Senior GNC Software Engineer

<div class=&quot;content-intro&quot;><p>Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology

By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold

Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center

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.</p></div><h1 id=&quot;SoftwareEngineer,PathPlanningC2WIP-ABOUTTHETEAM&quot;><strong>ABOUT THE TEAM</strong></h1>

<p>At Anduril, our Battelspace Awareness Command and Control Software team specializes in solving complex, real-world problems through cutting-edge algorithms and intelligent software integrations

Operating in small, innovative teams, we push the boundaries of whats possible to deliver advanced technologies with mission-critical applications Our commitment doesnt end with academic research or proof-of-concept experiments; we measure our success by the real-world impact of our deployed solutions

Inspired by Arthur C Clarkes vision — &quot;Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic&quot; — we aim to achieve groundbreaking results in path planning, route optimization, and autonomous mission execution at the command and control layer

We are currently seeking highly talented technologists to join our mission and redefine the future of defense technology.<br>&nbsp;</p>
