Posted on: May 3, 2024

Job Description:

The Robotics team at Anduril develops aerial and ground-based robotic systems. The team is responsible for taking products like Ghost, Anvil, and our Sentry Tower from paper sketches to operational systems. We work in close coordination with specialist teams like Perception, Autonomy, and Manufacturing to solve some of the hardest problems facing our customers. We are looking for experienced software engineers and roboticists who are interested in creating a powerful robotics stack that includes computer vision, motion planning, SLAM, controls, estimation, and secure communications.
WHAT YOU'LL DO

• 
  
• Write and maintain core libraries (frame transformations, targeting and guidance, etc.) that all robotics platforms at Anduril will use
  
• Own feature development and rollout for our products - recent examples include building a Software-in-the-Loop simulator for our Anvil product, characterizing and improving Ghost helicopter battery consumption with route planning, designing an autofocus control system for IR cameras.
  
• Design, evaluate, and implement sensor integrations that support operation by both human and autonomous planning agents.
  
• Work closely with our hardware and manufacturing teams during product development, providing quick feedback that contributes to the final hardware design.
