We are seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer to lead PCB design within the Agentic Computational Engineering (ACE) platform team and to encode the realities of space-electronics PCB design and manufacturing directly into our generative engine. In this role, you will own end-to-end PCB design — schematic capture, stackup definition, high-speed and mixed-signal layout, signal and power integrity, fabrication and assembly readiness — for flight hardware, and translate that hard-won expertise into the constraints, heuristics, and feedback loops that let our AI agents design boards that can actually be built, qualified, and flown.

You will work at the intersection of PCB design, space-grade manufacturing, and AI — pairing your own hands-on board work with software development that captures DfM, DfA, and DfT considerations as code. This role is ideal for someone who has personally laid out flight boards, knows what fabricators and assembly houses actually need to see on a drawing package, and is excited to guide the team and write the software that lets an agent reason about those same trade-offs. You should be passionate about both leading a team and building this product: not just designing one more board, but multiplying your impact by encoding your judgment into a system that designs the next thousand.

You will be joining the Agentic Computational Engineering (ACE) team, a specialized group within our Advanced Technology Development organization. ACE is responsible for building Voyager’s Generative Engine – the AI-native platform that compresses complex hardware development cycles from years to days. We design agentic AI systems that pair deeply with physics simulation, test data, and modern manufacturing so that Design for Manufacturing (DfM), Design for Assembly (DfA), and Design for Test (DfT) are built into the very first line of code and the very first sketch of a design.

The position reports to the VP, AI & Autonomy and is part of the Technology and Advanced Development department based in Los Angeles, CA; Washington D.C; Seattle, WA.

This role is hybrid based in Los Angeles, CA; Washington D.C; Seattle, WA.

• Own the vision and execution of the PCB vertical of the Agentic Computational Engineering platform — defining how an agentic system should reason about end-to-end PCB design and manufacturing for space-grade flight electronics, and guiding the engineering team that implements it.
• Frame the problem space for the team: catalogue the design and manufacturing decisions a senior PCB engineer makes on a flight program (substrate and stackup, SI/PI, DfM/DfA/DfT, parts derating, fab and assembly liaison, qualification) and translate each into structured problems an agent can solve autonomously.
• Plan the PCB vertical's roadmap in lockstep with AI, simulation, manufacturing, and product leadership — sequencing capabilities, identifying high-leverage bets, and articulating clear success criteria for each agentic capability we ship.
• Educate the team continuously on space-electronics PCB design and manufacturing — running design-review walkthroughs, writing internal references, and turning your judgment into shared mental models the rest of the team can build against.
• Drive product taste for the PCB vertical: define what a great agent-generated design package looks like, what quality bar it must hit, and where the agent should defer to a human — so the team builds something that practicing PCB engineers actually trust.
• Lead testing and qualification of agent-generated designs — running design reviews, fabricating and assembling representative boards, and executing electrical, environmental (vibe, thermal, EMI/EMC), and radiation campaigns to evaluate real-world performance.
• Provide detailed, structured feedback to the team building the platform — turning every test, fab spin, and design review into specific, actionable signals that improve the agents, the constraint models, and the simulation tie-ins.
• Partner with fab houses, assembly houses, and component vendors to encode their real constraints — IPC class 3, NASA workmanship, lead times, parts availability, qualification artifacts — into the platform so generated designs are buildable on the first spin.
• Set the technical direction for AI-driven tooling in the PCB vertical (Python/C++ services, LLM-based agents, scripting), guiding engineers on how to decompose PCB-engineering judgment into agents that can make decisions autonomously and explain them.
• Represent the PCB vertical to Voyager hardware programs and external customers — communicating capabilities, limitations, and the roadmap with the credibility that comes from having designed flight hardware yourself.

In this role, the essential functions are:

If your experience aligns with our basic qualifications and you are inspired by our mission, we’d like to connect. If you don’t see the right role right now, Join Our Talent Community and stay connected as we continue to build what’s next. 

