ABOUT THE TEAM

Anduril Maritime delivers platforms, systems, and integrated effects in the maritime domain. Our autonomous vehicles (sub-surface and surface) are the cornerstone of these capabilities, and we continually strive to push the boundaries of the possible in terms of endurance, autonomy and mission capability. The Maritime team develops and maintains core products and payloads, and adapts and applies those products to serve a wide variety of defense, IC and commercial customers in US and international markets.

ABOUT THE JOB

As a Software Engineer, Backend Core Platform on the Maritime Digital Production team, you will build the core services and data pipelines that connect design, manufacturing, and operations across our digital shipbuilding ecosystem. You’ll design and implement backend systems that move critical information between tools and teams, creating the foundation for a unified, real-time view of production.

In this role, you’ll develop backend applications and internal APIs that retrieve and push information across enterprise systems such as PLM, ERP, WMS, and MES. You’ll also enhance model-based definitions within PLM environments like Teamcenter, integrating AI-driven insights to make engineering and production workflows smarter and more adaptive.

You’ll collaborate with digital, manufacturing, and corporate technology teams across Anduril in a high-tech, fast-paced culture of innovation that values creative problem solving and precision execution. If you’re driven to build scalable systems that link digital design with real-world manufacturing, you’ll be helping build the future of digital shipbuilding and the next generation of maritime vehicles.
