Teams at Askari

Own and improve manufacturing processes for autonomous defense systems, including workflow design, SOPs, facility layouts, fixtures, tooling, DFM/DFA, rapid prototyping, and production automation. Build manufacturing software for inventory, traceability, visibility, and process control using AI/LLM-assisted development. Collaborate across engineering, operations, and supply chain teams, support new product introduction, maintain production equipment, and help scale operations toward continuous manufacturing and future leadership responsibilities.

Design and implement state estimation and navigation systems for autonomous interceptor platforms operating in GPS-contested, high-dynamic environments. Responsibilities include estimator architecture, observability analysis, multimodal sensor fusion, target-relative navigation, latency and fault handling, sensor integration, guidance and controls co-design, and validation through simulation, hardware testing, telemetry, and flight campaigns.

Design, train, optimize, and deploy real-time computer vision models for detecting, classifying, tracking, and estimating states of aerial targets. Integrate perception systems with ROS 2 and autonomous platforms using production C++, CUDA, TensorRT, and embedded NVIDIA hardware. Conduct field testing and data collection, benchmark models, and rapidly iterate on performance for counter-UAS systems.
