Anduril Industries is seeking a Senior Robotics Software Engineer to join the Omen team at their Costa Mesa headquarters. Omen is an autonomous hover-to-cruise air vehicle (AAV) with mass-production contracts, designed for runway-independent operations from ships, beaches, and remote locations.
In this role, you will own mission autonomy systems and services deployed to customers, writing code to improve products and scale capabilities. You'll collaborate across multiple teams to plan, build, and test complex functionality involving networking, autonomy, systems integration, robotics, and perception. Key responsibilities include creating and analyzing metrics for debugging and monitoring, triaging issues and coordinating root-cause analysis, and partnering with end-users to translate needs into features while balancing user experience with engineering constraints.
You'll travel up to 25% of the time to build, test, and deploy capabilities in real-world environments, working with a "Whatever It Takes" mindset to execute in expedient, scalable, and pragmatic ways while keeping the mission top-of-mind.
Required qualifications include 8+ years of professional industry experience with C++ or Rust, a strong engineering background (Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, or Physics), and experience building software solutions involving significant data processing and analysis. You must be able to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and established codebases, and be eligible to obtain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
Preferred experience includes strong backgrounds in Physics, Mathematics, and Motion Planning; developing and testing multi-agent autonomous systems in real-world environments; feature and algorithm development with behavior trees; flight systems and safety-critical software development; and distributed communication networks and message standards.
