Software Engineer, Maritime

ABOUT THE TEAM

Anduril’s Maritime Division has assembled a diverse team of experts in software, robotics, artificial intelligence, sensor fusion, and data analysis to create software and hardware solutions that evolve the capabilities of our customers. We are fielding autonomous systems to tackle the challenging maritime operations industry. Anduril has brought to market an ultra-long-range, full-ocean-depth underwater vessel platform and a refreshed maritime vehicle and flexible manufacturing architecture that scales from small to extra-large vehicle sizes.

Today, Anduril is executing contracts while performing Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) AUV operations. We are expanding our product portfolio with Dive-XL, Dive-LD, Copperhead, Seabed Sentry, and other systems to enable an end-to-end system-of-systems for autonomous maritime missions.

If you are passionate about solving problems with real impact and working on systems that contribute to national strategic priorities, join Anduril’s Maritime Division to help build the future of defense capability.

Staff Software Engineers lead the delivery of a variety of software integrated into our products, acting as technical leads, highly senior individual contributors, and/or team leads who are also hands-on contributors. This includes autonomy, simulation, data processing, payload integration, and off-board command and control and decision support. We expect Staff Software Engineers to demonstrate end-to-end outcome ownership, driving the rapid architecting, design, delivery, support, and evolution of next generation autonomous platforms through their entire product life-cycle.

• Own customer success through the design and delivery of a multi-year, multi-stakeholder software roadmap spanning across multiple teams.
• Leverage internal product and program-specific engineering teams to rapidly deliver capability beyond the scope of current platforms, with a clear path for architecture and capability evolution over time.
• Partner with external teams, collaborating on interfacing requirements between diverse systems and technologies.
• Drive architecture selection and design for robotic systems, including hardware selection, compute, storage and network architecture, service orchestration and other software platform concerns in a multi-stakeholder environment.
• Contribute to the design and development of a company-wide roadmap for software inputs to autonomous systems.
