Job summary

Anduril Industries is seeking a firmware engineer to grow embedded skills on hardware that ships to the field. You will write real-time microcontroller code, build reusable drivers for sensors, and debug issues between schematic designs and software.

You will work closely with Electrical Engineering and own real firmware from day one. Ideal candidates have 1+ year of firmware experience, strong C skills, and familiarity with RTOS or bare-metal environments.

Qualifications

• BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent industry experience.
• 1+ years of firmware or embedded software development experience (internships and personal projects count if the work is real)
• Solid C coding ability for embedded systems
• Experience developing firmware in bare-metal or RTOS environments
• Familiarity with common bus protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, or similar)
• Willingness to learn — you don't need to know everything, but you need to be hungry to figure it out
• Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export-controlled information or facilities

Responsibilities

• Write firmware in C for microcontrollers across Connected Warfare platforms
• Develop and integrate reusable device drivers for sensors, peripherals, and communication interfaces
• Debug issues that span electrical, firmware, and software boundaries using bench tools and embedded debugging techniques
• Support board bring-up alongside the Electrical Engineering team — reviewing schematics, validating interfaces, and getting new hardware running
• Contribute to firmware architecture decisions as the codebase grows
• Ship code to production systems that are deployed in the field
