About these results

What is on this page

Defence Careers is tracking 373 open autonomy & robotics roles, read directly from employers' own careers pages rather than reposted from another board. Most are in Germany (128), France (55) and Switzerland (45), across 13 countries in total.

Of those, 65 are pitched at senior level, 36 can be done remotely and 262 sit in engineering. The employers hiring are Destinus, STARK, Harmattan AI and Anduril Industries, plus 4 others. Every listing links straight to their own application page — this board never sits in between.

How many autonomy & robotics roles are there?

373 right now on Defence Careers. The number moves most days: roles are added as employers post them and removed the day they come down.

Which companies are hiring?

Destinus, STARK, Harmattan AI, Anduril Industries and Helsing, plus 3 more. Each has a profile here listing everything they currently have open.

Are any of these remote?

36 of the 373 say so explicitly. Where a listing is silent we leave it unmarked rather than guessing, so the real figure is likely a little higher.
