Anduril Industries
Transforming US & allied military capabilities with advanced technology.Anduril is developing software at the intersection of machine learning, computer vision, and sensor fusion. We apply convolutional deep learning techniques to multi-spectral sensor inputs for autonomous detection and classification. Lattice Ghost UAS, Sentry Tower and other autonomous platforms work in tandem to fuse these detections using Bayesian inference. Applied Scientists at Anduril are specialists with domain expertise in at least one scientific discipline that applies to Anduril’s unique technical challenges. It is important that Applied Scientists also have a good range of knowledge within data structures and algorithms and understand algorithmic and implementation tradeoffs as a major part of the role will include switching context to new problems and ramping quickly on the right technical approaches.
