The opportunity

The Hardware Platform Organization is Anduril's central hardware engineering org. We build the shared technologies, tools, and infrastructure that power hardware development across every Anduril division, from actuators and propulsion to batteries, avionics, rocket motors, and test operations.

What you'll do

  • Design and build custom electrical test racks, test fixtures, and ground: support equipment (GSE) from engineering drawings, BOMs, and minimal instructions often as the first article in a fast-changing R&D environment

  • Fabricate and terminate cable harnesses to IPC-620 Class 3 standards using: mil-spec connectors including D38999, Mighty Mouse (Glenair), Amphenol, micro-D, and coaxial/RF assemblies; perform backshell integration, band-it clamping, and EMI shielding termination

  • Set up, execute, and document electrical test procedures including: continuity, hi-pot, insulation resistance, and functional validation; record findings in test records and communicate issues to engineering

  • Operate and configure bench test equipment oscilloscopes (including: triggering and signal acquisition), power supplies, electronic loads, function generators, signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and DAQ systems

  • Troubleshoot electrical assemblies and systems to the component level using: systematic root cause analysis; drive issues to resolution independently or in direct collaboration with engineers

  • Perform PCBA rework and repair to IPC-610 standards, including SMT and through-hole components

What they're looking for

  • IPC-620 space addendum certification (CIS-S or CIT-S) and/or current IPC-610 PCBA inspection certification
  • SMT and through-hole PCBA rework experience including IC-level components (QFN, QFP, BGA) under microscope
  • Experience with EMI/EMC testing and MIL-STD-461 test setup, including CE102,: CS114, RE102, and RS103 configurations
  • Background in aerospace, defense, or satellite systems environments (e.g.,: SpaceX, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, Raytheon, Rocket Lab, SAIC, Shield AI, or equivalent)
  • Experience building RF/coaxial cable assemblies including layer-by-layer prep: and impedance-controlled terminations
  • Familiarity with test automation, data acquisition scripting, or automated: EMC software (TILE, Elektra, EMC32, or equivalent)
