About the Role
Anduril is seeking a full-stack software engineer to develop the Frontier AI Agent Platform, an internal tool for training, evaluating, observing, comparing, and deploying AI agents. This role involves product engineering, ML infrastructure, evaluation tooling, and operational reporting, focusing on building workflows and interfaces for understanding agent performance and readiness for mission-critical use.
Responsibilities
- Build full-stack applications for the Frontier AI Agent Platform, including frontend interfaces, backend APIs, workflows, dashboards, metrics, and reporting tools.
- Create user-facing applications for ML researchers, software engineers, test and evaluation teams, and technical program stakeholders.
- Design and implement backend APIs for launching training runs, configuring evaluations, tracking experiments, observing agent behavior, and comparing performance.
- Build clear, reliable workflows for evaluating AI agents across simulations, test harnesses, mission scenarios, and production-like environments.
- Develop metrics and reporting interfaces that make complex evaluation results understandable, actionable, and trustworthy.
- Partner with ML engineers and domain teams to translate ambiguous evaluation needs into intuitive product experiences.
- Build observability and debugging tools to inspect agent trajectories, tool calls, model outputs, failure modes, regressions, and deployment readiness.
- Create reporting surfaces for stakeholders to compare approaches and make informed tradeoffs.
Requirements
- Strong full-stack engineering experience building production web applications, internal tools, or developer platforms.
- Proven experience developing modern web user interfaces using React and JavaScript or TypeScript.
- Experience designing and implementing backend APIs, including REST, gRPC, or similar service interfaces.
- Ability to build user-friendly metrics, dashboards, and reporting workflows that accurately represent complex evals, training runs, experiments, and deployments.
- Strong product judgment: able to turn messy technical workflows into clear interfaces that users can trust.
- Ability to work closely with ML researchers, software engineers, and test and evaluation teams to understand their workflows and build reusable platform capabilities.
- Strong engineering fundamentals around reliability, observability, data modeling, API design, and maintainable system architecture.
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
