Anduril Industries is a defense technology company focused on transforming military capabilities with advanced technology. We are seeking Software Engineers to build the core Command and Control software for our Lattice platform, which powers aerial and multi-domain robotic systems. This role bridges the gap between hardware and human operators, with software running on vehicles for real-time telemetry and autopilot tasks, and on Ground Control Stations for mission planning and fleet management. We are also pioneering the integration of GenAI agents for natural language control of autonomous assets. This is a highly autonomous role where you will build, ship, and see your code run on physical hardware deployed in the world.

Responsibilities

  • Build the core Command and Control software for the Lattice platform.
  • Develop software that runs on vehicles for real-time telemetry, health, and autopilot tasks.
  • Develop software for Ground Control Stations to enable operators to plan missions, visualize maps, manage fleets, and orchestrate autonomous behaviors.
  • Pioneer the integration of GenAI agents into systems for natural language interfaces.
  • Collaborate with specialist teams like Perception, Motion Planning, Hardware, and Test Engineering.

Requirements

  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
  • Strong engineering background in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, or Physics.
  • 3+ years of backend experience in Python, C++, Rust, Go, or Java.
  • Experience building software solutions involving significant data processing and analysis.
  • Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems with a bias toward rapid delivery and iteration.
  • Desire to collaborate with team members to deliver novel software capabilities to ambiguous problems.

Benefits
