Anduril Industries is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join its Robotics Tracking and Fusion team in Waltham, Massachusetts. You will define and influence the direction of a small team, leveraging deep subject-matter expertise in target tracking and state estimation to deliver mission-critical defense technology.
In this role, you will prototype and deploy state-of-the-art algorithms for tracking, multi-sensor data fusion, and state estimation in agile development environments. You'll develop high-performance software for real-time systems spanning tactical implementations, simulation environments, and decision support tools. Your work will involve designing and implementing robust filters, estimators, and probabilistic reasoning systems that extract actionable insights from noisy, ambiguous, or incomplete sensor data.
You will analyze system performance using high-fidelity simulations, innovative modeling tools, and rigorous statistical techniques to validate technology benefits. A key responsibility is driving customer success by customizing algorithms and software for mission-critical use cases involving real-time tracking and sensor fusion. You'll integrate tracking and estimation technologies into the broader software development lifecycle, from requirements definition through testing and optimization, and translate technical progress into clear insights for diverse stakeholders.
Required qualifications include proficiency in algorithm design, software development, and statistical modeling with expertise in C/C++, Python, and Matlab. You must have strong knowledge of target tracking techniques (Kalman filters, particle filters, JPDA, MHT, PHD filters) and state estimation including Bayesian filtering and sensor fusion. Solid understanding of applied mathematics (linear algebra, optimization, probability, stochastic processes) and signal processing for diverse sensors (radar, lidar, EO/IR) is essential. Experience with big data pipelines, NoSQL databases, machine learning applied to tracking and recognition, and robust systems engineering is required. You must be eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
