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.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Work with a cross-functional engineering team (RF, DSP, Firmware, FPGA, software, Test) to deliver robust embedded processing solutions for communications and networking.
• Execute and optimize the FPGA Firmware implementation development lifecycle, from algorithms in Matlab and/or Simulink and requirements definition through architecture, design, development, Firmware implementation, test, integration, support and sustainment for low-cost FPGAs, SoCs, and SoMs.
• Establish and optimize comprehensive product development workflows and best practices across the HDL firmware lifecycle, encompassing architecture, design, simulation, verification, and system testing.
• Develop microProcessor ICDs between FPGA and message/data handling schemes

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent
• Demonstrated experience working with cross-functional hardware and/or embedded systems product development teams, taking firmware and software from concept to production
• 6+ years of experience designing, implementing, and verifying FPGA-based systems using VHDL or Verilog,
• Experience using code-generators to translate MATLAB/Simulink algorithms into FPGA implementations
• Proficient in C and C++
• Experience with RTOS (Real Time Operating Systems)
• Familiarity with common MCU, CPU, FPGA devices and technologies
• Familiarity with standard interfaces such as Ethernet, I2C, SPI, PCIe, USB, etc.
• Familiarity with flight software architectures and development processes for embedded systems
• Proficiency with basic EE test equipment (Oscilloscopes, Spectrum Analyzers, Signal Generators, etc.) and testing PCBAs.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience with wireless communications systems
• Expertise in computer networking
• Experience with AI-generated software (CoPilot, Claude, Code-GPT, etc.)
• Experience with implementing enhanced security measures
• Familiarity with high reliability designs in aerospace environments
• Familiarity with aircraft systems architectures, especially with redundant systems
• Understanding and familiarity with DO-254, DO-178C, DO-160, DO-311A
