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" — experienced engineers who lead by example, mentor others, and stay deeply hands-on in the code — to join in our mission to expand the boundary of what's possible.

What You Will Do

Help shape the technical direction of a small, high-impact team while remaining deeply hands-on in design, implementation, and code review

Mentor and uplevel junior and mid-level engineers through pair programming, code reviews, technical guidance, and architectural discussions

Lead by example by writing production-quality C++ and Python that powers mission-critical systems, while setting the bar for engineering excellence (CI/CD, unit testing, large-codebase collaboration, git workflows)

Prototype state-of-the-art software solutions in an agile development environment and guide the team through the path from prototype to deployed, tactical implementation

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

Drive technical interchange meetings, sprint planning, and customer engagements to ensure successful outcomes for mission-critical needs

Own all aspects of the software development lifecycle, helping the team navigate ambiguity and complex technical trade-offs

Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to colleagues, customers, and non-technical stakeholders

Required Qualifications

8+ years of software engineering experience and a Bachelor's degree or equivalent education/work experience

Demonstrated experience mentoring junior engineers and providing technical leadership on a team, while continuing to contribute as a hands-on individual contributor

Experience supporting and navigating large, complex codebases as part of a collaborative team

Strong proficiency in C/C++ and Python

Direct experience in air and missile defense domains, such as multi-target tracking, sensor fusion, threat classification, kill chain development, or command-and-control systems (e.g., IBCS, Patriot, Aegis, or similar programs)

Big data/NoSQL/database technologies

Software engineering: software design, algorithm implementation, and software analysis, testing, and optimization

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

Preferred Qualifications

Experience leading small teams or technical workstreams while remaining a top individual contributor

Track record of growing engineers through mentorship, code review culture, and technical coaching

Experience with asynchronous programming, parallel programming, and GPU programming

Prior experience deploying software to real-world tactical/edge environments

US Salary Range

$190,000—$252,000 USD
