What We Do
At BRINC we are driven by a spirit of service. Our team works hand in hand with our customers to imagine and build American-made drones that protect first responders and people in situations of real-world danger. A tragic moment led to BRINC's invention: the 2017 mass shooting at The Mandalay Bay, in our hometown of Las Vegas. For more than an hour, people were shot and killed, and. hundreds scrambled to find safety. At the same time, men and women risked their lives in a painstaking, physical search of the tower. We waited, we asked why, and how could we help? Our Founder and CEO, Blake Resnick, knew that technology must be able to offer a solution, and serve a role to save lives. Invention needs persistence: a 17-year-old Blake reached out to local Las Vegas law enforcement and finally secured a meeting. Amid skepticism, Blake's passion and creative vision convinced a seasoned team to support his vision to build a tool that could help them. For the next 3+ years, Blake lived the problem - riding with first responders, to experience their challenges in the field - and he developed the drone that now is BRINC's first breakthrough system: The LEMUR S, Built in the USA. We launched BRINC in early 2021 and today we are a diverse team of more than 100 engineers, builders, technologists, and public safety specialists.
Why Work With Us
BRINC is guided by a core set of principles that help drive the company towards innovation, personal and professional growth, and the mission to build technologies that help save lives. At BRINC, we believe in inventing the future and building purpose-built tools that help first responders and communities stay safe.
