Who we are
Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.
As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy. We’re hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years.
What you will be doing
The Federal Communications Manager will lead efforts to build relationships with defense related think tanks and journalists who influence how Congress, the Pentagon, and the Executive Branch view programs related to Neros’s suite of capabilities. This position will partner with the Marketing Team to build the Neros brand through messaging campaigns, social events, and white papers tailored for government audiences.
