The opportunity

Anduril is seeking a Electrical Engineer to join the Maneuver Dominance team at our Costa Mesa HQ. The Maneuver Dominance (MD) Team at Anduril develops aerial robotic systems designed to operate in large coordinated teams in concert with ground maneuver forces.

What you'll do

  • Own and maintain electrical ICDs between the Anduril mission system and the: co-development partner airframe — connector pinouts, power allocations, signal definitions, and harness routing constraints

  • Audit the existing ICD baseline for completeness and drive to a fully co-signed revision

  • Design Anduril-side harness architecture: wiring gauge, routing, connector selection, backshell, strain relief, and shield termination per applicable aerospace standards

  • Develop and verify power budget across all operational modes: normal, peak, emergency, and ground power

  • Lead EMC coordination with the co-development partner: conducted emissions limits, susceptibility thresholds, and test methodology alignment

  • Attend partner electrical design reviews as the Anduril electrical interface POC

What they're looking for

  • Support first aircraft electrical integration and interface verification testing
  • Incorporate first-article lessons into production harness drawings
  • –6 years in aerospace or defense electrical engineering with ICD development experience
  • Aerospace harness design: wiring, connectors (MIL-DTL-38999 or equivalent), backshell, and routing practices
