Anduril Industries is a defense technology company transforming U.S. and allied military capabilities through advanced technology. The Air & Missile Defense Radar team develops cutting-edge tracking algorithms and software systems that detect, track, and characterize airborne threats in real-time.
In this role, you will design and implement advanced tracking algorithms for novel air and missile threats, including multi-target tracking, track fusion, and discrimination techniques. You'll develop high-performance, real-time software systems that process radar sensor data and maintain tracks on dozens to hundreds of simultaneous targets. Your work will span building and leveraging modeling & simulation environments to validate tracking performance, collaborating directly with radar engineers and system architects to integrate tracking solutions into end-to-end defense systems, and optimizing tracking software for performance-critical environments where milliseconds matter.
You will communicate technical concepts and trade-offs to cross-functional teams, program leadership, and customers to drive informed decisions, and participate in customer demonstrations and field tests to ensure successful deployment and operational effectiveness. This is a production-focused role where you'll deploy systems that government and industry customers depend on for mission-critical operations.
