The opportunity

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.

What you'll do

  • Develop Test Scenarios Simulation Environments: Develop comprehensive test scenarios, and simulation environments to assess agentic AI performance in classified simulations.

  • Validate AI on Classified & Edge Platforms: Lead the integration and validation of agentic AI systems onto classified platforms and edge hardware.

  • Build Reusable Evaluation Pipelines: Build reusable evaluation pipelines, automated test harnesses, and monitoring dashboards for continuous validation.

  • Define Actionable Metrics: Figure out what good metrics look like for AI models and traditional models—establishing systematic, historic capture of performance rather than one-shot, deployment-specific measurement.

  • Partner Cross-Functionally: Partner with cross-functional teams to define requirements, document test results, and contribute to AI model cards and deployment readiness reviews.

  • Own End-to-End Evaluation: Architect, build, and maintain the evaluation and validation infrastructure for our agentic AI and ML models, from unit-level model checks through full-system, scenario-based assessment.

What they're looking for

  • Troubleshoot and Debug: Analyze and resolve issues uncovered in evaluation and in deployment, ensuring reliability and operational success across every release.
  • Technical Expertise: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Programming Proficiency: At least 8-10 years of hands-on experience writing production-grade code, with strong Python skills for building evaluation pipelines, test harnesses, and tooling.
  • Evaluation Ownership Mindset: Demonstrated experience owning evaluation or automated testing for production ML or software systems—test scenarios, metrics, regression suites, and CI infrastructure.
