Unlock Your New Adventure
TLDR
Drive pioneering space robotics in a dynamic startup, tackling assembly, inspection, and surface operations for orbital, lunar, and defense applications.
Who We Are
GITAI is a space robotics company working to reduce the cost of work in space by 100x.
Space is no longer defined only by the cost of launch. Satellites, space stations, lunar infrastructure, and defense systems are becoming more capable and more ambitious. But getting hardware to space is only the first step. The harder problem is doing useful work once it is there.
GITAI develops robotic systems for orbital, lunar, and defense applications. Our robots are designed for tasks such as assembly, inspection, maintenance, construction, and surface operations in environments where human labor is expensive, dangerous, or impractical. To move fast and drive cost down, we keep hardware, software, testing, and integration close together. This allows our team to learn from real tests, shorten development cycles, and reduce dependency on slow external handoffs.
We are still early. The systems, the company, and the market are all being built at the same time. If you are the kind of person who finds energy in hard problems and wants to build through difficult challenges before the path is fully clear, GITAI may be the right place for you.
