Senior Software Engineer - Tracking & Estimation - Anduril Industries
Boston, MA 02108
About the Job
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.About the TeamThe Tracking team develops the tracking and fusion software that runs on robots in real-time at the edge
We deploy multi-domain, multi-platform tracking capabilities and integrate third-party sensors to produce the consolidated track picture that drives autonomous decision making
We facilitate development through the entire product development lifecycle, from sensor modeling and data analysis through algorithm and software design to testing, deployment and production/sustainment.We collaborate with machine learning, computer vision, mission autonomy, operations analysis, hardware systems, test, and other teams at Anduril
Our code runs on a variety of Anduril robots and systems in dozens of deployments spanning multiple continents, so you’ll see your impact in the real world!About the RoleWe are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Tracking & Estimation Engineer to join our dynamic engineering team
