Company: Anduril Industries
Role: Senior Software Engineer, Rust
Location: Broomfield, Colorado, United States (Onsite / Relocation required)
Security Clearance: Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

Company & Platform Overview

Defense technology company developing hardware and software systems powered by Lattice OS (an AI-powered operating system for real-time command and control).
Focuses on autonomy, artificial intelligence, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking for defense applications.

Team & Role Scope

Focuses on algorithms for target tracking, state estimation, and situational awareness deployed in mission-critical environments.
Responsible for developing high-performance Rust software for real-time systems, spanning tactical implementations, simulation environments, and decision-support tools.

Key Responsibilities

Define and influence team technical direction leveraging subject-matter expertise in target tracking and state estimation.
Architect, maintain, and evolve complex software systems, refactoring existing codebases to improve performance, maintainability, and scalability.
Prototype and deploy state-of-the-art algorithms for tracking, multi-sensor data fusion, and state estimation in agile, iterative environments.
Develop high-performance Rust software for real-time systems, including tactical deployments, simulation environments, and decision support tools.
Design and implement robust filters, estimators, and probabilistic reasoning systems for noisy, ambiguous, or incomplete sensor data.
Apply software design patterns and architectural best practices to manage technical debt and guide production system evolution.
Analyze system performance using high-fidelity simulations, modeling tools, and statistical validation techniques.
Customize algorithms and software for mission-critical use cases, including real-time tracking and sensor fusion.
Integrate tracking and estimation technologies across the software development lifecycle, from requirements definition through testing and optimization.
Translate technical progress into actionable insights for colleagues, leadership, and end-users.

Requirements

Required Qualifications:

8+ years of professional software engineering experience.
Bachelor's degree in mathematics, physics, engineering, or related technical field (advanced degree strongly preferred).
2+ years maintaining and expanding a single codebase or product as requirements evolved.
Demonstrated experience managing and evolving software architecture in production, including refactoring legacy systems and managing technical debt.
Strong understanding of software design patterns and architectural principles for maintainable, scalable systems.
Proficiency in algorithm design, software development, and statistical modeling (experience with Rust, C/C++, Python, or MATLAB).
Solid foundation in applied mathematics: linear algebra, optimization, probability, and stochastic processes.
Knowledge of signal processing techniques for sensor data interpretation (e.g., radar, lidar, EO/IR).
Familiarity with big data pipelines, NoSQL databases, and handling large-scale sensor data.
Demonstrated ability to engineer robust systems for estimation theory, adaptive filtering, controls, and complex signal environments.
Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience refactoring and modernizing Rust codebases in production environments.
Experience with concurrent and parallel programming patterns in Rust.
Open-source Rust project contributions or involvement in the broader Rust ecosystem.
Track record of architectural decision-making and technical leadership on long-lived projects.
Experience in state estimation (Bayesian filtering, sensor fusion, recursive estimation techniques).
Background in machine learning applied to target tracking and recognition (clustering, classification, anomaly detection).
Strong knowledge of target tracking techniques (Kalman filters, particle filters, multi-target tracking algorithms like JPDA, MHT, or PHD filters).
