Full job description

Electricity grids are undergoing the most significant transformation in a century. The shift to renewables, the proliferation of rooftop solar, batteries, and EVs, and the increasing complexity of distribution networks are forcing utilities to operate their grids in fundamentally new ways.

Gridsight builds the data engine that makes this possible. We're already embedded with most of Australia's major distribution networks and have contracts with some of the largest investor-owned utilities in the United States. We're well-funded, growing quickly, and positioned at the centre of a global shift toward dynamic grid management.

The Role

We're hiring a Senior or Staff-level Software Engineer to join our engineering team and help build the next generation of our platform.

You'll work across the stack, owning features end-to-end - from understanding the problem through to shipping and iterating in production. The work spans our grid analytics platform: building the software that helps utilities understand, operate, and optimise their networks as the energy transition accelerates.

We're building an engineering culture where AI-assisted development is the norm, not the exception. We expect our engineers to be actively using agentic coding tools and LLM-assisted workflows to move faster, think bigger, and deliver more. If you're already working this way - or you're the kind of engineer who's itching to - you'll fit right in.

What You'll Do

• Build and ship high-impact software features across the Gridsight platform
• Own features end-to-end: from understanding the problem through to shipping and iterating in production
• Make sound trade-offs between speed, quality, and scope to maximise product outcomes
• Collaborate with product, data science, and data engineering to shape how our platform evolves
• Leverage AI-assisted development tooling to accelerate delivery and raise the bar on what a small team can ship
• Contribute to engineering culture: code quality, testing, observability, and knowledge sharing

What You'll Bring

• 4–8+ years of software engineering experience with a track record of delivering impact at Senior or Staff level
• Strong engineering fundamentals: clean architecture, testing practices, code review, CI/CD — in service of shipping things that matter
• Experience shipping user-facing product features in production
• Fluency in the use of AI-assisted development tools — you're already using agentic coding tools, LLM-assisted workflows, or similar to accelerate your work
• Strong ownership and a bias to action — you take things from idea to working software without waiting to be told

What Would Set You Apart

• Experience building LLM-integrated product features in production
• Frontend development experience with modern frameworks (React or similar)
• Experience in energy, utilities, or infrastructure technology
• Distributed systems or data engineering experience

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and equity package
• Remote-first, with head office in Sydney
• A talented team of engineers, data scientists, and power systems specialists working on hard problems that matter

About the Team

Anduril's Maritime Division has assembled a diverse team of experts in software, robotics, artificial intelligence, sensor fusion, and data analysis to create software and hardware solutions that radically evolve the capabilities of our customers. We are fielding the next generation of autonomous systems to tackle the extremely challenging industry demands of maritime operations. Anduril has brought to market a unique, ultra-long-range, full-ocean-depth underwater vessel platform and a completely refreshed maritime vehicle and flexible manufacturing architecture that scales from "small" to "extra-large" vehicle sizes. Today, Anduril is executing on billion-dollar contracts while simultaneously performing Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) AUV operations.

We are seeking to sustain our early successes with deep investment in an expanded product portfolio. These products, including Dive-XL, Dive-LD, Copperhead, Seabed Sentry, and other unannounced systems, will deliver a coherent system-of-systems, enabling the end-to-end conduct of a variety of autonomous missions in the maritime domain. If you are passionate about solving problems that have real impact and working on systems that directly contribute to achieving national strategic priorities, we want you to join Anduril's Maritime Division and help us build the future of defence capability.

About the Job

Senior Software Engineers independently drive the delivery of a variety of software integrated in to our products. This includes autonomy, simulation, data processing, payload integration, and off-board command and control and decision support. We expect Senior Software Engineers to demonstrate end-to-end outcome ownership at the major subsystem or system level. Senior Software Engineers contribute as a technical lead to the rapid architecting, design, delivery, support, and evolution of next generation autonomous platforms through their entire product life-cycle.

What You'll Do

• Empathize with end-users and drive solutions that balance their needs with external constraints, restrictions and requirements in a multi-stakeholder environment
• Own software enabled solutions that are deployed to customers, optimizing for the delivery of value to the end-user
• Design and implement scalable software that rapidly delivers capability beyond the scope of current platforms, with a clear path for both architecture and capability evolution over time
• Contribute to the design and development of existing software services across Anduril, with the aim of developing components that are re-usable across multiple Anduril product lines
• Develop software that runs on- and off- robotic platforms, using a variety of technologies
• Contribute to the design, implementation and execution of development processes for the initial delivery and subsequent iteration of vehicle and mission software, including full lifecycle testing, monitoring and operation
• Create test and simulation fixtures that operate with both software- and hardware-in-the-loop
• Support vehicle manufacturing and deployment
• Work as a member of a multi-disciplinary engineering team, including as a mentor for Software Engineers from differing backgrounds
• Travel to co-locate with end-users and/or other teams up to 20% of the time

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Robotics, Mechatronics, Computer Science, Engineering, a relevant field, or equivalent experience
• Extensive professional experience working as a Software Engineer with one or more domains and/or technologies of expertise
• Systems and/or application programming skills including algorithms, data structures, concurrency, scaling, testing, infrastructure, software design and system design
• Experience troubleshooting and analyzing remotely deployed software systems
• Capacity to work holistically on software enabled capabilities up and down the software stack and through lifecycle through design, implementation, operation and sustainment
• Capacity to act as the technical owner for a software service, including stakeholder engagement, requirements definition, roadmap management, team co-ordination, design, implementation, sustainment and evolution
• Capacity learn and grow individually, while mentoring junior team members effectively, building team cohesion and capacity
• Ability to obtain and maintain an Australian Government Security Clearance
•
