Anduril Industries builds advanced autonomous systems and defense technology to protect US and allied forces. Creating the future of national security through AI, robotics, and cutting-edge engineering. Backed by General Catalyst, Lightspeed and a16z.
About the role
Anduril is seeking an experienced Power Controls Engineer to develop and implement advanced control algorithms for high-performance power electronic systems. We're looking for someone with deep expertise in control system modeling and simulation — particularly in Simulink and PLECS — who can take a controls concept from simulation through hardware validation. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- BS in Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, or related discipline
- 5+ years of experience designing and tuning digital control loops for power electronic converters (DC/DC, DC/AC, or motor drives)
- Proficiency in Simulink and/or PLECS for control system modeling, simulation, and analysis
- Strong foundation in control theory — z-domain and s-domain design, bode analysis, state-space methods, and discrete-time implementation considerations
- Hands-on experience with discrete SiC and/or GaN FET-based power stages in the multi-kW range
- Familiarity with military or aerospace environments and standards such as MIL-STD-461, 464, 810, or DO-160
