Anduril Industries is seeking a Senior Software Engineer specializing in sensor fusion to join a small, high-impact team developing state-of-the-art defense technology. You will help shape the technical direction of the team while remaining deeply hands-on in design, implementation, and code review. Your responsibilities include mentoring junior and mid-level engineers through pair programming, code reviews, and architectural discussions, while writing production-quality C++ and Python code that powers mission-critical systems.
You will prototype state-of-the-art software solutions in an agile environment and guide the team from prototype to deployed tactical implementation. The role spans high-performance software across tactical systems and web applications, leveraging high-fidelity modeling, simulation environments, and innovative analysis tools. You will drive technical interchange meetings, sprint planning, and customer engagements to ensure successful outcomes for mission-critical needs, own all aspects of the software development lifecycle, and communicate complex technical concepts to colleagues, customers, and non-technical stakeholders.
Required qualifications include 8+ years of software engineering experience with a Bachelor's degree or equivalent, demonstrated experience mentoring junior engineers while contributing as a hands-on individual contributor, and strong proficiency in C/C++ and Python. You must have expertise in big data/NoSQL/database technologies, software design and optimization, machine learning (supervised/unsupervised learning, clustering, classification), applied mathematics (differential equations, linear algebra, optimization, statistics), and engineering fundamentals (controls, estimation theory, digital signal processing). Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret SCI security clearance is required.
Preferred qualifications include experience leading small teams or technical workstreams as a top individual contributor, a track record of growing engineers through mentorship and code review culture, experience with asynchronous/parallel/GPU programming, and prior experience deploying software to real-world tactical/edge environments.
