Mission Software Engineer - Undersea Reconnaissance & Strike joins the Anduril Maritime team to resolve complex technical issues within autonomous underwater and surface vehicle systems. This role focuses on identifying, reproducing, and fixing field-reported anomalies in the production codebase rather than just triaging tickets. You will investigate sensor failures or mission faults by replaying recorded data through live pipelines and utilizing existing metrics and log infrastructure to reconstruct system states. The work involves developing fixes in Rust, C++, Python, or Go while ensuring they pass through standard CI and versioned rollout processes. Key requirements include Linux systems fluency, experience with Prometheus/Grafana-class metrics and Loki/ELK-class logs, and the ability to debug code under pressure. You will solve critical problems involving sensor fusion, mission logic, and data stream stability for maritime autonomous vehicles in a high-stakes defense context.
