Team Overview

The Platform Security Engineering (PSE) team builds security into Anduril's products from architecture through production. We work directly with business lines to design and implement security solutions tailored to their systems — then promote proven patterns into shared, composable platform services that the entire organization can use. Our mission is threefold: build security solutions for business lines, promote those solutions into the platform, and enable teams to build and operate securely on their own. The work spans cryptographic protocols, operating system hardening, secure boot, hardware security integration, authentication systems, and distributed protocol security across embedded, edge, and cloud environments.

Job Description

We're looking for senior and staff-level software engineers to design and build security solutions across Anduril's product ecosystem. You'll partner directly with business line engineering teams to understand their systems, threat models, and security requirements — then design and implement solutions that range from custom, business-line-specific implementations to shared platform services. The problems you'll work on span the full stack — secure hardware, operating systems, container orchestration, distributed services, and cloud infrastructure — and you'll move between them as the mission demands. We value engineers who are strong generalists: comfortable learning new domains quickly and working across security boundaries rather than specializing in just one.

We're also open to hiring talented software engineers with less security-specific experience, provided they have a strong track record building production software at scale, learn fast, and are motivated to go deep on security.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement security features and services for business line products — including custom solutions when platform capabilities don't yet exist
• Identify patterns across business line implementations and promote them into shared, composable platform security services
• Build tooling, libraries, and reference implementations that enable engineering teams to adopt secure patterns independently
• Lead security architecture reviews and threat modeling for business line and platform systems
• Implement cryptographic protocols, key management systems, and certificate infrastructure
• Work across the technology stack: secure hardware (TPM, TEE), operating systems, container orchestration, and application-layer security
• Provide hands-on engineering support to business line teams adopting platform security services
• Collaborate with the Security Applications & Tools team on cross-cutting security infrastructure

Required Qualifications

• 6+ years of experience designing and developing production software in large-scale environments (8+ for Staff level)
• Proficient in at least one of: C++, Rust, or Go
• Strong software engineering fundamentals: you can design, build, and operate complex systems and pick up new domains quickly
• Experience working on security for distributed systems, or demonstrated ability and motivation to develop deep security expertise
• Ability to work directly with product and engineering teams to translate requirements into working implementations
• Comfortable working across multiple problem domains rather than specializing in a single area
• Strong communication skills with proven ability to negotiate and reach consensus across teams
• Eligible to obtain and maintain active U.S. Secret security clearance

Preferred Qualifications

Experience or willingness to learn in a subset of the following:

• Designing and implementing secure protocols, APIs, or cryptographic systems
• Integrating secure hardware (TPM, TEE, HSM)
• Operating system security and hardening (Linux)
• Securing Kubernetes deployments and container runtimes
• Embedded systems or robotics security
• Secure cloud architectures (AWS or Azure)
• Performing security architecture reviews and threat modeling

Additionally valuable:

• Proficient in: TypeScript, React, Python
• Experience building shared libraries, SDKs, or platform services consumed by other engineering teams
• Knowledge of cryptographic primitives and best practices (key management, certificate lifecycles, secure key storage)
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks (STIGs, NIST) and translating requirements into engineering controls
• Experience with Nix build systems

Team Overview

The Security Applications & Tools (SAT) team within Lattice Platform Security builds custom software systems that detect, manage, and remediate vulnerabilities across Anduril's product ecosystem at scale. We don't just deploy scanners — we design and build distributed scanning infrastructure, policy enforcement engines, and vulnerability management platforms from the ground up. Our stack includes event-driven architectures on AWS, custom Go services, policy-as-code systems, and integrations that span CI pipelines to production environments.

Job Description

We're looking for a senior software engineer to design and build the systems that keep Anduril's software secure. This is a software engineering role first — you'll architect distributed systems, write production Go and Python, build APIs, and operate services at scale. The domain is security, but the work is building real software: custom scanning orchestration pipelines, policy engines that evaluate thousands of configurations against security rules, and data systems that track vulnerabilities across an entire product ecosystem. If you want to write code that solves hard engineering problems in the security space rather than configure off-the-shelf tools, this is the role.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and build distributed services for vulnerability scanning, policy enforcement, and remediation workflows
• Develop and extend the team's scanning orchestration platform — an event-driven architecture built on AWS (SQS, Lambda, S3, ECR) that processes scan events at org-wide scale

About the role

As a Senior Mission Manager, you will serve as a senior mission-facing leader responsible for driving program-based adoption of Vannevar Labs’ technology within government program offices. You will work closely with PEOs, PMWs, and program managers to shape pilots, scope capabilities, and convert demonstrated mission value into funded programs. This is a highly autonomous role that requires deep mission credibility, strong technical intuition, and the ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, early-stage program environments. 

What you’ll do

• Lead engagements with program offices (PEOs, PMWs, PMOs, and equivalent organizations) to identify mission problems that Vannevar Labs’ technology can solve.
• Translate program needs into technical narratives, clearly explaining how our software and agent-based capabilities map to requirements, constraints, and outcomes.
• Scope and shape program-based pilots, defining objectives, success criteria, timelines, and pathways to scale.
• Pitch the technology with credibility, leveraging your mission and domain background to build trust with program managers and technical authorities.
• Navigate programmatic realities, including requirements development, budgeting cycles, contracting pathways, and stakeholder coordination.
• Partner closely with product managers and engineers to ensure mission context is accurately reflected in technical scope, tradeoffs, and delivery plans.
• Convert successful pilots into sustained programs, helping program offices justify follow-on funding and broader adoption.
• Represent Vannevar Labs within the program ecosystem as a mission-credible, technically fluent partner.

What we’re looking for

• 15–20+ years of experience in government or defense missions, typically as a retired O5/O6 or senior enlisted or civilian equivalent
• Deep expertise in a specific mission or technical domain (e.g., cyber, information warfare, ISR, networks, operational intelligence, warfare systems/command and control).
• Strong ability to scope, pitch, and sell technical solutions to senior government stakeholders — not just explain missions, but connect them to software capabilities.
• Proven experience navigating programmatic realities, including budgets, requirements, authorities, timelines, and stakeholder dynamics.
• Sufficient technical fluency to:
  • Understand modern software systems and agent-based approaches
  • Partner effectively with product and engineering teams
  • Translate complex concepts into clear, mission-relevant narratives
• Demonstrated scrappiness and bias toward action — comfortable operating in ambiguity and pushing programs forward without perfect structure.
• High enthusiasm for building something new and shaping how cutting-edge technology is adopted inside government.
• Bonus of having acquisition, resource sponsor, or program manager experience.

What we value

• Mission-first mindset with a focus on real operational outcomes.
• Technical credibility paired with humility — able to learn quickly and ask the right questions.
• Clarity and precision in communication, especially with senior leaders.
• Ownership mentality — taking responsibility for moving programs from idea to execution.
• Low ego, high trust, and comfort collaborating across product, engineering, and mission teams.

What we offer
