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 Electronic Warfare (EW) division builds next-generation electronic warfare platforms — hardware-enabled, software-defined systems that are fielded, operational, and scaling fast. The EW team operates at a tempo the defense industry isn't used to: delivering novel system configurations into active operations in days, not months, and iterating based on direct operator feedback from the field. Production is scaling from hundreds to thousands of units, and the software systems that connect these platforms to operators and command-and-control networks are scaling with them.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Build and design immersive image-viewing experiences in a web-based platform
• Take ownership of initial, well-scoped projects with clear objectives. Work closely with colleagues to deliver results, understanding the importance of teamwork in achieving success
• Partner with end-users to turn needs into features while balancing user experience with engineering constraints
• Travel up to 30% of time to build, test, and deploy capabilities in the real world

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 8+ years of relevant experience
• Experience working on frontend applications, preferably data-intensive or map-based systems
• Broad experience in delivering functional outcomes
• Experience working on backend web services and understands API design
• A mindset towards innovative approaches of problem solving
• Degree in Computer Science, Operations Research, Electrical Engineering, related technical degree, or equivalent experience
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Partners with UX designers and contributes to user experience reasoning; translating design concepts into technical implementations.
• Experience building real-time, high-performance DSP visualizations
• Typescript library development
