Anduril Industries
Software Engineer, Air & Missile Defense
About this role
Anduril Industries seeks a Software Engineer to develop advanced tracking algorithms and real-time software systems for air and missile defense radar. You'll design multi-target tracking solutions that process massive sensor data streams to detect and characterize airborne threats, working on production-grade systems deployed for mission-critical defense operations.
What you'll do
- Design and implement advanced multi-target tracking algorithms for novel air and missile threats
- Develop high-performance, real-time software systems that process radar sensor data and maintain tracks on dozens to hundreds of simultaneous targets
- Build and leverage modeling and simulation environments to validate tracking performance and identify improvements
- Collaborate with radar engineers and system architects to integrate tracking solutions into end-to-end defense systems
- Optimize tracking software for performance-critical, latency-sensitive environments
- Communicate technical concepts and trade-offs to cross-functional teams, leadership, and customers
What they're looking for
- C++ and Python programming
- Multi-target tracking algorithms
- Signal processing and sensor fusion
- Linear algebra, probability, and statistics
- Real-time software systems design
- Software engineering fundamentals (design patterns, testing, version control)
- Modeling and simulation
- Performance optimization
