We’re looking for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to help us build the software-defined sensing network to secure the seas from adversarial threats. This role is based in Seattle and we’re offering generous relocation assistance for top tier talent ready to make the move. You'll be part of a small, elite team turning data into strategic deterrence. If you're an action-oriented engineer that is excited about the national security mission, we'd love to talk. ⬇️ Application URL in the comments.

AI and Decision Dominance isn’t theoretical. It’s already shaping how our country will compete with China in the century ahead. Join us on October 22 at Stanford DEFCON as Brian Katz takes the stage to explore how AI can transform decision-making at speed and scale.

How do you build AI agents that reason like adversaries and reliably operate in the real world? Forward Deployed Engineer Erik Rozi breaks down our approach to developing and fielding agentic AI systems, from data ingestion to deployed deterrence effects. Tested during Exercise Talisman Sabre 25, these systems accurately simulated adversary behavior across gray zone and conventional scenarios. We are turning data into deterrence, but we need top technical talent to push our models further.

During Bloomberg’s Defense Tech Special livestream, Edward Ludlow and Caroline Hyde interviewed leaders from Anduril Industries, Palantir Technologies, True Anomaly, Venrock, and Vannevar Labs to outline the future of American power in the face of strategic competition with China. At Vannevar Labs, we’re building the AI and agents to win that competition — developing a technology stack for decision advantage, powered by the best national-security datasets, exceeding one petabyte and growing every week. Our systems draw information from adversarial environments to train the AI models and agents that enhance U.S. strategic deterrence. 🧠 Vannevar Bush led America’s first great fusion of science, strategy, and statecraft. Eighty years later, that fusion is happening again. Who will lead this one? 👇 Watch the full video in the comments below

We close our first season of "In the Arena" with the biggest shift yet: reasoning agents. In the last handful of months, AI went from generating text to reasoning, choosing tools, and acting on mission problems. That step-change is already reshaping defense. Our CEO Brett Granberg shares: 👉 Why the jump from o1 → o3 changed everything 👉 How a task that once took 40 analysts a month now runs in 20 minutes 👉 What it takes to balance rapid experimentation with long-term product strategy We dive into what’s real today, what’s coming next, and how to navigate product development and infrastructure when the ground shifts every four weeks.

Reasoning agents are just the beginning.

💡 Agentic AI is rapidly transforming every industry. If you’re deciding where to spend your career in this era of limitless potential, look to defense. From radar to ARPANET to early computers, history shows that defense is the ultimate proving ground for breakthrough technology. Thomas Crosley, who leads our Agentic AI work, puts it best: “The frontier of agentic AI isn’t just about building better models—it’s about crafting them into agent-native applications that solve real-world problems.” If you want your work to have impact, this is the arena.
