About Adarga

Adarga is the UK’s only sovereign Defence Tech company specialising in applied AI solutions across intelligence, operations and planning. In an era of information overload, our technology enables mission partners to act with speed, clarity and confidence. By unlocking the value of data, we help them make better decisions that deliver mission-critical outcomes.

Our team blends domain specialists and technologists, a mix we believe is essential to building AI that’s both cutting-edge and operationally relevant. With foundations in NLP, computational linguistics and graph technology, we now draw on the latest ideas in generative AI and knowledge representation to define and build the next era of sovereign AI capability for Defence and National Security.

To work at Adarga you must care deeply about the mission. We exist to support those with the ultimate task: upholding the liberties and values that define our society. In today’s contested, multipolar world, this cannot be taken for granted.

We want people who thrive in dynamic environments, who want to own decisions, who want to drive a vision. If that is you, get in touch!
