Software Engineer, Sentry Software (Allied Customer Deployment)
Anduril Industries · Irvine, California, United States
About this role
<div class="content-intro"><p>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.</p></div><h2>About The Team</h2> <p>The Sentry Tower Software team develops robotic systems that provide force protection capabilities, monitoring the perimeter of secure areas, land or sea, for approaching people, vehicles, and vessels. We live in a world where security officers are increasingly overwhelmed by sensor data feeds. Our products leverage advanced sensor fusion and autonomy to seamlessly render activity in the environment to Lattice's common operating picture.</p> <h2>About the Job</h2> <p>Sentry Towers protect perimeters for allied partner nations as well as US customers, and those deployments are their own engineering problem. A partner program brings its own site conditions, its own communications and network environment, its own integration requirements, and its own operators, and none of it is solved by shipping the standard configuration and hoping. We're hiring a Software Engineer dedicated to one such program: making our towers work for that customer, in their environment, and keeping them working. This is a customer with no second system to fall back on. When a tower is down, the perimeter it was watching is being watched by people instead, and the fix depends on an engineer who understands both our software and their site.</p> <p>This is a hands-on integration and support role rather than a pure feature-development one. You will own the software configuration for this program's towers, built on our declarative NixOS platform: product configuration, network integration into the customer's environment, payload and sensor setup, and the deployment and update path for systems in the customer's hands. When something doesn't work in the field, you're the engineer who reproduces it, root-causes it, and either fixes it or drives the fix with the team that owns the component.</p> <p>Expect meaningful travel, roughly 30% of your time, much of it extended international trips for installation, integration, and operator support. Some of it is not optional: when a program milestone depends on being on site, you'll be on site. The compensation for that is direct contact with the people using what you build. You will watch an operator use your work, learn things no bug report would have told you, and carry them back.</p> <p>Worth weighing honestly before you apply. This is reactive work by nature: your week can get reorganized by what broke, and the roadmap you planned on Monday is not always the one you follow. You will go deep on one program rather than broad across the product, which builds unusually specific expertise and means your work is...
