control Systems (ACS) is a cutting-edge defense startup, founded by two ex-Navy electrical engineers with a proven track record in robotics and software. We are developing a small, autonomous gun turret that employs advanced computer vision and control systems to precisely target and neutralize small drones and loitering munitions. Our innovative approach requires overcoming significant technical challenges, making this an exciting and dynamic environment for experienced engineers.

With an engineering-first culture, ACS values technical excellence and innovation. Backed by our founders' successful exits from two previous ventures acquired for a combined $180M in 2022, we are committed to ensuring that the groundbreaking technologies we develop will have a real-world impact.

As the Manufacturing Engineering Manager , your primary mission is to own the physical realization of our autonomous defense systems. You will bridge the gap between engineering R&D and the factory floor, ensuring our mission-critical products are built with precision, efficiency, and scale. This role requires a hands-on leader who thrives in an "engineering-first" culture and possesses the technical grit to build out production lines for complex, ruggedized robotics.
