Job description
Company Overview ACS (Allen Control Systems) is a defense technology company building precision robotic systems for the United States and its allies. Founded by two former U.S. Navy electrical engineers with deep experience in robotics and software, ACS brings together AI, computer vision, precision motion, and advanced hardware to solve complex defense challenges across land, air, and maritime environments.
Our flagship product, Bullfrog, is an autonomous precision weapon system that transforms existing weapons into highly accurate counter-drone systems — giving warfighters a scalable, cost-effective response to one of the fastest-growing threats on the modern battlefield.

- Ensure no test leaves the facility without usable data, a clear owner for analysis, and an initial quality check on results.
- Build and improve test procedures, instrumentation plans, checklists, and post-test review workflows.
- Support bring-up, debugging, and fault isolation across system interfaces during verification efforts.
- Work with systems, mechanical, electrical, and software teams to improve test quality, repeatability, and observability.
- Drive disciplined handling of raw data, intermediate results, and test evidence so verification outcomes are defensible.
- Help translate test results into clear evidence packages that support requirement closure and engineering decisions.
