Flexible Software Jobs (NOW HIRING)

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 TEAM
The Tasking Team is part of the Lattice software platform and enables command and control of robots, sensors, and third-party integrations through our flexible, software-defined tasking framework. Our work spans both ground and robot software, creating a unified model for task delivery, state management, and execution reasoning. As a core software capability, the Tasking Team's work directly enables mission-critical operations across all domains, across Anduril products and missions, and developer program partners integrating with the Lattice SDK. Our solutions are designed for real-world deployment in the most demanding operational scenarios, where the ability to maintain command and control of autonomous systems can make the difference between mission success and failure.
ABOUT THE JOB
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our team, where you will design and develop the core task execution framework onboard autonomous vehicles, enabling reliable command and control through our Lattice Autonomy stack. You will collaborate closely with platform teams, autonomy engineers, and end users to create solutions that enable efficient, reliable tasking of autonomous systems in real-world defense scenarios. If you are someone who is self-motivated, holds yourself to high standards, and thrives in a low-structure, high-autonomy environment, then this role is for you.

• Experience building software solutions involving significant amounts of data processing and analysis
• Excellent collaboration skills and ability to work across multiple engineering teams
• A desire to work on critical software that has a real-world impact
• US Persons: Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience with autonomous systems or command and control systems
• Background in developing systems for defense, aerospace, or other mission-critical applications
