Description
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.
We are looking for a Systems Engineer - Machine Learning to join our rapidly growing team in Huntsville, AL or Colorado Springs, CO.
In this role, you will be responsible for bridging systems engineering, applied physics, and mathematical and machine learning to solve complex missile defense problems.
Responsibilities:
- Research, develop, and deploy complex machine learning models such as generative AI, reinforcement learning, deep neural networks, physics-based neural models.
- Formulate and solve complex physics problems using mathematical techniques.
- Work on object detection, tracking, and discrimination, weapon-target assignment, sensor allocation, and fire control scheduling.
- Develop components of system architecture that ingest raw/processed sensor data, execute track fusion, and perform threat classification.
- Design, conduct, and defend rigorous trade studies, sensitivity analyses, and parametric evaluations to determine system boundaries and validate performance.
- Rapidly translate mathematical equations into clean, functional code (Python / C++) to run non-customer-facing modeling, simulation, and algorithm verification.
- Bridge the gap between low-level physics/threat intelligence inputs and high-level mission outputs.
Requirements:
- Currently possesses and is able to maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
- 5+ years of relevant engineering experience
- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, or a related quantitative field.
- Strong mastery of applied mathematics, physics, and programming.
- Proficiency in Python and/or C++, Pytorch (or TensorFlow), coding GPUs, multi-agent reinforcement learning, mathematical modeling, experience implementing foundation models, and algorithm development.
- Exposure to missile defense concepts, radar/sensor processing, flight dynamics, threat intelligence, discrimination algorithms, sensor tracking algorithms, kill assessment, integrated algorithms into operational systems, or fire control systems.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Top Secret / SCI eligible
Benefits:
- Comprehensive, competitive benefits package
- Highly competitive equity grants
- Top-tier benefits for full-time employees
