Lead Systems Engineer, Battlespace

ABOUT THE TEAM

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 whats possible to deliver advanced technologies with mission-critical applications. Our commitment doesnt end with academic research or proof-of-concept experiments; we measure our success by the real-world impact of our deployed solutions. Inspired by Arthur C. Clarkes vision Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic we aim to achieve groundbreaking results in path planning route optimization and autonomous mission execution at the command and control layer. We are currently seeking highly talented technologists to join our mission and redefine the future of defense technology.

ABOUT THE JOB

We are looking to hire a Systems Engineer Lead to join our rapidly growing team in Broomfield CO. The Battlespace Awareness team develops tactical sense- and decision-making software that provides advanced capabilities for Andurils command and control (C2) products. This software must work with various combinations of compute hardware connected sensor/effector hardware and supporting software services. It must be effective robust and safe across various configurations mission sets and customer experiences. We need systems engineers who are capable of internalizing the nuances of these complex systems and ensuring the technical success of an end-to-end solution.

WHAT YOULL DO

The Systems Engineer Lead will support the design development and validation of advanced algorithmic capabilities including tracking sensor/effector management battlespace optimization and threat forecasting. This role bridges system design requirements management modeling and simulation (M&S) and verification & validation (V&V) activities. You will integrate emerging capabilities into new products and system configurations. You will lead requirements decomposition across cross-functional teams defining success in the face of ambiguity. You will develop test plans acceptance criteria and analysis tools to evaluate system performance using both simulation and collected field data. You will use data-driven analysis to verify customer requirements are met and create artifacts to trace performance as the system evolves You will own systems end-to-end bringing an ability to identify and solve problems between the seams and push through to reach an ultimate desired outcome.

• You will develop and execute high-fidelity modeling and simulation environments to validate algorithm performance evaluate system capabilities against requirements and predict real-world performance before field deployment
• Lead requirements decomposition across cross-functional teams defining success in the face of ambiguity.
• Responsible for scoping ideal system laydown scrutinizing system performance and ensuring the deployed system is meeting customer requirements.
• Own systems end to end with the ability to identify and solve problems between the seams and push through to reach an ultimate outcome.

• 8 years of hardware and software systems engineering experience. Degree in Engineering Physics Robotics Mathematics or a related field.
• 1 year of people management experience
