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 Maritime Division has assembled a diverse team of experts in software, robotics, artificial intelligence, sensor fusion, and data analysis to create software and hardware solutions that radically evolve the capabilities of our customers. We are fielding the next generation of autonomous systems to tackle the extremely challenging industry demands of maritime operations. Anduril has brought to market a unique, ultra‑long‑range, full‑ocean‑depth underwater vessel platform and a completely refreshed maritime vehicle and flexible manufacturing architecture that scales from 'small' to 'extra‑large' vehicle sizes. Today, Anduril is executing on billion‑dollar contracts while simultaneously performing Robot‑as‑a‑Service (RaaS) AUV operations.

We are seeking to sustain our early successes with deep investment in an expanded product portfolio. These core products, including Dive‑XL, Dive‑LD, Copperhead, Seabed Sentry, and other unannounced systems form the backbone of the Maritime portfolio. The core remit of this team is to architect a true system‑of‑systems that combines and orchestrates disparate sensors and platforms to deliver a coherent effect, enabling the end‑to‑end execution of a variety of autonomous missions in the maritime domain. If you are passionate about solving problems that have real impact and working on systems that directly contribute to achieving national strategic priorities, we want you to join Anduril’s Maritime Division and help us build the future of defense capability.

About the Job

Sr. Software Engineers independently drive the delivery of a variety of software integrated in to our products. This includes autonomy, simulation, data processing, payload integration, and off‑board command and control and decision support. We expect Senior Software Engineers to demonstrate end‑to‑end outcome ownership at the major subsystem or system level. Senior Software Engineers contribute as a technical lead to the rapid architecting, design, delivery, support, and evolution of next generation autonomous platforms through their entire product life‑cycle.

What You’ll Do

• Empathize with end‑users and drive solutions that balance their needs with external constraints, restrictions and requirements in a multi‑stakeholder environment
• Own software enabled solutions that are deployed to customers, optimizing for the delivery of value to the end‑user
• Design and implement scalable software that rapidly delivers capability beyond the scope of current platforms, with a clear path for both architecture and capability evolution over time
• Contribute to the design and development of existing software services across Anduril, with the aim of developing components that are re‑usable across multiple Anduril product lines
• Develop software that runs on‑ and off‑ robotic platforms, using a variety of technologies
• Contribute to the design, implementation and execution of development processes for the initial delivery and subsequent iteration of vehicle and mission software, including full lifecycle testing, monitoring and operation
• Create test and simulation fixtures that operate with both software‑and‑hardware-in-the-loop
• Support vehicle manufacturing and deployment
• Work as a member of a multi‑disciplinary engineering team, including as a mentor for Software Engineers from differing backgrounds
• Travel to co‑locate with end‑users and/or other teams up to 20% of the time
