- Full-time
The Robotics team at Anduril develops and integrates software into aerial, ground and maritime based robotic systems. The team is responsible for taking both existing products (e.g., Ghost, Anvil, Dive, etc) and clean sheet designs from paper sketches to operational systems. We work in close coordination with internal teams like Perception, Autonomy, and Manufacturing as well as third party UXV developers to solve some of the hardest problems facing our customers. We are looking for software engineers and roboticists excited about building, augmenting, and deploying our robust robotics stack onto mission critical platforms that include computer vision, motion planning, SLAM, controls, estimation, and secure communications.THE TEAM:WHAT IS AIS?
Anduril Intelligence Systems is one of Anduril's Business Lines and is focused on positioning Anduril as a lead provider of specialized engineering and products for intelligence community customers. We work with IC customers to understand their requirements, shape their concepts of operation, and delivery exquisite capability across their problem set. We aim to develop and deploy critically needed capabilities that address our customers' most difficult technology requirements.WHAT YOU"LL DO:
- Write and maintain core libraries (frame transformations, targeting and guidance, etc.) that all robotics platforms at Anduril will use
- Select, assess and integrate both hardware and software for various sensors/payloads into both Anduril/non-Anduril UXVs/systems
- Own major feature development and rollout of large features for our products - recent examples include building a Software-in-the-Loop simulator for our Anvil product and characterizing and improving Ghost helicopter battery consumption with route planning