• 12+ years of hands-on PCB design experience for space, aerospace, defense, or other high-reliability electronics, including delivered flight or flight-equivalent hardware on programs you can speak to in depth.
• Demonstrated technical leadership of a PCB or hardware function — setting direction, mentoring engineers, owning quality, and being the person the rest of the team escalates to on hard design and manufacturing calls.
• End-to-end mastery of the PCB process — schematic capture, multi-layer stackup design, controlled-impedance and high-speed routing, mixed-signal and RF layout, SI/PI analysis, DfM/DfA/DfT, fab/assembly liaison, bring-up, and environmental/qualification testing — in Altium Designer or equivalent ECAD.
• Excellent product taste: a track record of deciding what to build, what quality bar to hold, and what to cut — and articulating those calls clearly to engineering, product, and program stakeholders.
• Strong communication and teaching ability — comfortable running design reviews, writing internal documentation, and educating non-PCB engineers (AI, software, simulation, manufacturing) on what matters and why.
• Strong programming skills in Python and/or C++, and demonstrated use of AI tools, LLMs, or scripting to automate engineering work — design reviews, BOM management, layout checks, parts-stress analysis, or data pipelines.
• Ability to define how an agentic system should reason about engineering problems — decomposing PCB design and manufacturing decisions into objectives, constraints, and feedback signals an autonomous agent can act on.
• Genuine passion for building this product: excited to lead a team that turns your hard-won PCB judgment into a generative engine designing the next thousand boards.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Top Secret Security Clearance.

Preferred Qualifications: 

• Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related discipline.
• Experience leading PCB design or hardware engineering at NASA centers, JPL, major space primes, or new-space companies; familiarity with PDR/CDR processes, NASA workmanship standards (NASA-STD-8739), SMC-S-016, MIL-STD-461G, WCCA/EPSA, and IPC class 3.
• Hands-on experience with FPGA/SoC-based single-board computers (e.g., Xilinx Ultrascale+ MPSoC, GR712, RTAX/RTG4), high-speed ADC/DAC layout, and RF front-ends across UHF through Ka-band.
• Experience defining or qualifying substrates and stackups (e.g., Rogers, Isola Tachyon/MT-40) against electrical, thermal, and radiation-environment requirements, and running radiation effects testing (TID, SEE, SEL, SEU).
• Familiarity with systems-engineering tooling (JAMA, DOORS, Jira) and EICD/requirements practices spanning box, slice, and board level.
• Track record of building or leading the build of internal tooling, design automation, or AI/LLM-based assistants that measurably improved PCB design or review throughput.
• Experience guiding software or AI engineers — translating engineering domain knowledge into specifications, evaluation criteria, and feedback that shape what gets built.
• Evidence of personal projects in electronics, robotics, or RF — the kind of work where you build the thing yourself for the love of it.

The good faith base salary range for this role is$225,000 - $290,000 at the time of this posting. Where you fall within the range depends on your experience, skills, and location. This range reflects base salary only and does not include benefits or bonus/incentive. This range may be adjusted in the future.

ABOUT THE JOB

RAIL has two primary customers:

• Mission Autonomy (MA) — Mission Autonomy at Anduril is responsible for coordinating mission-level behaviors by manipulating hardware. For example, “fly to these waypoints,” “enter radio silence mode,” or “arm munitions.”
• Robotics Business Lines — These teams own specific Anduril robots end-to-end, as well as individual pieces of hardware on those robots.

RAIL bridges the gap between Mission Autonomy and diverse sets of hardware by creating common hardware interfaces. To allow Anduril to effortlessly integrate with new hardware. RAIL enables Anduril to scale and deploy ambitious new robot designs on short timelines by leveraging learnings and investments from our existing portfolio of diverse hardware and products.

For example, Anduril procures autopilots from a multitude of different hardware vendors. Each autopilot has a subtly different hardware interface — some use MAVLINK, some use STANAG, others use bespoke vendor-specific serial interfaces. Despite having different interfaces, they all provide standard functionality that flies along a set of waypoints.

As an author of advanced mission behavior, I shouldn’t care whether my autopilot speaks MAVLINK or STANAG — I just want my vehicle to get flying. RAIL abstracts away these subtle hardware differences from Mission Autonomy by providing a shared, common interface as a layer between Mission Autonomy and low-level hardware integrations. RAIL also provides other valuable features such as hardware custody management and access-control semantics, shared-memory IPC approaches and flexible observability plugins, to name a few.

RAIL is uniquely situated within Anduril. As the layer between Mission Autonomy and low-level-hardware at Anduril, you will find yourself developing a broad set of expertise working with nearly every robotics team at Anduril. To date, we’ve flown all across our US offices and test sites to launch new initiatives with Ghost, Altius, Dive, and Fury. Come help RAIL build the future of robot autonomy at Anduril!

