From Anduril's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
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.
The Imaging team builds and fields state-of-the-art camera and sensor systems deployed to solve real security challenges for the United States and its allies. We work across the full stack, from bare-metal hardware and firmware to networked services and cloud integrations, and we own our systems all the way through to the field. When something breaks in a deployed environment, we fix it.
We're looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to join the Imaging team. This is not a product development role, and it isn't a traditional cloud-SRE role either. You are the frontline for keeping fielded imaging systems alive: the person field personnel and customer-support escalations turn to when a deployed system isn't behaving. You'll be the second SRE on a small, high-trust team, working directly with our lead, with real room to shape how Imaging reliability and support operate as we scale.
The work is varied and often ambiguous. You might spend a morning triaging a networking failure on a system being stood up at a remote site, an afternoon walking a field operator through a sensor calibration over the phone, and the back half of a week hardening a runbook so the next person never has to solve that problem live again. When a fielded system misbehaves, the root cause could be anywhere in the stack--and you're the one who narrows it down.
If you get energy from diagnosing live systems under pressure, being the reason a deployment stays up, and turning recurring fire-drills into durable fixes, this role is built for you.
The people who thrive in this role share a few traits that don't always show up on a resume:
They close loops. When they pick up a problem they own it until it's resolved, not until it's someone else's problem.
They stay calm under pressure. A system down in the field with an operator waiting is a high-stress moment. They work the problem methodically instead of reacting.
They communicate proactively. They don't wait to be asked for a status update. They document what they find, share what they learn, and keep the people who need to know informed.
They're comfortable with ambiguity at the stack boundary. When a device behaves unexpectedly in the field, the root cause could be anywhere. They have a methodology for narrowing it down systematically rather than guessing or waiting for someone else to have the answer.
They know where the line is. They own frontline support fully, and they know when an issue is a true code-level defect that belongs with engineering--handing it off cleanly rather than either sitting on it or tossing it over the wall half-formed.
