About Aquila

Aquila is building the future of energy, and it's made of light.

We're a fast-growing deep tech company based in Sydney on a mission to democratise energy accessibility. How? By building the world's first wireless energy network powered by light. Think of the internet, but instead of data, we're transmitting power. Our first frontier: laser beams that keep drones flying indefinitely and factory robots charging without ever stopping.

We're backed by world-class investors who believe in what we're building, with over $7 million (AUD) in funding from Blackbird, Possible, Icehouse, Startmate and the Australian Government. 2026 is shaping up to be our biggest year yet as we commercialise our technology and raise our Series A. If you're reading this, your timing is impeccable.

We're a team of builders, engineers and dreamers solving problems no one has solved before. Everything we do is guided by five core values:

• Move at lightspeed: We test, iterate and ship fast. Speed is a feature.
• Physics over precedent: The only limits we accept are the laws of physics.
• Design THE network: We're here to build the largest energy infrastructure the world has ever seen.
• Care deeply, own fully: We operate with a founder mindset where every person drives real business outcomes with empathy and accountability.
• Laser set to max: We take calculated risks to push the frontier forward, because playing it safe won't change the world.

At Aquila, we shape roles around exceptional people. If the mission excites you but you don't tick every box below, apply anyway. We'd love to hear from you.
