## Description

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.

The Maneuver Dominance team at Anduril develops operationally relevant, multi-asset autonomy. Omen is Anduril’s hover-to-cruise autonomous air vehicle (AAV) that packs the endurance, payload, and mission flexibility of much larger airplanes into a novel runway-independent Group 3 platform.

As a Staff Software Engineer, you will own software integration of Omen’s airborne counter-UAS effector payload end to end, and build the team around it.

## Responsibilities

- Own and lead the autonomy architecture for Omen’s cUAS dogfighting mission end to end, from first prototype to fielded software.

- Collaborate with the Omen Perception team to develop target tracking and perception.

- Design the intercept guidance and pursuit planning that puts the aircraft in a firing position against a maneuvering target.

- Work alongside the Omen Autonomy team which owns core autonomy systems.

- Own fire control software.

- Hold the sensor-to-shot latency budget.

- Own software interfaces with the payload, vehicle, and mission compute.

- Build the simulation that proves the engagement works before flight.

- Take it to the field.

## Required Qualifications

- 6+ years building software for robotic or autonomous systems.

- Strong engineering background.

- Experience leading multidisciplinary software teams.

- Strong Rust or C++ for real-time and embedded systems.

- Deep experience in target tracking and sensor fusion.

- Experience with guidance, motion planning, or control for fast-moving vehicles.

- Experience integrating and characterizing perception sensors in software.

- Hands-on field test experience.

- Experience as the technical owner of a safety-critical autonomy system.

- Ability to travel about 25%.

- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

## Preferred Qualifications

- Direct experience with fire control, weapon, or effector software.

- Counter-UAS experience.

- Air-to-air autonomy.

- VTOL.

- Experience with gimbal or turret pointing software.

- Familiarity with lead and ballistic solutions.

- Software safety standards.

- Real-time operating systems.

- Simulation tools.
