Job description

Anduril's Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) team is seeking experienced embedded software engineers to build out the software ecosystem supporting a next-generation electromagnetic warfare platform. You'll develop correct, secure, high-reliability embedded software in Rust for controlling electromagnetic warfare assets, both on Linux (NixOS) and in bare-metal/RTOS environments using async frameworks like Embassy and RTIC. You will collaborate with Electrical, RF, and Programmable Logic (PL) engineers to build high-performance hardware/software interfaces, and work with the wider software organization to integrate electromagnetic warfare products with the Anduril Lattice system-of-systems suite. The role also includes building Linux-side CLI tools in Rust for calibration, deployment, and diagnostics, and applying state-of-the-art software construction techniques to rapidly deploy cutting-edge capabilities to our customers. WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Participate in system design, part selection, and schematic reviews for product revisions and greenfield products
  • Write and maintain device drivers for microcontroller peripherals and external ICs
  • Implement bootloaders and over-the-air (OTA) update mechanisms
  • Build deterministic, reproducible firmware builds and configuration management for deployment, guaranteeing software traceability
  • Test software using unit, software-in-the-loop (SITL), hardware-in-the-loop (HITL), and system-level methodologies
  • Use software debugging tools (probe-rs, OpenOCD, GDB/LLDB) and hardware debugging tools (logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, multimeters, soldering)
  • Collaborate with FPGA/PL engineers on register interfaces and hardware/software integration, To ensure your safety and help you navigate your job search with confidence, please keep the following critical points in mind:
  • No Financial Requests: Anduril will never solicit payment or demand personal financial details (such as banking information, credit card numbers, or social security numbers) at any stage of our hiring process. Our legitimate recruitment is entirely free for candidates.

Requirements

  • 2+ years professional experience in embedded software and/or firmware engineering
  • Strong proficiency in Rust for embedded systems, including no_std and embedded-hal ecosystem
  • Comfortable working with microcontroller peripherals (SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet, etc.) and data bus types (AXI, USB, etc.)
  • Excellent technical communication and collaboration skills
  • Must be able to obtain and hold a U.S. TS security clearance, * Experience with embedded async Rust frameworks (Embassy, RTIC)
  • Proficiency in C for reading and interfacing with vendor HALs and legacy codebases
  • Experience with software-defined digital radio systems
  • Experience with industry standards bodies or open-source communities
  • Experience measuring and enhancing performance related to speed, size, power consumption, and cost
  • Experience with Nix/NixOS
  • Understanding of functional programming languages like Haskell
