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.\r\nABOUT THE TEAM\r\nThe Sensor Simulation team at Anduril is building a platform for generating synthetic imagery for a variety of teams across the company. Use cases span a variety of areas, such as SITL (software in the loop) and HITL (hardware in the loop) integration tests of our systems, machine learning data generation, and user training simulations. Our mission is to close the sim2real gap—building synthetic imagery pipelines so realistic and physically accurate that our autonomy stack can't tell the difference between synthetic and real-world data. This directly accelerates development and validation of Anduril's perception and autonomy capabilities. We're looking for software engineers with strong coding skills and deep, relevant experience who can learn quickly and help build out the platform. Candidates must have hands-on background in robotics, autonomy systems, or game engines—we need versatile generalists who can connect cutting-edge graphics with real-world sensor behavior.\r\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\r\nDevelop and maintain core capabilities in Unreal Engine such as a terrain rendering pipeline, vehicle physics models, and many more\r\nWork with other platform teams at Anduril to ensure our service integrates seamlessly with other core services\r\nIntegrate various plugins and third-party capabilities into our platform, figuring out how to best make use of them and working around or fixing any bugs\r\nCollaborate closely with other teams across the company to enable them to integrate synthetic imagery and bring back lessons learned to help improve our product\r\nIterate on sensor fidelity and environmental realism based on feedback from autonomy teams, bridging the gap between synthetic training data and real-world performance\r\nREQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS\r\nMust have 4+ years of professional C++ programming experience\r\nMust be willing to travel 10% for collaboration across offices\r\nComfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. Strong communication skills are a must.\r\nStrong engineering background from industry or school, ideally in areas such as Computer Science, Software Engineering, Game Design, Robotics.\r\nProven understanding of data structures, algorithms, concurrency, and code optimization\r\nProficiency with Unreal Engine or demonstrated experience in robotics/autonomy systems (e.g., sensor simulation, perception pipelines, SITL/HITL testing)\r\nExperience troubleshooting and analyzing remotely deployed software systems\r\nExperience with various tools for performance analysis and debugging problems (gdb, bpftrace, perf, etc)\r\nEligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance\r\nPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS\r\nMS in Computer Science or Software Engineering\r\nRust programming experience\r\nExperience in a Linux development environment\r\nGPU and graphics programming experience, including languages such as HLSL, Vulkan, or CUDA\r\nFamiliarity with training machine learning models, especially for computer vision use cases\r\nUnderstanding of sensor physics (cameras, LiDAR, radar, EO/IR) and how to model them accurately in simulation\r\nExperience with 3D modeling tools\r\nUS Salary Range: $166,000 — $220,000 USD\r\nThe salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary offer may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations. Highly competitive equity grants are included in the majority of full-time offers; and are considered part of Anduril's total compensation package. Additionally, Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including: At Anduril, we invest in our people. Our comprehensive, competitive benefits package (available at little to no cost to employees) ensures you're supported in health, recovery, and whatever comes next.
