ABOUT THE TEAM The Simulation Integrations team owns the integration of Simulation products into the Lattice ecosystem. We're the bridge between Anduril's high-fidelity simulation engine and the production services that
power Lattice, enabling simulated entities, sensors, and autonomy to participate in the same world as live assets.
ABOUT THE JOBYou will build the foundational service that bridges our high-fidelity robot simulations with our live production services. This is the engine that will power next-generation capabilities, including wargaming and complex live-virtual constructive (LVC) exercises, all while simplifying the provisioning of synthetic environments to enable greater adoption. As a core member of the team, you will have a high degree of ownership over the entire product lifecycle.

- Own the deployment and management of the service on Kubernetes, containerized with Docker
- Design and implement robust gRPC, and WebSocket APIs for real-time communication between virtual and live systems
- Diagnose and resolve complex issues in a distributed system, especially around latency, availability, and concurrency
- Collaborate on product decisions to shape the future of our simulation platform
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS- Hands-on expertise with Docker and Kubernetes in a production environment
- Strong experience with API design, particularly with gRPC
- Proficiency with databases (e.g., Postgres)
- A proven ability to debug and optimize for performance and availability in distributed systems
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS- Professional experience building production services in Golang
