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 Maneuver Dominance team at Anduril develops operationally relevant, multi-asset autonomy. We are focused on making large groups of autonomous systems work effectively together. We leverage existing Anduril drone platforms like Ghost or Altius, in addition to bringing 3rd party platforms into Anduril's Lattice ecosystem.\r\nAbout the Job\r\nWe are seeking a Robotics Software Engineer to own Verification & Validation (V&V) across the Omen platform. In this role, you will design and own the automated testing infrastructure for our mission software, building Software-in-the-Loop (SITL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) environments that exercise autonomy, hardware interfaces, and full-system behavior before code reaches the field. You will write integration and system-level tests, evaluate autonomy tasking, and ensure our software is mission-ready across every release.\r\nWhat You'll Do\r\nOwn Automated Testing: Architect, build, and maintain the automated test infrastructure for all Omen mission software, from unit tests through full system-level validation.\r\nSITL & HITL Environments: Design Software-in-the-Loop and Hardware-in-the-Loop test environments that exercise autonomy, hardware interfaces, and end-to-end mission scenarios.\r\nHardware Interface Testing: Write tests that exercise hardware interfaces directly, including UART, CANbus, and serial protocols used across our embedded and payload systems.\r\nAutonomy Tasking & Evaluation: Develop tooling and test cases that evaluate autonomy behavior—tasking, decision-making, and mission outcomes—against operational scenarios.\r\nIntegration & System Test: Build integration tests that validate interactions across software, firmware, and hardware components on Omen platforms.\r\nCollaborate Cross-Functionally: Partner with mission software, autonomy, hardware, and platform teams to catch defects early and accelerate the path from commit to flight.\r\nReal-World Deployment: Travel up to 25% to test, debug, and validate systems in operational environments.\r\nIterative Development: Contribute across the entire software lifecycle—writing production code alongside the tests that exercise it, and growing into mission software ownership over time.\r\nTroubleshoot and Debug: Analyze and resolve issues uncovered in test and in the field, ensuring reliability and operational success.\r\nRequired Qualifications\r\nTechnical Expertise: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.\r\nC++ Proficiency: At least 2+ years of hands-on experience writing production-grade C++.\r\nTest Ownership Mindset: Demonstrated experience owning automated testing for production software—including integration tests, system tests, regression suites, and CI infrastructure.\r\nSITL / HITL Experience: Hands-on experience designing or working extensively with Software-in-the-Loop or Hardware-in-the-Loop test environments.\r\nHardware Interfaces: Experience writing software and tests that interact with hardware interfaces such as UART, CANbus, and serial protocols.\r\nV&V Discipline: Working knowledge of verification and validation practices for embedded or mission-critical software.\r\nSystems-Level Thinking: Ability to navigate and contribute to complex systems and established codebases.\r\nReal-World Impact: Passion for building software—and the tests that prove it works—that directly influences mission-critical outcomes.\r\nTravel Flexibility: Willingness to travel up to 25% to test and validate systems.\r\nSecurity Clearance: Must be eligible for a US security clearance.\r\nPreferred Qualifications\r\nPrior Title Background: Experience as an SDET, Systems Integration Test Engineer, Embedded Systems Integration Engineer, Validation Engineer, or Software Integration & Test Engineer.\r\nAerospace/Defense V&V: Familiarity with V&V practices in aerospace or defense, including flight test, range operations, or qualification testing.\r\nAutonomy Evaluation: Experience designing test methodologies for autonomous systems—mission tasking, behavior validation, and scenario-based evaluation.\r\nEmbedded Systems: Experience with embedded Linux, RTOS, or bare-metal development on resource-constrained hardware.\r\nProgramming Skills: Additional experience with Python, Go, or scripting for test automation and tooling.\r\nTest Frameworks & CI: Familiarity with modern test frameworks, hardware test rigs, and CI/CD pipelines for embedded or robotics software.\r\nGrowth into Mission SWE: Interest in growing from V&V ownership into a mission software engineering role over time.\r\nUS Salary Range: $191,000—$253,000 USD\r\nBenefits\r\nAt 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.
