Entry Level Systems Engineer, C2 Networking, Clearance Eligible
Job description
Our team develops unmanned aerial systems capable of terminal guidance, long range intelligence collection, precision navigation, and unsupervised autonomy. Anvil, Altius, Ghost, and other developmental UAS platforms are built to operate in remote environments with limited user input, driving requirements for reliability and autonomy. We have developed an autonomy stack that receives user intent, responds to detections processed at the edge, and coordinates flight patterns for groups of assets. We are looking for entry level graduates who are eager to learn the Anduril-way and quickly develop their skills to contribute in a fast-paced environment.
Anduril Industries is a defense technology…
