Open Roles

Who we are

Raft is a leading defense technology company building the software foundation of modern warfare. We build operator-first, software-first data and AI products that adapt to the mission and conform to the operator enabling them to make faster, trusted decisions anywhere, anytime the fight requires.

What We Do

We build the software foundation of modern warfare.

Raft builds operator-first, software-first data and AI products that adapt to how missions are fought — not the other way around. Our products fuse and stream data, enable trusted human-AI partnership, and scale from the tactical edge to enterprise environments, even in contested and disconnected conditions. This is how we win the fight.
