About Beacon AI

Beacon AI builds intelligent systems that make aviation safer and more autonomous. We’ve completed multiple DoD programs and are expanding our team with exceptional technical leaders to push the boundaries of human-machine collaboration in the cockpit.

The Role

At Beacon, you will lead by example, mentoring and growing a small team of talented engineers (typically 1–2 to start) while staying hands-on in design and execution. You’ll help shape critical systems that advance aviation safety and autonomy, working alongside a team that values effort, creativity, and accountability.

You will own your work end-to-end, from prototype to deployment, and literally see your code take flight in real-world aviation environments.

  • iOS Engineer: Swift, SwiftUI, UIKit, Mapbox
