Does your mission-critical software meet the demands of your mission?

When software is at the heart of the mission, there’s no room for compromise. Polyrhythm delivers engineering-grade solutions built to perform under pressure. We bring deep technical experience, a bias for clarity, and a culture that prioritizes outcomes over noise.

Polyrhythm transcends traditional software development.

Mission-ready software engineering for flight test, mission systems, and beyond.

We work at the intersection of software and real-world systems—where timing, data, and control matter. Our background in flight test and mission-critical environments gives us the edge to build software that performs when failure isn’t an option.

From scientific computing to sensor integration and simulation, we design architectures that scale, adapt, and deliver. Whether it’s embedded systems or AI-accelerated tools, we prioritize clarity, performance, and maintainability in every solution.

With decades of experience in C++, C#, and Python, we help teams solve complex technical problems and move faster with confidence. Our code ships clean, our systems hold up under pressure, and our mindset stays focused on the mission.

Key Services

Custom Software Development

We build software that fits where off-the-shelf solutions fall short. From low-level systems to full-stack applications, our work thrives in demanding environments where reliability, performance, and clarity aren’t optional—they’re the baseline.

Flight Test & Mission Systems Support

Flight test and mission systems demand more than just code—they require seamless orchestration between hardware, software, and timing. We build high-performance tools that fuse data, control systems, and fielded equipment into mission-ready platforms designed to meet real-world test conditions.

Agile Organizational Transformation

Transforming how teams deliver software starts with reshaping how they think. We help organizations adopt agile practices that stick—grounded in real engineering needs, not process theater. The result is faster iteration, clearer priorities, and software that actually ships.

Innovative DevOps Practices

DevOps isn’t a toolchain—it’s a mindset. We design pipelines and practices that remove friction, tighten feedback loops, and keep delivery aligned with mission goals. From shift-left security to custom automation, we build systems that move fast without breaking things.

Modeling & Simulation

We build modeling and simulation tools that go beyond visualization—they help teams understand, predict, and decide. From physics-based systems to high-fidelity environments, our work delivers the clarity needed to navigate complexity with confidence.

Software Project Management

Effective software leadership means more than hitting deadlines—it’s about building the right thing, the right way. We manage complex projects with clarity and intent, aligning teams, scope, and execution to deliver real outcomes without the overhead.

Software Engineering, Education, and Culture

Engage with Polyrhythm

Need software that holds up under pressure? Let’s talk. Whether you’re building flight systems, integrating sensors, or solving tough engineering challenges, we’re ready to help.

Our experience comes from leading the vision, strategy, design, and implementation of some of the world's most sophisticated architectures.

Our depth of knowledge and experience is unrivaled.

Our values shape everything we do. We’re building more than software—we’re building careers worth having and systems that matter to the people who use them.

Promote Transparency

No Bullshit. Openness and transparency are at our core. You owe it to the rest of the team and our clients to lay out your thoughts and ideas and be open to the thoughts and ideas of others. Speaking your mind requires thoughtfulness, contemplation, and consideration. Listening to others requires just as much honesty and transparency as transmitting your thoughts.

Hold the Bar High

Hold your team to a high standard and insist they hold you to the same or higher standard. When things get hard, it is easy to lower the bar. Know the difference between accumulating debt (technical, management, etc.) and lowering the bar. Audit our process, people, technology, and culture to ensure we continually improve as a team and for our clients.

Play as a Team

Execute with speed and purpose. Maintain a team-first mentality. Be ready to stretch out of your comfort zone to support your team. Talk to your teammates. Know when to take the shot and when to pass the ball. Keep communications open and do what is right for the team. No infighting. No drama. No gossip. Be serious without taking yourself too seriously.

Build Value

Identify Win-Win-Win situations. Build value for our clients, our company, and each other. Recognize that the value of a great idea diminishes over time. Build initiative, ownership, and communication across your efforts. Complete your swing.

We're more than just developers; we're pioneers shaping what's next. Where deep tech meets mission impact.

We build systems that don’t just solve today’s problems—they anticipate tomorrow’s.

Our mission is to deliver resilient, high-performance solutions that drive real-world results.

At Polyrhythm, we push beyond legacy thinking with software pipelines built for speed, clarity, and precision. We’re a principle-driven, engineer-first company where technical depth is respected and people come first. If you want to do meaningful work with teams that value trust, candor, and impact—we’re your kind of place.
