ACS builds counter drone guns so we are hiring LOTS of people. Come work with us in Austin, Texas. Visit allencontrolsystems.com and look at our job listings. If it's there, it's live. Don't second guess yourself. Every role needs multiple people in engineering, ops and manufacturing: production, assembly, CNC, quality control, supply chain, etc.
