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.

ABOUT THE JOB

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our growing team in Irvine, CA. Anduril is developing software at the intersection of machine learning, computer vision, and sensor fusion. In this role you will be bringing together data from robots, cameras, radars, and many other sources into a single combined operational picture which enables both autonomous systems and end users to complete their missions. We develop cutting edge software for autonomous operation and situational awareness by having sensors and systems that work together to improve over time.
WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Design and develop robust and efficient software for real-time tracking and fusion.
• Conduct data analysis and performance evaluation to validate and improve tracking system capabilities.
• Contribute to the full software development lifecycle, including requirements analysis, design, coding, testing, and deployment.
• Stay up to date with the latest developments in tracking and fusion technology.
• Write clear and maintainable code with comprehensive documentation.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior engineers.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Proficiency in production-grade C++ or Rust software development
• Strong background in linear algebra, multivariable calculus, and probability/stochastic processes
• Experience with probabilistic inference and Bayesian likelihood estimation
• Familiarity with classical and contemporary approaches for state estimation and tracking (e.g. Kalman Filter, EKF, Particle Filter)
• Strong communication skill and the ability to take large problems and break them down into actionable parts
• Eligible to obtain and hold a U.S. Secret security clearance

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• We are looking for engineers with professional experience in one or more of the following areas and are interested in learning more:
• Experience processing sensor measurements from Radar, Electro-Optical Sensors, RF Sensors, or LIDAR
• Experience with sensor characterization and modeling
• Multi-target prediction and tracking (e.g., Multi-hypothesis tracking)
• Derivation of performance metrics and analysis of system performance
• Camera and sensor calibration
• Familiarity with non-linear optimization frameworks like Ceres, g2o, GTSAM, etc
• Experience in unmanned systems
• Experience in Docker, CircleCI, Linux
• MS or PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Applied Math, Physics or related field
