About The Position

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century's most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril's family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years. ABOUT THE TEAM The Lattice Autonomy Platform team owns the behavior tree engine and extension points to support "autonomy for every mission." Our customers use teams of heterogeneous robots that can sense the world, move around, and coordinate to achieve their objectives given high-level plans from human operators. Our software is deployed on a variety of robot platforms from autonomous jets and underwater autonomous submersibles through to rotary wing aircraft and everything in between. Our team's mission is to enable engineers to build the best autonomous capabilities at the fastest developer velocity. We do this by building well-designed, ergonomic APIs for engineers in the field to build on and complete their mission. Every mission involves a unique set of objectives, robot capabilities, and teaming dynamics. Our system needs to be flexible and easy to use so operators can build high-level behaviors that make the best use of the information and capabilities available to each robot.
