Electrical Engineer - RF​/Navigation

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.

The Core Technology RF & PNT Team is responsible for developing high-reliability communication and navigation solutions, including required embedded processing and power systems, for UAV system. Working across hardware, software, and mission autonomy, the team delivers flight-critical electronics, PCB assemblies, and FPGA-based processing architectures that enable Anduril's next-generation autonomous air platforms to operate in complex and contested environments. This role will drive end-to-end development, from system architecture and circuit design to verification, integration, and flight test, ensuring scalable, mission-ready solutions that meet the performance, reliability, and survivability demands of the U.S. Military and modern air warfare.

• Develop high performance, high efficiency, and highly robust avionics solutions for air vehicle platforms
• Develop reliable on-board communication systems to exchange high bandwidth data across various air and ground assets
• Architect, design, and build high-speed digital PCBAs (schematic capture, simulation, board layout)
• Help decide what to do in-house and what to outsource, communicate design requirements with external vendors and help drive the progress
• Develop relationships with external vendors and communicate design requirements to external vendors and suppliers.
• Work cross-functionally between software, firmware and hardware teams
• Develop hardware validation test plans for sub-system and full system products.

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent
