Android Developer

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. Bullfrog is deployed with U.S. forces, and ACS works with organizations throughout the U.S. military and national security community.

Following a $200 million Series B at a $2.2 billion valuation, ACS is rapidly expanding manufacturing, accelerating Bullfrog deployments, and developing the next generation of autonomous battlefield systems. This is an opportunity to join a proven, fast-moving team and help scale technology with direct, real-world impact on national security.

ACS is headquartered in Austin, Texas, with additional operations in Alexandria, Virginia; Mountain View, California; and Huntsville, Alabama. For more information, visit allencontrolsystems.com.

Our interns aren't fetching coffee or shadowing — they're working alongside the same engineers and product teams building the systems we ship. As an Android Developer Intern, you'll help design and improve the interfaces that connect people with real-time technology, from mobile and embedded applications to internal tools used by our engineering and operations teams.

This is early-career work with real stakes. You'll work closely with engineers, product managers, and other designers to turn complex technical systems into interfaces that are intuitive, responsive, and built for the people who use them.

Location: Austin, TX (on-site)
Duration: Summer 2027 (~10–12 weeks)
Pay: Paid Internship (to be discussed during interviews)

What You'll Do

• Design and iterate on user interfaces for Android, tablet, embedded, and internal applications.

• Work closely with engineers to bring designs to life using technologies such as Jetpack Compose and modern Android UI frameworks.

• Collaborate with product managers, software engineers, and other stakeholders to understand user needs and translate them into thoughtful design solutions.
