AUV Data & Infrastructure Engineer at Anduril Industries

The AUV Data & Infrastructure Engineer performs two critical functions for the Maritime Division. Firstly, they will become a subject matter expert in the data and telemetry that Anduril platforms collect in service of their missions, and be able to effectively process, manage, analyze and disseminate that data, as well as develop high quality data products and advice for our customers. Secondly, the AUV Data & Infrastructure Engineer will work to continuously improve the way that we collect, manage, analyze, and disseminate AUV data at an infrastructure level, and drive tighter integration between platforms and mission systems across Anduril’s operating system, Lattice, and family of autonomous systems.

The AUV Data & Infrastructure Engineer will work with partners across Maritime Division as well as Anduril’s Software Platform and Business Operations departments. They must be able to operate independently, think critically about short term mission data needs and long term infrastructure investments, and drive data and infrastructure projects forward across organizational boundaries.
