About Alta Ares

Alta Ares is a deeptech startup founded in 2024, building real\-time AI for defense operations — ISR, C\-UAS, and autonomous systems. Our clients are NATO\-aligned militaries and defence institutions, with regular deployments during live exercises and operational demonstrations. We raised €2M seed in May 2025, 50M in June 2026, and are expanding fast.

Our product suite includes:

• Real\-time AI ISR module deployable on drones and tactical platforms


• Counter\-UAS solution enabling autonomous drone takeover in GNSS\-denied environments


• Full\-stack MLOps platform for training \& deploying military\-grade AI models


• Data fusion and trajectory prediction

Role \& Missions

Embedded Software \& Robotics Development

• Develop embedded software for drones and robotic systems


• Work on flight controllers, sensor interfacing, and real\-time systems


• Implement onboard data processing and sensor fusion components

Firmware \& Hardware Deployment

• Deploy, flash, and maintain firmware and software on hardware platforms


• Ensure system reliability and robustness in real\-world environments


• Debug and troubleshoot low\-level hardware/software issues

Autopilot \& Drone Ecosystem

• Work with autopilot systems (ArduPilot / ArduPlane)


• Integrate and use communication protocols such as MAVLink


• Leverage simulation environments (SITL or equivalent) for testing and validation

Embedded Systems \& Communication

• Develop on embedded Linux systems and microcontrollers


• Interface with communication buses (I2C, SPI, UART, etc.)
