About The Company
Allen Control Systems (ACS) is a robotics defense company purpose-built to deliver advanced robotic capabilities to fill modernization demands across the defense industry and national security communities. We've developed proprietary advanced hardware and software robotic weapon stations, powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning, that enable any legacy or modern weapon system to achieve precise aiming and impact. We're headquartered in Austin, TX, with an office in Alexandria, VA. If you're passionate about our mission, we’d love to hear from you.
About the Role

Company Overview

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 continuous learning. 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 have a real-world impact.
