Senior Software Engineer, Tasking

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or relevant field, or equivalent experience

5+ years of professional software development experience, with a focus on distributed systems or robotics

Deep experience with C++, Rust, or similar systems programming languages

Proficiency with protocol design and implementation (gRPC, protobuf, etc.)

Experience building software solutions involving significant amounts of data processing and analysis

Excellent collaboration skills and ability to work across multiple engineering teams

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our team, where you will design and develop the core task execution framework onboard autonomous vehicles, enabling reliable command and control through our Lattice Autonomy stack. You will collaborate closely with platform teams, autonomy engineers, and end users to create solutions that enable efficient, reliable tasking of autonomous systems in real-world defense scenarios. If you are someone who is self-motivated, holds yourself to high standards, and thrives in a low-structure, high-autonomy environment, then this role is for you.

Design and implement core components of our Tasking framework that runs onboard autonomous vehicles as part of Lattice for Mission Autonomy

Develop robust, fault-tolerant systems that can operate reliably over denied or degraded communications links

Create interfaces that enable third-party systems to integrate with our Tasking framework through the open source Lattice SDK

Collaborate with autonomy teams to ensure their platforms can reliably receive and execute tasks

The Tasking Team is part of the Lattice software platform and enables command and control of robots, sensors, and third-party integrations through our flexible, software-defined tasking framework. Our work spans both ground and robot software, creating a unified model for task delivery, state management, and execution reasoning. As a core software capability, the Tasking Team's work directly enables mission-critical operations across all domains, across Anduril products and missions, and

developer program partners

integrating with the Lattice SDK. Our solutions are designed for real-world deployment in the most demanding operational scenarios, where the ability to maintain command and control of autonomous systems can make the difference between mission success and failure.
