We build next-generation physical AI for Europe’s security.

About us

NestAI is where Europe's best engineers and scientists come to build technology that matters.

We are a fast-growing team of more than 150 people working at the frontier of defence technology, building systems that must work when conditions are worst and failure has real consequences.

The problems we take on are among the hardest still unsolved, with profound human and societal impact. They bring together exceptional people committed to a shared mission.

3
  • Data platforms for AI systems

    Building data platforms and pipelines that support training, validation, and deployment of AI systems.

4
  • Secure infrastructure and connectivity

    Designing secure infrastructure and communication systems that enable distributed physical AI systems to operate reliably.

How we work

We build systems for environments where failure is not an option. That shapes how we build, and how we work together.

  • Forward-deployed engineering

    Engineers at NestAI build and test systems in real environments, working on technology that must perform reliably outside controlled settings.

  • Responsibility by design

    Safety, accountability, and human judgment are built into the systems from the start, not added later as constraints.

  • Disciplined
    iteration

    We learn quickly and improve continuously, but without cutting corners. Systems evolve through careful testing, validation, and real-world feedback.

  • Cross-domain collaboration

    Adaptive AI is a system problem.
Software, hardware, data platforms, and AI are designed together by engineers working across disciplines.

The team

NestAI is a place for people who care deeply about what they build. You’ll work on problems where clear thinking and sound judgment matter as much as technical skill, and where collaboration is essential.

We take our craft seriously, but not ourselves. We value humility, trust, and clear thinking over ego or theatrics, and we look after each other while doing demanding work.
