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. #### WHAT YOU’LL DO
Define and drive the architectural vision for large-scale C2 software systems that ingest, fuse, and act on data from diverse sensors in real time
Lead the design and implementation of performant, real-time, numerics-heavy algorithms in Rust and/or C++ at production scale
Partner closely with research scientists to transition advanced algorithms (target tracking, state estimation, sensor-effector pairing, asset scheduling) from prototype into tactical, deployed code
Make high-leverage architectural trade-offs across performance, modularity, testability, and maintainability for mission-critical, edge-deployed systems
Mentor and technically lead senior engineers, setting coding standards, review processes, and CI/CD best practices across the team
Engage directly with customers (DoD agencies, Army, Air Force, MDA, SCO) to ensure successful outcomes for mission-critical needs
Troubleshoot complex, real-world system issues spanning software, math assumptions, sensor behavior, and networking
Contribute to all phases of the software development lifecycle including prototyping, modeling & simulation, field testing, and deployment
Help shape hiring and technical growth of the broader C2 organization as it hyper scales
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
10+ years of software engineering experience with a Bachelor's degree (or equivalent) in Computer Science, Applied/Computational Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Controls/Dynamical Systems, Statistics, or related field

Proven experience architecting large-scale, production-grade codebases in real-time or high-performance environments
Deep experience writing performant, real-time software with numerics-heavy algorithms
Strong foundation in applied mathematics: probability theory, linear algebra, optimization, differential equations (ODEs), and statistics
Experience with CI/CD, unit testing, git version control, and microservices
Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
M.S. or Ph.D. in a technical field (dual academic background in software + math highly valued)
Domain expertise in target tracking, state estimation, Kalman filters, sensor fusion, or signal processing
Prior DoD program experience (Army, Air Force, MDA, SCO, Navy)
Experience with GPU / CUDA kernel development
We request transcripts as part of the early application process to understand your academic background and how your coursework supports the skills deemed critical for the role. Transcripts help us assess your technical and analytical abilities, complementing our interview process in which we also evaluate practical experience and cultural fit. If you choose not to share your transcripts, you will need to provide detailed information regarding your academic performance in relevant courses, including projects and coursework specifics, to ensure we evaluate your academic accomplishments properly. If you do provide academic transcripts, feel free to redact non-technical information (e.g., student ID, dates, non-technical coursework, etc.). Unofficial transcripts obtained online acceptable for this assessment.
