We are focused on new air vehicle development programs, and making large groups of autonomous systems work effectively together. Within the Maneuver Dominance team, we are growing an early-stage, undisclosed autonomous air vehicle (AAV) program at our Costa Mesa HQ. This team is chartered with re-inventing an existing platform through heavy modification and integration of advanced autonomy, mission systems, and payloads. On this team, you will be tackling novel challenges across airframe, structures, avionics, and software from day one. As part of this program, you'll work alongside a tight-knit group of mechanical, structural, electrical, and software engineers, together with Program Leads and the Chief Engineer, all embedded in a single team driving toward major milestones. You will work in a lean, high-ownership culture where the entire vehicle team sits side-by-side, iterating quickly and making decisions in real time. Given the early stage of the program, you will have influence over foundational architecture decisions and the opportunity to redefine an existing platform.ABOUT THE JOBAnduril is seeking an Integration and Test Engineer with a strong software focus to join the Maneuver Dominance team at our Costa Mesa HQ to help develop and scale our Hardware-In-The-Loop (HITL) capabilities.
