Anduril Industries
Software Engineer, Robotics Tracking and Fusion
About this role
Anduril is seeking a Software Engineer specializing in robotics tracking and sensor fusion to develop advanced algorithms for target tracking, state estimation, and multi-sensor data fusion in defense applications. You'll lead a small team, prototype cutting-edge solutions, and deliver real-time systems that transform raw sensor data into actionable intelligence for mission-critical use cases.
What you'll do
- Lead and influence direction of a small engineering team with expertise in target tracking and state estimation
- Prototype and deploy state-of-the-art algorithms for tracking, multi-sensor fusion, and state estimation in agile environments
- Develop high-performance real-time software for tactical systems, simulations, and decision support tools
- Design robust filters, estimators, and probabilistic systems to extract insights from noisy or incomplete sensor data
- Validate technology benefits through high-fidelity simulations and rigorous statistical analysis
- Customize algorithms for mission-critical use cases and integrate tracking solutions into the broader software lifecycle
What they're looking for
- Target tracking algorithms (Kalman filters, particle filters, JPDA, MHT, PHD filters)
- C/C++, Python, and MATLAB programming
- Bayesian filtering and recursive state estimation techniques
- Sensor fusion from diverse sources (radar, lidar, EO/IR)
- Applied mathematics (linear algebra, optimization, probability, stochastic processes)
- Signal processing and machine learning for tracking and classification
- Big data pipelines and NoSQL databases
- Adaptive filtering, estimation theory, and control systems
