Culture + Careers

Mission shapes our culture. We build micro and nano drones for the worst days—when visibility is gone, time is short, and the work has consequences. If you like speed, ownership, and real-world testing, you’ll fit here.

High standards.
Low ego.
Real-world consequences.
At Gunning Industries, culture is built on truth, speed, and accountability. We don’t “vibe” our way to safety-critical hardware—we measure, test, break, fix, and repeat until it’s boringly reliable. We operate close to real operators and real constraints: tight spaces, bad lighting, smoke, dust, chaos, stress.

Careers here are for builders who want ownership, not permission.
You’ll ship things that end up in go-bags and on scene—not slide decks. We value low ego, high standards, and people who can disagree without getting weird about it. If you’re the kind of person who sees a problem and starts moving before the meeting invite arrives, you’re our kind of person.

Support is part of the system. We’re building a team that can move fast for the long haul—practical benefits, real tools, and incentives tied to outcomes (not optics).
401(k) + long-term upside
Plan for the future while building it. Benefits evolve as we scale—roles include competitive compensation and meaningful upside.
Performance incentives
Win the mission, share the win. We reward measurable impact—shipping, reliability, and outcomes in the field.
Serious equipment
No “make it work” setups. We provide the hardware, tools, and build budget needed to do high-quality work quickly.
Paid time off
Rest is operational readiness. Take time when you need it and come back sharp—because the mission doesn’t reward burnout.
