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 TEAM

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 WILL DO:

• Contribute to the direction of a small team with your expertise and ideas
• Prototype state-of-the‑art software solutions in an agile development environment
• Implement high‑performance software spanning the spectrum from tactical systems to web applications
• Use high‑fidelity modeling and simulation environments, innovative analysis tools, and sound analysis techniques to quantify the benefit of our technology
• Engage with our customers, to ensure successful outcomes for their mission‑critical needs
• Work with all aspects of the software development lifecycle
• Help your colleagues and customers understand what you’re doing and why

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Bachelor’s degree in mathematics, physics, engineering, or other technical field (advanced degree strongly preferred)
• C/C++, Python, and Matlab;
• Big data/NoSQL/database technologies;
• Software engineering: software design, algorithm implementation, and software analysis, testing, and optimization;
• Machine learning: supervised and unsupervised learning, clustering, and classification;
• Applied mathematics: differential equations, linear algebra, optimization, statistics, and random processes;
• Engineering: controls, estimation theory, and digital signal processing.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret SCI security clearance

We request transcripts as part of the early application process to understand your academic background and how your coursework supports the skills deemed critical for the role.
