Anduril Industries is a defense technology company transforming U.S. and allied military capabilities through advanced technology. The Imaging team builds and fields state-of-the-art camera and sensor systems deployed to solve real security challenges. You'll join the Imaging Interfaces team as a Mission Software Engineer, owning fielded system success end-to-end.
This is not a pure product development role. You will spend meaningful time keeping fielded systems alive, triaging issues across the full stack, and serving as a technical representative for products in integrations with external teams and customers. The work is varied and sometimes ambiguous—you might spend a morning extending a gRPC service, an afternoon diagnosing a time sync issue on a deployed device over the phone with a field operator, and a week traveling to support a customer integration.
Key responsibilities include: owning the health and uptime of deployed imaging systems; developing and extending modular software services that run on edge-compute devices in austere environments; working directly with field operators and non-technical users to diagnose and resolve issues; serving as a subject matter expert in integrations with other products and teams; developing broad fluency across hardware, firmware, networking, and software stacks; and collaborating across firmware, hardware, and platform engineering teams. Travel is expected approximately 15% of the time for field testing and customer integrations.
Required qualifications: 5+ years of software development with meaningful production responsibility; strong Python and C++ skills; 5+ years working in Linux-based environments including bare-metal hardware; demonstrated ability to diagnose and resolve issues across system boundaries without full visibility into every component; strong written and verbal communication skills; willingness to travel 15% of the time; and eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret clearance.
Preferred qualifications include experience with gRPC or similar RPC frameworks, familiarity with systems service management and observability practices on Linux, React/JSX experience, familiarity with Nix or NixOS, and experience supporting fielded or deployed systems.
