Overland AI, founded in 2022 and headquartered in Seattle, is transforming land operations for modern defense through autonomous ground vehicles and command-and-control software. The company has secured eight-figure DoD contracts and partnerships with DARPA, the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, and Special Operations Command, backed by investors including 8VC and Point 72.
We seek a hands-on Field Operations Specialist to support frequent field testing and demonstrations of high-speed autonomous off-road vehicles in remote and austere environments across the continental United States. This is an execution-focused role requiring someone who thrives in dynamic, fast-paced settings and can manage complex logistics with minimal supervision.
Key responsibilities include executing field tests and demonstrations locally (Ellensburg and Yakima areas) and at sites nationwide; owning inventory control and asset management across multiple events; leading event pack-out and pack-in operations including loading, transport, on-site setup and teardown; attending and supporting field tests multiple times weekly locally with monthly out-of-state travel on occasional short notice; and operating off-road vehicles and light equipment in support of testing (training provided).
You will manage equipment staging, packing, and maintenance; coordinate logistics for complex field operations; troubleshoot issues in real-time; and work closely with engineering and command teams. The role demands strong organizational skills, physical capability for hands-on work, adaptability to changing priorities, and the ability to quickly learn new software tools and systems. This is ideal for someone who enjoys working with their hands, thrives in unstructured environments, and takes ownership of operational excellence.
