Job description

Senior Systems Engineer, Electrical Integration

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.

OUR TEAM

Within Anduril, our team develops unmanned aerial systems capable of terminal guidance, long range intelligence collection, precision navigation, and unsupervised autonomy. Anvil, Altius, Ghost, and other developmental UAS platforms operate in remote environments with limited user input, driving requirements for reliability and autonomy. We have developed an autonomy stack that receives user intent, responds to detections processed at the edge, and coordinates flight patterns for groups of assets. We want systems engineers with experience in this field to help design and manage the next generation of Anduril’s flight vehicles. In order to succeed at Anduril, a systems engineer needs familiarity with simulation and rapid prototyping development to drive complex electro‑mechanical and aero‑performance design trades, in addition to supporting the engineering product development, production, and sustainment through the entire product lifecycle.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• A passion for systems design, development, integration, and testing
• 5+ years of industry experience including but not limited to electrical engineering, aerospace engineering or systems engineering
• Comfort with systems modeling tools such as Cameo
• Familiarity with Agile/Scrum methodologies and the ability to operate effectively in an Agile development environment
• Hands‑on prototyping, troubleshooting, and build experience of complex robotic systems
• Experience developing automated test scripts and frameworks using a common language (eg, Python, MATLAB, etc)
• Extremely organized and detail-oriented, and excellent verbal & written communication skills
• A sincere commitment to a positive, inclusive, and collaborative culture
• Must hold a U.S. Secret security clearance
• Ability to travel up to 25% as needed for test planning and execution

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Hands‑on experience with prototyping, troubleshooting, and building complex robotic systems
• Familiarity with IP- based networks
• Experience with mission systems to include communications systems and components
• Familiarity with aviation airworthiness considerations
