Description
As a Senior Manufacturing Test Software Engineer within Warfighter Systems (Eagle Eye), you will be the technical anchor for the software infrastructure used to validate critical defence hardware.
You will own the hands-on execution of migrating, refactoring, and bridging existing LabVIEW test capabilities into modern Python environments.
The software you write and deploy will directly impact the speed, yield, and reliability of the tactical systems delivered to the warfighter.
This is a highly collaborative, technical execution role.
You will partner with Product Software/Firmware teams to embed testability into products, and Centralized Test Software teams to integrate the factory floor with enterprise-level test runners, CI/CD pipelines, and data infrastructure.
Responsibilities
- Deploy Solutions for the Warfighter: Ensure 100% mission readiness of tactical hardware by deploying bulletproof, highly repeatable automated test software to the production floor.
- Bridge the LabVIEW-to-Python Gap: Write integration layers, wrappers, and APIs to run and monitor legacy LabVIEW test sequences within modern, Python-based test runners and frameworks.
- Drive Test Maturity with Centralized SW Teams: Partner with Anduril's centralized software and test infrastructure organisations to adopt, co-develop, and deploy standardised test frameworks, unified database schemas, and modern deployment tools (Git, Docker, CI/CD) on the production floor.
- Implement Real-Time Data Visualization & SPC: Build interactive test dashboards and integrate Statistical Process Control (SPC) engines to track test parameter drift, monitor process capability, and proactively identify manufacturing anomalies and yield-killers before hardware escapes to the field.
- Collaborate with Product SW & Firmware Teams: Engage directly with product software engineers during the design phase to define and implement test interfaces, diagnostic APIs, and built-in self-test (BIST) routines within product firmware.
- Architect Reusable Test Infrastructure: Develop and maintain core software libraries, instrument drivers, and test templates.
- Deep-Dive Debugging: Own the software health of the production floor.
Requirements
- Mission-Driven: You understand that a software bug on the test line can result in a hardware failure in the field.
- B.S. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
- 8+ years of professional experience writing, debugging, and deploying test automation software.
- Proficiency in Python (developing applications, OOP, API integration) and LabVIEW (software architecture, debugging, actor framework or state machines).
- Experience collaborating with cross-functional software teams to integrate local hardware scripts with centralised, enterprise software systems.
- Proven experience writing driver software for laboratory/production equipment.
- Solid grasp of modern software engineering practices: Git, unit testing, CI/CD pipelines, and software release management.
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience working with gRPC, Protocol Buffers, or RESTful APIs for hardware-to-software communication.
- Familiarity with containerisation (Docker) and deploying software to edge computers on a factory floor.
- Experience scaling hardware test suites from NPI to high-rate production.
- Currently possesses and is able to maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
