Mission Systems : Imaging Engineering : Imaging - System Engineering,Integration and Test Lexington, MA Posted May 7, 2026

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

ABOUT THE TEAM

The Space Imaging team is seeking a Systems Engineer to join our team. The Imaging Space team is responsible for system architecture definition, trade analyses, and modeling/validating system performance for spaceborne EO/IR systems.

In this role, you will be responsible for defining active EO/IR system architectures. You will perform radiometric performance modeling as well as laboratory, ground, and flight testing. To predict real-world performance, you will also model atmospheric and environmental effects for land, sea, and air targets. You will leverage your analyses to inform system-level architectural trades. As needed, you will also lead small teams of engineers from concept ideation through system definition and development.

You should have a track record of successfully working on fast-paced, highly technical, interdisciplinary teams. Proficiency in analytical toolchains or languages (e.g., MATLAB, Python) is required. Experience with industry standard EO/IR modeling software packages (e.g. MODTRAN, SPIRITS, AFSIM) is a plus. Prior experience working with space sensors and systems is highly desirable.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Define system architectures via detailed trade studies and analyses.
Adapt or derive physics-based models of sensor system performance and derive requirements based on those models.
Take ownership over the development of prototype sensor systems in a lab environment.
Support both laboratory-based and field-based experiments and demonstrations.
Engage technically with the hardware, software, and mission teams to define, integrate, and deliver high performance systems to our customers.
Validate models against laboratory and real-world data.
Coordinate and communicate with both external & internal stakeholders with varying degrees of technical background.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Model development and validation in one or more domains relevant to remote sensing
Ability to decompose complex systems into functional parts, with clearly defined interfaces and requirements for each.
Experience in system design and development from initial concept through test and delivery to customer.
Strong laboratory skills (rapid prototyping, design of experiments) and familiarity with opto-electrical test and measurement equipment.
Willingness to travel to test sites, as needed.
Must be able to obtain and hold a U.S. security clearance.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Knowledge of current and next-generation advanced sensing systems and platforms
Active and passive sensing domain experience (e.g., LiDAR, EO/IR, Radar)
Experience with laser systems, including opto-mechanical scanning and beam steering techniques.
Knowledge of electro-mechanical control systems, including their performance requirements and verification methodologies.
Experience with LiDAR/Radar signal processing techniques, and knowledge of their implementation on real-time embedded platforms (FPGA, MCU, etc.).
Experience with signature and/or scenario modeling/software packages (MODTRAN, SPIRITS, AFSIM).
Space domain experience (architecting sensors for operation in space environments)

US Salary Range

$144,000—$191,000 USD

The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary offer may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations.
