Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.
About The Team
We build Lattice - the foundation for everything we do as a defense technology company. Our engineers are talented, hard-working and above all, motivated by the prospect of seeing their work rapidly deployed on the front lines. Our team is not just building an experiment in waiting - we deploy what we build on the Southern border, Iraq, Ukraine and more.
We have open roles on a variety of teams within Platform Engineering - ranging from core infrastructure, distributed systems, embedded computing, robotics autonomy systems and more. We hire motivated people - those who hold a higher bar for themselves than anyone else could hold for them. If you love building infrastructure, platform services, or just working in high performing engineering cultures - you should apply!
Required Qualifications

• Have at least 3+ years working in C++

• Experience building scalable backend software systems with various data storage and processing requirements.
• Experience with industry standard cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), CI/CD tools, and software infrastructure fundamentals (networking, security, distributed systems)
• Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and established code bases
• Experience implementing robot or autonomous vehicle testing frameworks in a software-in-the-loop or hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) environment
