Scott-Young helped the Saints to the Premiership title in 2024, with the team making the European Rugby Champions Cup Final earlier this year.
The second-gen star will be out to add to his 69 caps with the Reds, excited to be back in Super Rugby ahead of the home World Cup.
"I'm really excited to be back in Australia and playing Super Rugby again," he said in a statement.
"It's such a fast, dynamic competition, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to represent the Waratahs. The club has a proud history and passionate supporters, so I'm looking forward to contributing and being part of something special.
"There's a lot to be excited about with this group at the Waratahs. The squad is full of talented players with huge potential and the coaching setup under Dan McKellar and Lachlan McCaffrey is world-class.
"The 2014 Waratahs were a team that galvanised rugby across Australia, and that legacy has always inspired me.
"I'd love to help this group emulate that success, especially as we head towards a home Rugby World Cup in 2027. Ultimately, I want to contribute as much as I can to the club, help drive standards, and put myself in the best position to earn a place in the Wallabies setup."
Scott-Young's signing continues Dan McKellar's push to bring home overseas talent, with the likes of Pete Samu, Matt Philip, and Folau Fainga'a recruited for the upcoming season.
"Angus is tough and physical with a high work ethic, along with being of quality character, and these are all traits we value at the Waratahs," he remarked.
"He has experienced great success with Northampton over the last four years while establishing himself as a leader at that club.
"Angus consistently delivers a high level of performance when he takes the field, and we look forward to seeing what he can do in a sky blue jersey."