ABOUT THE TEAM

Anduril's TRS Simulation team owns the ecosystem, frameworks, and guidance that make simulation possible, repeatable, and scalable across the Tactical Recon & Strike business line. We don't just run sims, we define what it means for a simulation to be trustworthy. Our team operates across four pillars: Sim Infrastructure, Sim Fidelity, Sim Integrations, and Training Simulations, supporting products like Altius, Ghost, Bolt, and Anvil from early development through field deployment. Every fidelity improvement, every validated model, and every simulation environment we deliver directly determines whether autonomous systems are ready to fly real missions.

Our vision is one simulation framework that serves every product and every deployment target, from a developer's laptop through CI pipelines, operator training environments, and large-scale HPC Monte Carlo campaigns. The same declarative workspace definition can be composed, extended, and deployed wherever simulation is needed, so teams spend their time on mission problems instead of reinventing infrastructure.

THE ROLE

This role is for a versatile engineer who thrives in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment with a different challenge every day. The Sim Integrations sub-team is the connective tissue between the simulation platform and the programs that depend on it. You'll take program simulation requirements, understand the delta against existing capabilities, build clear action plans, and own those plans to completion, including responsibility for positive customer and program feedback. The work moves fast and the priorities are real, but so is the impact: the simulation environments you deliver directly enable teams to develop, validate, and field autonomous systems.

You'll work across the full breadth of TRS products and programs, interfacing with program managers, autonomy engineers, systems engineers, operators, and customers. No two weeks look the same: one week you might be standing up a new simulation environment for a field exercise, the next you're debugging a network configuration across a distributed sim, and the next you're wrangling integration issues across multiple program deliverables. You will own your solutions from design through delivery and long-term maintenance, with the support and collaboration of our team behind you. If you're a jack-of-all-trades who loves thinking on your feet and making other teams successful, this is your role.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Serve as the primary simulation point of contact for TRS programs, translating program-specific simulation requirements into actionable technical plans and owning delivery end-to-end.
• Identify deltas between existing simulation capabilities and program needs, then coordinate across Sim Infrastructure, Sim Fidelity, and functional engineering teams to close those gaps.
• Configure, extend, and validate simulation environments across the full stack, from autonomy and sensor configurations to networking and deployment infrastructure.
• Support field events, customer demos, and program milestone deliverables with hands-on simulation expertise and rapid troubleshooting.
• Collaborate with program managers and systems engineers to align simulation fidelity levels with program priorities, using our team's fidelity rubric to drive investment where it has the most impact.
• Develop reusable patterns and documentation so that program-specific solutions feed back into the platform and reduce the cost of the next integration.
• At the senior level: manage the portfolio of active program simulation engagements, drive cross-program prioritization, and mentor other engineers on integration best practices.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• At least 3+ years of professional software engineering experience in an industry setting, with hands-on delivery of software to internal or external customers.
• Proficiency across multiple programming languages (C++, Python, Bash) with the versatility to pick up whatever the problem demands.
• Strong Linux/Unix fundamentals: comfortable navigating systems, debugging across layers of the stack, and working in terminal-driven workflows.
• Working understanding of networking concepts (protocols, routing, network debugging) sufficient to troubleshoot distributed simulation environments.
• Comfortable with the professional software development lifecycle from start to finish.
• Experience working directly with customers, program teams, or stakeholders to translate requirements into delivered capabilities.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams, prioritize effectively, and deliver under real deadlines.
• Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and established code bases.
• A desire to work on critical software that has a real-world impact.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Additional for Senior candidates:

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• Experience managing a portfolio of deliverables across multiple programs or customers simultaneously.
• Track record of mentoring engineers and establishing repeatable processes that scale beyond a single person.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience with simulation frameworks, real-time systems, or robotics platforms.
• Experience with modern build and deployment tooling (Nix, Docker, CI/CD systems).
• Experience with NixOS or declarative system configuration.
• Familiarity with field deployment, customer demos, or operational support for software systems.
• Experience creating or maintaining software-in-the-loop (SITL) test environments.
• Ability to context-switch effectively across diverse technical domains without losing quality.
• A bias toward rapid delivery and iteration.

• 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
