If you see a problem, you want to solve and fix it * Be naturally curious about the technologies and tools you use ## Description The Connected Warfare team builds, deploys, and scales modern command and control capabilities like the Menace Family-of-Systems. As the firmware engineer closest to the hardware, you are the critical link between Electrical Engineering and the rest of the software stack. You will own the end-to-end firmware for systems like Menace-I-from initial board bring-up and driver development to system-level integration and field testing-solving the toughest technical challenges at the hardware-software boundary You'll be building the foundational embedded software for the Connected Warfare team. As a generalist firmware engineer, you'll be responsible for bringing new hardware to life - writing real-time microcontroller code, developing reusable device drivers for sensors and peripherals, and debugging the gnarly, cross-disciplinary problems that live at the boundary of hardware and software. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with our Electrical Engineering team on some of the most complex autonomous systems being built today. What You'll Do * Develop low-level firmware/software for microcontrollers, create reusable device drivers, integrate system-level features and architect changes to support an ever-growing codebase * Quickly debug and troubleshoot issues that span the electrical, firmware, and software boundaries * Review schematics with the electrical engineering team, 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.
