At a glance

Anduril 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.
This role will focus on the software infrastructure, test framework, automation, and tooling required to bring up and operate complex HITL systems.
You will work at the intersection of simulation, hardware integration, and system-level testing to enable reliable and repeatable testing on physical systems.

Develop and maintain the test framework and software infrastructure that bridges our Software-In-The-Loop (SITL) testing to Hardware-In-The-Loop testing, enabling a seamless testing experience across both environments
Develop logging infrastructure and log-processing tooling to capture, organize, correlate, and analyze system behavior during HITL testing
Develop diagnostics and telemetry debug capabilities that provide visibility into system state and enable efficient troubleshooting of integration and test failures
Develop fault-injection capabilities that enable controlled failures and degraded conditions to be introduced and evaluated during testing
Build automated tests to evaluate system behavior, fault detection, handling, recovery, and graceful degradation
Develop configuration management tracking tools to maintain consistent and reproducible HITL configurations
Automate HITL health checks, setup, configuration, deployment, and test execution to reduce manual effort and improve repeatability
Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines for regression testing
Establish software and testing best practices that enable HITL systems to be used as a reliable part of the development and integration lifecycle
Support the physical stand-up, configuration, and maintenance of open-loop and closed-loop HITLs, and the integration of hardware, compute, networking, sensors, and other components required for HITL testing

Bachelor’s Degree (or similar) in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace/Aeronautics Engineering, or similar
Ability to take ownership of software infrastructure from development through deployment, testing, and maintenance.
Experience developing automated test frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, configuration management processes, and test tooling such as logging, diagnostics, and debug utilities
Strong proficiency in Python and C++
Experience with Github
Experience developing, operating, and maintaining software frameworks for HIL/HITL/Ironbird/System Support Equipment for a Group 4 or Group 5 UAS, aerospace, or defense vehicle integration and test environment
Understanding of software/hardware interfaces, networking, and electrical bus protocols (CAN, Ethernet, RS-232/422/485, MIL-STD-1553)
Strong debugging skills and the ability to troubleshoot issues across software and hardware boundaries
Prior hands on experience working with and troubleshooting electrical systems, harnesses, LRUs, and electro-mechanical assemblies
Experience using diagnostic and protocol analysis tools such as Saleae Logic Analyzers, Wireshark, PEAK-System CAN interfaces, or similar tools

Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, mechanical drawings, and engineering documentation
Experience performing LRU-, subsystem-, and system-level hardware integration and bring-up
Prior experience with oscilloscopes, digital multi-meters, programmable power supplies, electronic loads, and other electrical test equipment
Familiarity with Nix

Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees
