Job description

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

Anduril's Software Engineers excel at developing state-of-the art algorithms and software that solve scientific problems with real-world applications. Working in small innovative teams, our software engineers build solutions that make a difference. Our research endeavors don’t end once we’ve written a journal or conference paper describing our technology; rather, our work is complete when our technology has been deployed in mission-critical systems and our customers within government and industry are successful. As science fiction writer Arthur Clarke wrote, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Anduril is seeking talented “magicians” to join in our mission to expand the boundary of what’s possible.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own the software system responsible for the production and calibration of radar sensors, ensuring reliability, scalability, and smooth integration with new hardware lines.
• Design and implement cloud-based and web-based applications (e.g., AWS services) for data collection, real-time monitoring, and hardware control.
• Collaborate with hardware and manufacturing engineers to resolve production issues and optimize system performance.
• Drive the architecture of scalable software systems that support high-volume hardware production.
• Monitor system health and implement proactive measures to prevent outages
• Monitor production performance metrics and provide feedback to the production team
• Develop frameworks and tools that can be easily adapted to future hardware product lines.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
• Python experience for scientific/engineering applications (NumPy, SciPy, Pandas).
• Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and agile development methodologies
• Understanding of Unix/Linux directory structures and system layouts
• Demonstrated problem-solving and analytical skills
• Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences.
• Experience deploying and/or managing cloud infrastructure and services.
• Experience setting up, configuring, and troubleshooting network-connected test and measurement devices such as DAQs, signal generators, and spectrum analyzers, or equivalent.
• Familiarity with OT network requirements including segmentation and security best practices and general networking proficiency across TCP/IP, VLANs, DNS, DHCP.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Familiarity with testing and integration of sensor systems such as radars, lidar, or EO/IR.
