About
Airbase builds the software platform for radio frequency spectrum licensing, coordination, and intelligence. We are a fast-moving, dual-use startup transforming wireless communication from a static, analog bottleneck into a dynamic, software-defined advantage. Today, the world's most advanced hardware—from satellite mega-constellations to Army UAS swarms and Electronic Warfare systems—is grounded by 20th-century paperwork. Spectrum coordination relies on fragmented databases, missing systems of record, and decades of static PDFs. Airbase is fixing this. We've built novel AI pipelines to digitize this analog bureaucracy and translate it into a software-defined, machine-readable data layer. We are transforming the spectrum from a static bottleneck into a dynamic advantage, delivering machine-speed tactical deconfliction for the military and automated licensing for commercial innovators. What You'll Do
Ship Production Code:
Work alongside our founding engineers to build and deploy features using modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks (React, Next.js, Node.js).
Untangle the Chaos:
Help build and refine the backend systems that ingest, clean, and structure messy legacy government data (PDFs, old databases) into our modern API.
Visualize the Airwaves:
Contribute to building dynamic, interactive user interfaces that map congested RF spectrum data so commanders and operators can make split-second decisions.
Learn the Startup Playbook:
Get a front-row seat to how an early-stage, a16z-backed defense tech company operates, from engineering sprints to dual-use product strategy.
What We're Looking For
Technical Foundation:
Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field (or you have equivalent hands-on/bootcamp experience).
JavaScript Chops:
Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript and familiarity with modern frontend and backend frameworks (React, FastAPI, etc.).
High Agency:
You don't wait to be told exactly what to do. You are scrappy, figure things out, read the documentation, and ask smart questions when you get stuck.
The "Builder" Gene:
You have a portfolio of personal projects, hackathon builds, or open-source contributions that prove you love to build things outside of class.
Bonus Points
Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL).
An interest in aerospace, national security, or hard tech.
Benefits & Perks
Competitive salary with opportunities for growth.
Regular team-building events and company retreats.
Airbase is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or protected veteran status.
