Senior Robotics Software Engineer, Thunder

Job description

ABOUT THE TEAM The Maneuver Dominance team is building Thunder - an autonomous attack rotorcraft built to fight alongside crewed combat aviation to deliver overwhelming mass effects deep beyond the front lines. The team in London builds the Mission System and the autonomy that makes aircraft like Thunder work. Autonomy is only as good as the link that carries it. Thunder is a compact airframe with weapons, sensors and radios competing for the same antenna real estate, flying low and in formation, in a spectrum that is actively contested. That is the problem you would own. ABOUT THE JOB Anduril is seeking a Senior Robotics Software Engineer to join the Thunder Team at our Costa Mesa HQ.

Job requirements

  • Strong background with focus in Physics, Mathematics, and/or Motion Planning to inform modeling & simulation (M&S) and physical systems.
  • Developing and testing multi-agent autonomous systems and deploying in real-world environments.
  • Feature and algorithm development with an understanding of behavior trees.
  • Developing software/hardware for flight systems and safety critical functionality.
