Guidance Navigation and Control (GNC) Engineer, Air Dominance & Strike - Advanced Effects

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. Join our Flight Engineering team advancing the Air Dominance and Strike division's portfolio, where we push the boundaries of aerospace technology. As a critical member of our team, the role of a Guidance, Navigation Control (GNC) Engineer is pivotal in driving the design, development, testing, and implementation of cutting-edge flight system technologies for our aerospace systems. Anduril fosters a dynamic learning culture, characterized by accelerated knowledge acquisition through modeling, simulation, analysis, and rigorous and frequent ground and flight test experimentation. At Anduril, you will be involved in flight testing the systems you develop. We are seeking exceptional GNC Engineers to shape the next generation of advanced tactical missile systems, strategic weapons, and hypersonic strike and defense systems. As a key contributor, you will develop, test, and integrate cutting-edge GNC architectures for subsonic, supersonic, and hypersonic autonomous systems, driving innovation in mission-critical capabilities. WHAT YOU'LL DO: Develop, implement, and test algorithms for guidance, navigation, and control systems in line with project requirements. Design, implement, and assess the GNC architectures considering all elements, including sensors, actuators, and algorithms. Participate in all phases of system development, from concept to design, prototyping, testing, and operation. Collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team including systems engineers, flight software engineers, and test engineers to ensure system-wide integration and performance. Contribute to design reviews, safety assessments, and system documentation. Use simulation and analysis tools to verify GNC models and system performance under different operating conditions. Provide system engineering expertise in the development of GNC systems, ensuring a cohesive and efficient approach to the design and implementation process. Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to GNC systems during design, testing, and operational phases. Keep updated with the latest technologies and trends in GNC engineering and system architecture design.
