TL;DR · Senior Embedded Engineer, EW

As a Senior Embedded Engineer at Anduril’s Electronic Warfare (EW) team, you will work on developing high-performance hardware/software interfaces and numerical algorithms for RF data. Your day-to-day responsibilities include collaborating with digital systems engineers to ensure maximum performance between software and next-gen RF hardware, as well as creating tools that enable DSP and RFML engineers to rapidly deploy capabilities. You’ll also develop reliable software integrated into the Anduril Lattice system-of-systems suite, using deterministic builds and configuration management for deployment. The role requires 7+ years of professional experience in typed functional programming languages like Haskell or Rust, along with expertise in software-defined digital radio systems. Preferred skills include FPGA development, graphics programming, and Nix/NixOS, all within a mission-critical environment that demands state-of-the-art software construction techniques for timely delivery.

What you'll do

  • Develop high-performance hardware/software interfaces with digital systems engineers.
  • Create and maintain tools for rapid deployment of algorithms to electronic warfare assets.
  • Implement numerical algorithms for RF data generation, manipulation, and visualization.
  • Ensure correct, reliable software integration within the Anduril Lattice ecosystem.
  • Utilize deterministic build infrastructure for traceable and low-maintenance product delivery.

What we're looking for

  • 7+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Experience with typed functional programming languages (Haskell or Rust)
  • Proficiency in developing software-defined digital radio systems
  • Strong background in FPGA development and Xilinx tools (preferred)
  • Knowledge of graphics programming frameworks (OpenGL, DirectX, Vulkan) (preferred)
  • Familiarity with Nix/NixOS for infrastructure and tool development (preferred)
