ABOUT THE JOB
As a Mission Software Engineer, you will solve a wide variety of problems involving networking, autonomy, systems integration, robotics, and more, while making pragmatic engineering tradeoffs along the way. Your efforts will ensure that Anduril products seamlessly work together to achieve a variety of critical outcomes. Above all, Mission Software Engineers are driven by a "Whatever It Takes" mindset-executing in an expedient, scalable, and pragmatic way while keeping the mission top-of-mind and making sound engineering decisions to deliver successful outcomes correctly, on-time, and with high quality.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Own the software solutions that are deployed to customers. Write code to improve products and scale the mission capability to more customers. Collaborate across multiple teams to plan, build, and test complex functionality. Create and analyze metrics that are leveraged for debugging and monitoring. Triage issues, root cause failures, and coordinate next-steps. Partner with end-users to turn needs into features while balancing user experience with engineering constraints. Travel up to 25% of the time to build, test, and deploy capabilities in the real world.
CORE REQUIREMENTS
Strong engineering background from industry or school, ideally in areas/fields such as Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, or Physics. 3+ years working with a variety of programming languages such as Python, C++, Rust, Go, JavaScript, Typescript, etc. Experience building software solutions involving significant amounts of data processing and analysis. Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and established code bases. A desire to work on critical software that has a real-world impact. Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. TS clearance. Must be willing to travel up to 25%.
DESIRED REQUIREMENTS
Strong background with focus in Physics, Mathematics, and/or Motion Planning to inform modeling & simulation (M&S) and physical systems. Developing and testing multi-agent autonomous systems and deploying in real-world environments. Feature and algorithm development with an understanding of behavior trees. Developing software/hardware for flight systems and safety critical functionality. Distributed communication networks and message standards.
