TL;DR · Hardware Systems Integration Engineer

The Hardware Systems Integration Engineer joins the Anduril Expeditionary Systems team to develop AI Factories and command centers for tactical edge use. This role involves owning the end-to-end architecture of air-transportable, power-constrained, and hardened systems designed to process petabyte-scale data. You will translate high-level concepts into detailed electrical requirements, balancing performance with manufacturing feasibility for modular, containerized, or vehicle-mounted designs. Key responsibilities include designing infrastructure for austere environments, managing electromagnetic hardening, and collaborating with AI/ML teams to meet software requirements. Required skills include experience with embedded systems hardware like MCUs, CPUs, and FPGAs, as well as full-cycle ECU/LRU electronics design, PCBA, and harnessing. You will solve the technical challenge of providing high-performance computing in contested environments while ensuring systems are rapidly deployable and operationally credible.

What you'll do

  • Own the end-to-end electrical architecture for AI Factory tactical data centers and deployable command centers.
  • Translate high-level Concepts of Operations into detailed electrical requirements, architectures, and functional modules.
  • Design air-transportable, modular systems optimized for rapid deployment in austere and contested environments.
  • Build infrastructure capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, limited power, and electromagnetic hardening.
  • Partner with defense customers to convert operational needs into technical architectures.
  • Lead prototyping, field testing, and operational validation through military exercises and real-world deployments.
  • Flow module and subsystem information to PCB design and harnessing teams to guide production designs.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 5+ years of engineering experience designing and deploying electrical products.
  • Proven ability to define long-term architectural vision and lead cross-functional teams on complex electronics projects.
  • Experience with full-cycle ECU/LRU electronics design, including PCBA design, harnessing, and connector selection.
  • Familiarity with embedded systems hardware including MCUs, CPUs, and FPGAs.
  • U.S. Person status required (U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee).
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance.
  • Background in 3-phase power, tactical military systems, or ruggedized computing (preferred).
