## Description

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

As a Systems Engineer on the Tactical Reconnaissance Systems (TRS) team, you will be the critical bridge between subsystems, ensuring hardware and software performance, reliability, and integration meet our aggressive program goals.

## Responsibilities

### Hardware & Software Assurance

- Own cross-functional integration between Mechanical, GNC, Aero, Electrical, and Beacon teams with DevTest and Analysts

- Drive specific, scientifically rigorous subsystem and component-level testing in advance of full system integration and flight tests

- Define and execute vehicle qualification strategy and inform vehicle acceptance criteria

- Ensure P95 reliability goals through proactive test planning and validation

- Understand software scope of work and align with overall program goals

- Modify software sprints and architecture based on program priorities and customer requirements

### System Modeling & Performance Analysis

- Build all-up reliability models based on subsystem testing data and forward modeling

- Develop system models that capture the interplay between performance and cost (e.g., wing stiffness impact on performance vs. manufacturing cost)

- Define payload weight and inertia budgets with precision

- Develop latency budgets and performance envelopes for software subsystems

- Establish ATP bounds for hardware based on derived performance and reliability targets

- Make architectural decisions that balance capability, schedule, and technical risk

### Requirements & Customer Interface

- Interface regularly with Growth team to iterate on requirements and system architecture

- Focus on GSE, logistics, and end-user experience requirements

- Iterate on autonomy behaviors to meet Growth demands and build up capabilities for near-term commitments

- Drive flow-down analysis per vehicle subsystem to inform testing requirements

### Cross-Subsystem Problem Solving

- Dive deep into problems spanning hardware and software subsystems (perception, localization, planning, controls, sensor/servo integration)

- Get hands-on: spin up mission sim environments, debug cross-system issues, prototype solutions

- Develop mission profiles and validate them in simulation environments

- Correlate and extrapolate real-world test data through appropriate system modeling

- Unblock teams by bridging gaps between software engineering and hardware constraints

### Configuration Management & Program Execution

- Track hardware deltas from PDR → CDR → Shipment

- Ensure proper hardware delivery and test tracking across the program

- Sit in software sprints and unblock teams through systems-level thinking

- Follow up on derived performance and reliability targets for all subsystems

- Define on-the-line testing that ensures field performance.

## Required Qualifications

- 3-5+ years of experience in aerospace, robotics, or defense systems development

- Experience across multiple disciplines (hardware and software subsystems)

- Strong foundation in system-level testing, qualification, and reliability analysis

- Ability to make architectural decisions and drive cross-functional problem solving

- Hands-on problem solver with bias toward action over documentation

- Ability to influence without authority across engineering teams

- Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related technical field

## Preferred Qualifications

- Defense industry experience or familiarity with MIL-STDs

- UAV/UAS or autonomous platform experience

- Background in design and test engineering

- Experience with system modeling, reliability analysis, or MBSE tools

- Exposure to program management or technical leadership

- Advanced degree in relevant engineering discipline

- Experience with embedded systems, ROS, or GNC software
