About the role
Role on the Imaging Interfaces team within Anduril’s Imaging group. A field-facing, end-to-end software engineer responsible for the health, uptime, and integration of deployed imaging systems, building production services for edge devices, and serving as a technical representative in customer and partner integrations.
Responsibilities
- Own fielded system success. You are responsible for the health and uptime of deployed imaging systems. When issues arise--whether the root cause is in your code, the firmware, the network, or the hardware--you triage, diagnose, and drive resolution.
- Build and maintain production services. You'll develop and extend modular software services that run on edge-compute devices in austere environments. These services need to be reliable, observable, and maintainable by engineers who didn't write them.
- Support field operations. You'll work directly with field operators and non-technical users to diagnose and resolve issues on deployed hardware. Clear communication under pressure is part of the job.
- Represent the team externally. You'll serve as a subject matter expert in integrations with other products and teams; sometimes remotely, sometimes on-site.
- Maintain end-to-end system understanding. Our devices sit at the intersection of hardware, firmware, networking, and software. You'll develop broad fluency across that stack over time, and apply it to optimize how our services interact and degrade gracefully when components fail.
- Collaborate across teams. You'll plan, build, and test complex functionality alongside firmware, hardware, and platform engineers. You'll need to be effective working across team and organizational boundaries.
Qualifications
- 3+ years of software development with meaningful production ownership
- Deep proficiency in at least one of C++, TypeScript(node.js/React), or Python, and ability to work across the stack boundary in a second language
- Comfort ramping quickly into unfamiliar languages, tools, and deployment systems
- 3+ years working in Linux-based environments, including hands-on work with bare-metal hardware
- Demonstrated ability to diagnose and resolve issues across system boundaries
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret clearance.
