Anduril Industries
Scientific Software Engineer
About this role
Anduril Industries seeks a Scientific Software Engineer to design and implement advanced multi-target tracking algorithms and real-time software systems for air and missile defense radar. You'll develop production-grade tracking solutions that process massive sensor data streams and protect critical military assets.
What you'll do
- Design and implement advanced tracking algorithms for multi-target detection, track fusion, and threat discrimination
- Develop high-performance real-time software systems that process radar data and track dozens to hundreds of simultaneous targets
- Build modeling and simulation environments to validate tracking performance and identify system improvements
- Collaborate with radar engineers and system architects to integrate tracking solutions into defense systems
- Optimize tracking software for performance-critical, millisecond-sensitive environments
- Communicate technical concepts and trade-offs to cross-functional teams and customers
What they're looking for
- C++ programming
- Python programming
- Linear algebra and probability theory
- Statistics and signal processing
- Multi-target tracking algorithms
- Real-time software systems design
- Software engineering fundamentals (design patterns, testing, version control, debugging)
- Radar systems understanding
