Job description

About Our Transition to Ondas Sentinel Ondas Sentinel was recently acquired by Ondas Inc. (NASDAQ: ONDS) and, together with World View, has joined forces to create Ondas Sentinel. Ondas Sentinel is a next‑generation U.S. defense platform integrating long‑endurance ISR, autonomous systems, counter‑UAS technologies, and mission intelligence.

While Ondas Sentinel is now part of Ondas Sentinel, we are still legally operating as Ondas Sentinel as we complete the formal integration of our systems and processes. As a result, you may see roles cross‑posted across Ondas Sentinel and World View, during this transition. All positions represent opportunities within the same combined organization.

What does this mean for candidates? You’re joining a team that is accelerating the future of autonomous defense. You’ll be part of a company backed by significant investment, strong growth, and mission‑proven technology. You’ll work alongside world‑class engineers and innovators who have already delivered thousands of operational flight hours, high‑impact ISR capabilities, leading counter‑UAS systems, and breakthrough autonomous effects.

You’ll help shape a unified platform that enables operators to see more, decide faster, and act with confidence across the modern battlespace. Together, Ondas Sentinel is building something bigger than any one company, a scalable, integrated defense organization designed to meet emerging mission needs with speed, precision, and purpose.

If you’re energized by ambitious missions, rapid innovation, and a chance to help define the future of autonomous defense, we’d love to have you on the team.
