Senior Red Team Engineer, DiscoveryActive$253K

The Discovery team at Anduril is at the forefront of incubating and maturing high-potential, software-defined, AI-native offerings that meet the toughest, newest challenges across hardware, software, space, and cyber domains. We're the architects of mission autonomy and mesh…

What you'll do

• Independently execute red-team designs, models, and analyses across the: program — hunt failure modes, surface hidden assumptions, and pressure-test trade studies before decisions are locked in

• Contribute to the models and simulations needed to prove or break a claim,: rather than taking it on faith — often developing the analysis tooling yourself

• Reconstruct and independently verify others' work; find the error everyone else missed

• Work shoulder-to-shoulder with Systems, GNC, Software, Hardware, Mission Ops,: and Test teams, translating findings into clear, actionable guidance that measurably improves the design

• Bring hands-on systems-building experience to bear so problems are caught in analysis, not in flight

• Communicate complex results: including strong visual presentation of data — to engineers, leadership, and stakeholders

What they're looking for

• + years in a relevant science/engineering field
• Hands-on design and analysis experience across multiple of: space systems, missiles / missile defense, air vehicles, GNC, sensors and sensor fusion, radar, EW. You are not expected to have all of these — the more breadth, the better
• Formal red-team, T&E, IV&V, mission-assurance, or failure-analysis experience
• Comfort moving fluidly between domains and physics regimes within a single problem
• Exceptional proficiency with physics-math scripting of your choice
• Familiarity with domain analysis tools as relevant (e.g., STK/Astrogator, AFSIM)
• Experience with genetic algorithms, machine learning, AI, and reinforcement learning
