NODA is a veteran-owned, venture-backed technology company that is transforming how unmanned systems collaborate in complex, mission-critical environments. We are developing next-generation solutions that enable the autonomous orchestration of heterogeneous unmanned systems across air, sea, land, and space with vital applications in the defense, intelligence, and commercial sectors. Our Full-Stack Engineers build the distributed software backbone that enables seamless communication and coordination across diverse unmanned platforms, creating unified orchestration experiences from real-time data pipelines to intuitive control interfaces. Joining NODA means working on meaningful technology that pushes the boundaries of autonomy alongside a team that thrives on innovation, rapid iteration, and collaboration.

  • Design and maintain full-stack applications that support real-time orchestration and mission coordination.
  • Build scalable backend APIs and microservices for high-throughput, low-latency networking operations.
  • Develop data processing pipelines that manage telemetry, sensor feeds, and AI recommendations across multi-domain fleets.
  • Implement operator UIs (React/Next.js) for mission control, data visualization, and AI-assisted workflows.
  • Incorporate network-aware orchestration features, ensuring UIs and backends can adapt to variable bandwidth, degraded links, or mesh network environments.
  • Collaborate with networking engineers to optimize protocol performance, telemetry handling, and distributed tasking.
  • Contribute to observability tooling (metrics, logs, dashboards) for networked orchestration and AI-driven autonomy.
  • Ensure resilience, security, and reliability through automated testing, monitoring, and deployment practices.
  • Participate in CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and hybrid cloud + edge deployment strategies.
  • Support long-term architectural design, with an emphasis on scalable, network-integrated orchestration systems.
  • 3+ years of professional software development experience.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Expertise with React and modern frontend frameworks.
