About the role

Software Engineer to build core Command and Control software for Anduril’s Lattice platform, bridging hardware and human operators across vehicles and Ground Control Station, with early exploration of GenAI agent integration.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement consensus protocols (Raft, CRDT, or others) that keep a fleet of autonomous vehicles converging on shared truth over lossy, contested links
  • Build the next generation of distributed teaming state: replicated mission data, leader election, and conflict resolution across dozens of nodes with no guaranteed central authority
  • Support both strong consensus and eventual consistency depending on real-world latency and partition constraints
  • Own the failure semantics when partitioned vehicles rejoin the team
  • Travel up to 30% of time to build, test, and deploy capabilities in the real world

Qualifications

  • BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or related field.
  • 3+ years of production-grade C++ and/or Rust experience in a Linux development environment
  • Experience building software solutions involving significant amounts of data processing and analysis
  • Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and established code bases
  • A desire to work on critical software that has a real-world impact
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance
  • Travel up to 30% of time to build, test, and deploy capabilities in the real world
