Work at a Startup

BRINC Drones helps first responders with products that quickly and effectively respond to emergencies. Our technology allows our first responders to get eyes and ears on what's happening in indoor structures when it's too dangerous for people to enter - whether it be a fire, medical emergencies, violence, or search and rescue. We're building our LiveOps, the first iteration of BRINC's web app that will be the backbone of the software solutions that we offer to first responders alongside their drones.

We're looking for a motivated and talented backend/platform engineer to help us build this product from the ground up. Below, you'll find some information about the role, and what skills we're looking for.
