Estimation and Tracking Engineer, Intelligence Systems

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.

WHAT IS AIS?

Anduril Intelligence Systems (AIS) is focused on positioning Anduril as a lead provider of specialized engineering and products for Intelligence Community (IC) customers. We work within the IC to understand their requirements, shape their concepts of operation, and deliver exquisite capability across their problem set. We aim to develop and deploy critically needed capabilities that address our customers’ most pressing national security requirements.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Estimation and Tracking engineers at Anduril develop cutting edge software for autonomous operation and situational awareness. We apply a variety of both classical and deep learning techniques to make sense of multi-spectral sensor inputs for autonomous detection, classification, and common-operating-picture synthesis and management. You will collaborate with Intelligence Systems customers and functional experts across the org (radars, signal processing, tracking) to build, refine, and deliver sensor fusion algorithms to Intelligence Community customers.
