About the Role
About The Team
At Anduril, our Software Engineers specialize in solving complex, real-world problems through cutting-edge algorithms and intelligent software integrations. Operating in small, innovative teams, we push the boundaries of what's possible to deliver advanced technologies with mission-critical applications. Our commitment doesn't end with academic research or proof-of-concept experiments; we measure our success by the real-world impact of our deployed solutions.
Inspired by Arthur C. Clarke's vision — "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" — we aim to achieve groundbreaking results in target tracking, state estimation, and situational awareness. We are currently seeking highly talented technologists to join our mission and redefine the future of defense technology.
What You Will Do
- Define and influence the direction of a small team, leveraging your subject-matter expertise in target tracking and state estimation.
- Architect, maintain, and evolve complex software systems, refactoring existing codebases to improve performance, maintainability, and scalability.
- Prototype and deploy state-of-the-art algorithms for tracking, multi-sensor data fusion, and state estimation in agile, iterative development environments.
- Develop high-performance Rust software for real-time systems, ranging from tactical implementations to simulation environments and decision support tools.
- Design and implement robust filters, estimators, and probabilistic reasoning systems that enable actionable insights from noisy, ambiguous, or incomplete sensor data.
- Apply software design patterns and architectural best practices to manage technical debt and guide the evolution of production systems over time.
- Analyze system performance using high-fidelity simulations, innovative modeling tools, and rigorous statistical techniques to validate the benefits of our technology.
- Drive customer success by customizing algorithms and software for mission-critical use cases, including real-time tracking and sensor fusion.
- Integrate tracking and estimation technologies into the broader software development lifecycle, from requirements definition through testing and optimization.
- Translate technical progress into clear, actionable insights for diverse stakeholders, including colleagues and end-users.
