Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. 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.
ABOUT THE TEAM
At Anduril's Tactical Recon and Strike (TRS) team, we're pushing the boundaries of aerial drone technology. We're the driving force behind groundbreaking products like Ghost, Anvil, Bolt, and Altius, taking them from concept to fully operational systems that are reshaping the landscape of defense and security. Our team tackles the entire spectrum of small drone development (Group 1-3), from the drones themselves to the critical equipment needed for testing, deployment, and operation. The Vehicle Autonomy team at Anduril develops the core robotics technologies that enable Anduril’s products (e.g., Ghost, Altius) to conduct a wide variety of missions. We are looking for Full Stack Engineers to join our team. As a Full Stack Engineer at Anduril you will be architecting and building out user interface applications from backend to frontend, deploying them to users, and making sure they're meeting users' requirements. What You'll Do
Design, build, test, and deploy real-time, map-based user interfaces for displaying and interacting with sensor data and controlling Altius aircraft in the Lattice UI for direct control for engineers and tactical control for end users. Help define foundational software architectures, visual designs, and user experience workflows for Altius, working directly with chief engineers, program managers, flight test engineers, and end-user customers to demonstrate capability and iterate on feedback. Work directly with web frontend technologies like TypeScript/React, high-performance backend technologies like C++/Rust/Golang, and software product lifecycle technologies like NixOS/CircleCI/Docker. Work alongside engineers using multiple other full stack technologies like Java/Kotlin/Android and C++/Qt. Test and evaluate your software at multiple levels of rigor using simulations, benchtop hardware, and live flight assets. Required Qualifications
Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or another related technical degree. Experience developing software for user interface applications, especially high-traffic, data-intensive, or map-based systems Proficiency with modern Web frontend programming languages including HTML/CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, and React Framework. Proficiency with modern backend/middleware programming languages such as C++, Rust, or Golang Familiarity with client/server networking technologies and relationships such as TCP/UDP/Multicast, HTTP (REST), or protobuf/gRPC. Proven ability to empathize with users, to break down user needs into software features, and to balance the ideal user experience with practical engineering constraints. Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance Preferred Qualifications
Experience working with the DoD where safety is paramount, regulations must be balanced, and operational environments are tightly controlled. Experience in a startup or small company working environment where deadlines are tight, requirements are open-ended, and the teams are often fewer than 10 people. Experience with 3D geospatial analysis and mapping software such as ArcGIS, Cesium, MapBox, or TAK. Experience developing user interface software that does not require Internet access or has local/offline functionality. Exposure to technologies related to Altius such as fixed-wing flight mechanics, UAV control, mesh networking, and launch systems. Exposure to aviation such as a hobbyist RC piloting, holding a Private Pilot License or Part 107 Remote Pilot License. Anduril offers a competitive salary range of $168,000 - $252,000 USD and a comprehensive benefits package, including Platinum Healthcare Benefits, Basic Life/AD&D and long-term disability insurance, extremely generous company holiday calendar, and more. Anduril is an equal-opportunity employer committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. All qualified applicants will be treated with respect and receive equal consideration for employment without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, uniform service, Veteran status, age, or any other protected characteristic per federal, state, or local law.
