Desirable

• The Vehicle Autonomy (Robotics) team at Anduril develops aerial and ground-based robotic systems. The team is responsible for taking products like Ghost, Anvil, and our Sentry Tower from paper sketches to operational systems
• We work in close coordination with specialist teams like Perception, Autonomy, and Manufacturing to solve some of the hardest problems facing our customers. We are looking for software engineers, roboticists, and front-end and mobile developers who are excited about creating a powerful robotics platform that can be tasked and viewed in real-time through a variety of interfaces
• Design, build, test, and deploy real-time, map-based user interfaces for displaying and interacting with sensor data and controlling Ghost aircraft from an Android application through the Android Tactical Assault Kit’s (ATAK) plugin ecosystem to enable tactical control for end users
• Define and implement APIs for Ghost’s network communications, real-time telemetry, vehicle configuration, sensor/payload control with full motion video streaming, manual controls, and autonomous tasking
• Help define foundational software architectures, visual designs, and user experience/interaction workflows for Ghost, working directly with chief engineers, product designers, program managers, flight test engineers, and end-user customers to demonstrate capability and iterate on feedback
• Work directly with Android frontend technologies like Jetpack Compose, high-performance backend technologies like Java/Kotlin/C++/Rust, and software product lifecycle technologies likes CMake/gradle/NixOS/CircleCI/Docker
• Work directly with the Android Tactical Assault Kit (ATAK) SDK and the TAK Product Centers’ developer community (see TAK.gov for more information)
• Work alongside engineers using multiple other full stack technologies like TypeScript/React, C++/Qt, and C#/.NET
• Test and evaluate your software at multiple levels of rigor using simulations, benchtop hardware, and live flight assets
