Nominal is a venture-backed software company with offices in LA, Austin, and NYC, building next-generation tools for testing and validating complex physical systems-like drones, rockets, satellites, and nuclear reactors. Backed by leading investors (Founders Fund, Lux, General Catalyst), we are trusted by both the U.S. Department of Defense and the broader federal aerospace and defense ecosystem. We're a team of former Palantir, SpaceX, Applied Intuition, and Anduril engineers on a mission to empower hardware teams with the software infrastructure they need to validate and deploy faster, safer, and at scale. This role is ideal for software engineers passionate about making an impact by developing mission-critical solutions deployed directly to customer sites. The Mission Dev role balances technical skill, problem-solving, and end-user engagement to deliver robust solutions for complex, data-intensive systems. Expect to work on high-frequency, multi-modal data pipelines, real-time analytics, and on-site integrations in demanding environments.
