If you are passionate about solving problems that have real impact, come join Anduril and build the future of defense.

We are looking for Frontend Software Engineers to join our team. As a Senior Frontend Software Engineer at Anduril you will be architecting and building out our front end features and tooling, deploying them to users, and making sure they're meeting users' requirements. You will be working alongside a team of engineers with diverse backgrounds.

As an early member of the team, your decisions today will have a large impact on the company today and into the future. We believe that simple systems are easier to understand, maintain, and scale. You will be making trade-offs as you work to ensure that our systems are prepared to scale — being able to effectively communicate these trade-offs with your teammates is a must.

The ideal candidate has curiosity and experience in backend systems as well so that you can understand and contribute to it in support of your frontend responsibilities.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Design, build, and deploy a real-time, map-based interface for displaying and interacting with sensor data and commanding physical assets
  • Fetch and manage large streams of data while maintaining performant rendering in a low-friction user experience
  • Build and design immersive image-viewing experiences on multiple platforms, including web-based and mobile 3D image viewing

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Degree in Computer Science, Operations Research, Electrical Engineering or related technical degree
  • Experience working on frontend applications, especially data-intensive or map-based systems
  • Proficiency with a programming language such as Javascript, Typescript, or Java
  • Ability to empathize with end-users, to turn needs into features, and to balance user experience with engineering constraints
  • U.S. Person status may be required as this position needs to access export controlled data.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Leadership experience a plus
  • We encourage people from all backgrounds go apply but our tech stack uses AWS, C++, Go, Typescript, and React so familiarity with all of these tools and languages would be useful
  • Previous experience working with the DoD
  • Startup experience
  • 3D mapping experience

Anduril is an equal-opportunity employer, and we encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply. If you are someone passionate to work on problems that matter, we’d love to hear from you!
