• Perform integration testing on subassemblies and full systems, spanning RF/digital hardware, firmware, embedded software, and application software layers.
• Design and implement automated tests to increase test coverage, repeatability, and overall testing efficiency.
• Triage and troubleshoot system-level failures observed during integration and characterization to rapidly identify root causes.
• Analyze system telemetry and test data to reproduce issues, validate software/hardware fixes, and ensure system reliability.
• Serve as a key technical liaison to deploy Anduril’s integrated hardware-software products, ensuring they meet customer and operational needs.

• Highly proficient with RF test equipment, including spectrum analyzers, signal generators, multimeters, oscilloscopes, and vector network analyzers.
• Comfortable navigating Linux environments, utilizing command-line interfaces, executing shell scripts, and working with debugging utilities.
• Experience using programming languages such as Python or MATLAB for data parsing, telemetry analysis, and test automation.
• Strong root-cause analysis and troubleshooting skills to resolve complex, system-level issues.
• Ability to travel up to 40% of the time to support testing, integration, and demonstrations at remote and outdoor field sites.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with strong organizational and interpersonal abilities.
• Currently hold and are able to maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
