As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

Responsibilities

• Research or coursework in assembly sequence planning, disassembly planning, or motion planning. If you know what a non-directional blocking graph is, or have read Wilson and Latombe or the STAAT work by Romney and colleagues, we want to talk to you.
• Publications at ICRA, IROS, RSS, SoCG, or Solid and Physical Modeling, or in the Computer-Aided Design journal.
• Experience with Eigen, OpenCASCADE, OpenVDB, CGAL, or a collision or bounding volume hierarchy library.
• Parallel programming in C++ with Intel TBB, OpenMP, or standard threads, with attention to determinism.
• Familiarity with CAD data: boundary representations versus tessellated meshes, and formats such as STEP and JT.
• Experience with CMake, GoogleTest, and reproducible builds. Nix is a plus.
• Python for tooling and analysis, e.g. NumPy and trimesh.
• Familiarity with infinitesimal motion analysis or rotational motions in assembly planning.

Benefits

• Highly competitive equity grants are included in the majority of full-time offers; and are considered part of Anduril's total compensation package.
• Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including comprehensive, competitive benefits package (available at little to no cost to employees) to ensure you’re supported in health, recovery, and whatever comes next.
