Full Job Description
ABOUT THE TEAM
Anduril's Air Defense team builds autonomous robots that find other robots and knock them out of the sky. This team is the nexus of premier Anduril-built products such as Roadrunner, Sentry, Anvil, Pulsar, and Wisp integrated into a software-enabled Air Defense family of systems tailored to the modern battlespace. At a time when air superiority can no longer be taken for granted, we provide critical force protection capabilities to support the warfighter. Our autonomous family of networked sensors and effectors enables our users to rapidly close the kill chain against a broad range of UAS threats that continue to evolve at a rapid pace.
ABOUT THE JOB
The Air Defense team needs a Senior Network Engineer to own the networks that connect sensors, compute, and effectors from detection to engagement. You'll be responsible for owning the networking components across deployed Anduril Systems, designing the physical infrastructure behind fielded networks, and troubleshooting failures from routing configuration down to physical interconnect of the system. This role requires deep Linux networking expertise and the ability to work hands-on in the field.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Configure and troubleshoot Linux networking across deployed Anduril hardware as well as network appliances, including interfaces, bonding, VLAN tagging, routing tables, and host firewall rules
Own networking for the Air Defense family of systems. Work with sensor, effector, autonomy, and Lattice teams to move each detection to the effector that acts on it
Diagnose network behavior end to end, from host-level packet captures and system troubleshooting to the switch, link, and cable underneath it
Design, deploy, and maintain the networks that support Air Defense development, integration, and test, including lab networks, integration facilities, and their physical infrastructure
Design and implement secure, segmented network architectures using ACLs, firewalls, and intrusion detection or prevention
Maintain accurate documentation for network topology, cabling, VLAN and IP assignments, and inter-zone communication flows. Support field integration and test events
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
BS degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field, plus 5+ years of network engineering experience and the ability to lead deployments with minimal guidance
Advanced Linux networking and administration skills, including interface configuration, DNS, DHCP, routing and routed protocols, multicast, and system-level network troubleshooting
Experience configuring and debugging networking on embedded, deployed, or field-tested systems, not only fixed-site infrastructure
Experience with Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking, MANET or mesh radio systems, wireless systems, and firewall policy management. Able to perform field installations, cabling validation, and physical-layer troubleshooting
Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code or declarative configuration management for deploying and maintaining consistent networking configurations across fleets of systems
Able to travel up to 25% of the time
Authorized to work in the United States
Able to obtain and maintain a Secret clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Proficiency with Cisco, Arista, and Palo Alto platforms, including Panorama and NGFW
Experience with data center or private cloud networking
Experience supporting DoD programs or networking in operational or field environments
