Software Engineer, Connected Warfare

Software Engineer, Connected Warfare

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.

About The Team

The Connected Warfare division builds systems to support global command and control missions. We create joint, time sensitive, multi domain, ubiquitous, connected mesh ecosystems. Our ecosystem enables connected warfare with disproportional impact by connecting every robot, human, and sensor in every domain, bringing together hundreds of thousands of end points across the globe. We are the substrate that provides the source of truth for time sensitive decision, effectively transforming the way that militaries close kills chains and enable mission autonomy.

The Menace Platform group is developing a first of its kind Platform built for the tactical edge, where connectivity is contested, latency costs lives, and resilience defines victory. Built on Anduril's field-proven Menace and Voyager systems, and powered by the company's Lattice orchestration framework and distributed Fabric and Data Mesh, the Menace Platform allows warfighters, allies, and partners to deploy applications, share data, and make decisions at machine speed—even when disconnected.
