Role
Who you are
- Passionate ideas of how best to control swarms of autonomous UxV
- Experience building performant front ends, particularly on the web
- Familiarity handling 3D graphics
- A desire to go fast
- 3+ years of experience using frontend languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, and React
- Must be a US person due to the required access to US export controlled information for facilities
Desirable
- Experience working on complex UIs for autonomous behaviors
- Game developer, graphics or 3D visualization background
What the job involves
- The Lattice Autonomy group is hiring front end devs! We’re looking for experienced front end/web developers to innovate on our autonomous control experience, focused on building next generation controls for swarms of autonomous UxV
- The Lattice Autonomy stack is rapidly gaining both developers and end users, increasing the demand for high quality ways to both develop and operate autonomy
- We’re looking for a front end engineer to join the Lattice Autonomy group to help build out a series of high quality components and applications to augment the Lattice Autonomy development suite. Here are a few examples of projects you could work on in this role:
- Build & own first class autonomy/swarm control components for Lattice Web
- Build & own sample integrations for Catalog Autonomy tasks such as swarm transit, muster and more
- Build a scenario management application to quickly iterate behaviors and scenarios using Lattice Web
- We have a lot of work to do in this space, and you’ll have an opportunity to tackle these problems from first principles and build the best front end products and tooling to augment our growing Autonomy stack
- Develop tooling to simplify end to end Autonomy integration
- Build & own first class autonomy/swarm control components for Lattice Web such as rendering deconfliction zones for 100s of robots
- Build & own sample integrations for Catalog Autonomy tasks such as team transit, loiter and more
- Integrate our native autonomy debugger into the web to enable real time debugging workflows
- Partner with end-users to discover their needs and deliver capability iteratively
Our take
Anduril makes hardware and software for defense agencies including the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security. Its hardware products include specialist drones with a long flight time and surveillance towers.
This hardware is tied together by proprietary software, the Lattice platform, which uses sensor fusion, machine learning, and mesh networking to integrate real-time data from Anduril hardware and third-party systems into a single, autonomous operating picture. While the hardware observes and detects, the software can make decisions as to the threat level of any anomalies, and so allow for observation and protection of an area or building with minimal manpower.
Anduril closed a Series E funding round in 2022 led by Valor Equity Partners. This funding was used for research and development of its autonomous defense products, such as the Roadrunner, a modular twin-jet powered autonomous vehicle that can take off and land vertically. Variants of the Roadrunner include defensive warhead armed interceptors which are the first drone weapons that can be retrieved after deployment. The company has also expanded to Australia where it is working in tandem with the Australian Defence Force to improve its military technology and infrastructure and is recruiting talent worldwide to support its rapidly growing portfolio of defense projects.
