Anduril Industries Systems Engineer - Machine Learning at Anduril Industries responsible for bridging systems engineering, applied physics, and machine learning to solve missile defense problems. Design track-fusion pipelines, build threat-assignment algorithms, and conduct sensitivity analyses using Python or C++.

Responsibilities

Machine Learning: Research, develop, and deploy complex machine learning models such as generative ai, reinforcement learning, deep neural networks, physics based neural models.
Algorithm Design and Development: Formulate and solve complex physics problems using mathematical techniques.
Ex: Object detection, tracking, and discrimination. Weapon-Target Assignment (WTA), sensor allocation, and fire control scheduling.
Sensor Fusion & Tracking: Work on the components of system architecture that ingest raw/processed sensor data, execute track fusion, and perform threat classification.
Parametric & Sensitivity Analysis: Design, conduct, and defend rigorous trade studies, sensitivity analyses, and parametric evaluations to determine system boundaries and validate performance.
Prototyping & Modeling: Rapidly translate mathematical equations into clean, functional code (Python / C++) to run non-customer-facing modeling, simulation, and algorithm verification.
Mission Systems Architecture: Bridge the gap between low-level physics/threat intelligence inputs and high-level mission outputs.
