9 Mothers (YC P26) Is Hiring in Austin, TX

[ WHY 9 MOTHERS ] Why this team. Why now. If you've ever shipped hardware inside a slow program of record and thought we should be doing this in months, not years — this is the team for you. 01 The work is the perk. Autonomous perception, terminal engagement, manufacturable hardware — designed and built in one room. You'll own a system, not a Jira ticket. The work is the perk.

Range time, range data, range fixes. We instrument what we build and we iterate on what the data tells us — not on what the roadmap deck promised six months ago. Short loops, real telemetry.

Cost-per-shot, serviceability, and manufacturability are design constraints. We're building weapons the U.S. and its allies can afford to use at scale. Built to be afforded.
