About Nominal

Nominal builds software for continuous testing and operations of mission-critical hardware—rockets, drones, fusion reactors. We equip Engineers with a new software toolbox so they always know what happened, why, and what’s next. Our current team of exceptional engineers and operators previously built critical tools to keep soldiers safe, make $XXM financial trades automatically, or land a spacecraft on Mars. We're backed by mission-minded investors like General Catalyst, Lux Capital, and Founders Fund.

Nominal is intentional about culture: high-performance, thoughtful, deeply collaborative, and driven by our values. Every Nomineer is trusted with meaningful responsibility from day one.
