Role Posting Log in to save

The Field Reliability Engineer - Undersea Reconnaissance & Strike joins the Anduril Maritime team to resolve complex bugs found on autonomous underwater and surface vehicles. You will identify, reproduce, and fix anomalies in the real codebase, such as sensor failures or mission faults, by analyzing per-service metrics and centralized logs. You will write production-level fixes in Rust, C++, Python, or Go, ensuring they pass through CI and versioned rollouts. The role requires systems-debugging instincts, Linux fluency, and experience with observability tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, or ELK. You will work on autonomy computers, payload computers, and surface integration units to solve real-world problems in maritime robotics. This position demands the ability to reconstruct system states from recorded data and provide root cause analysis for hardware-software interactions.

Skills

Rust C++ Python Go Linux Prometheus Grafana Loki ELK CI/CD Hardware-in-the-loop NixOS Robotics Middleware

What you'll do

Identify the specific subsystem responsible for field-reported anomalies like sensor failures or mission faults.
Reproduce bugs by replaying recorded sensor and mission data through live pipelines and visualization tools.
Reconstruct system states using existing metrics, dashboards, and centralized log infrastructure.
Confirm fixes in simulated environments or hardware-in-the-loop setups before deploying to real vehicles.
Write production-level fixes in Rust, C++, Python, or Go with full tests and CI integration.
Determine if issues are bugs, bad configurations, or deployment mismatches and fix them at the correct layer.
Document root causes and fixes to help build the team's on-call and triage runbooks.
Advocate for fundamental subsystem changes to owning teams rather than just patching symptoms.

What we're looking for

Experience debugging code you didn't write under time pressure with incomplete information.
Proficiency in at least two of Rust, modern C++, Python, or Go.
Systems-debugging instincts to pull logs, reconstruct states, and reproduce issues from recorded data.
Experience using observability tooling such as Prometheus/Grafana-class metrics and Loki/ELK-class logs.
Linux and systems fluency.
Ability to write clear, concise root cause and fix documentation.
Willingness to travel 25%+ of the time on average.
Experience with robotics middleware, sensor drivers, or real-time data pipelines (preferred).
