Anduril Industries is seeking a Site Reliability Engineer to join the Imaging team, which builds and deploys state-of-the-art camera and sensor systems for U.S. and allied military applications. This role is the frontline for keeping fielded imaging systems operational and reliable in deployed environments.
You will own the health and uptime of deployed imaging systems, serving as the escalation point for field personnel and customer-support teams when systems malfunction. The work spans the full stack—from bare-metal hardware and firmware to networked services and cloud integrations. You'll diagnose issues that could originate anywhere in the system architecture, from networking failures at remote deployment sites to sensor calibration problems to software defects.
Key responsibilities include triaging and resolving production issues in fielded systems, running point on escalations from support channels, building runbooks and diagnostics to prevent recurring problems, maintaining the boundary between field support and product engineering (owning everything short of code fixes), and feeding reliability insights back into product design. You'll work closely with the lead SRE on a small, high-trust team with real opportunity to shape how imaging reliability scales.
The role requires comfort with ambiguity and working under pressure. You might triage a networking failure in the morning, guide a field operator through troubleshooting over the phone in the afternoon, and harden runbooks for the rest of the week. Approximately 15% travel is expected for field support and deployment windows.
Required qualifications: 3+ years in SRE, DevOps, field/systems engineering, or production support of deployed hardware/software systems with real post-deployment ownership; strong Linux fundamentals and networking troubleshooting skills (IP, routing, VPNs, constrained environments); demonstrated ability to diagnose issues across system boundaries without full visibility; comfort with structured on-call rotations including after-hours/weekend coverage; strong written and verbal communication for remote troubleshooting and documentation; eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret clearance.
