What startups in aerospace and defense build
Startups here build satellites, engines, aircraft and defence systems, with hardware and software in the same building. Work runs on programme deadlines and hardware tests, so the calendar is less flexible than in pure software. Roles skew technical, and government customers mean paperwork and clearance requirements are part of the hiring.

You decide what to build, then sit with the engineers who build it. Users are close enough to call, and the roadmap changes when they tell you something surprising. At a large company you would write a spec and wait for a planning cycle.
