Systems Engineer, Battlespace

Summary

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. The Systems Engineer will support the design, development, and validation of advanced algorithmic capabilities for Anduril's command and control products, ensuring the technical success of complex systems.

Responsibilities

• Support the design, development, and validation of advanced algorithmic capabilities including tracking, sensor/effector management, battlespace optimization, and threat forecasting
• Bridge system design, requirements management, modeling and simulation (M&S), and verification & validation (V&V) activities
• Integrate emerging capabilities into new products and system configurations
• Lead requirements decomposition across cross-functional teams, defining success in the face of ambiguity
• Develop test plans, acceptance criteria, and analysis tools to evaluate system performance using both simulation and collected field data
• Use data-driven analysis to verify customer requirements are met, and create artifacts to trace performance as the system evolves
• Own systems end-to-end, bringing an ability to identify and solve problems between the seams and push through to reach an ultimate desired outcome
• Develop and implement sophisticated modeling and simulation frameworks to validate algorithmic performance, test system capabilities under various scenarios, and provide data-driven insights for continuous improvement
• Responsible for scoping ideal system laydown, scrutinizing system performance, and ensuring the deployed system is meeting customer requirements
• Own systems end to end with the ability to identify and solve problems between the seams and push through to reach an ultimate outcome

Skills
