About the role

At Anduril, our Battlespace Awareness Command and Control Software team specializes in solving complex, real-world problems through cutting-edge algorithms and intelligent software integrations. Operating in small, innovative teams, we push the boundaries of what's possible to deliver advanced technologies with mission-critical applications. Our commitment doesn't end with academic research or proof-of-concept experiments; we measure our success by the real-world impact of our deployed solutions.

What they're looking for

  • 3+ years of experience in algorithm design, software development, and mathematical modeling with programming expertise in C/C++ and/or Rust
  • Strong knowledge of path planning techniques, such as graph-based search (A*, D* Lite), sampling-based planners (RRT, RRT*, PRM), and online/real-time replanning approaches
  • Solid understanding of applied mathematics, including linear algebra, optimization, computational geometry, and graph theory
  • Knowledge of vehicle dynamics, kinematic constraints, and control theory as applied to autonomous ground, air, or maritime platforms tasked through C2 systems, including high-speed aerial vehicles
  • Familiarity with map representations, terrain reasoning, state estimation, and the efficient handling of large-scale geospatial and environmental data within distributed C2 architectures
  • Exposure to machine learning as applied to planning and decision-making, including reinforcement learning, learned heuristics, and behavior prediction
