The opportunity
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.
What you'll do
First Line of Defense: Embed on the production floor to rapidly respond to, diagnose, and resolve in-line production issues across assembly, integration, and test — keeping downtime to an absolute minimum.
Downtime & Ticket Management: Own the response process when the line goes down. Triage, drive, and close production downtime & non-conformance issues, coordinating engineering, maintenance, quality, and supply chain to restore flow quickly.
Digital Line Operations: Handle the essential digital administration of the line. Own the day-to-day updates and troubleshooting within our ERP and MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) to ensure accurate production tracking, data integrity, and inventory flow.
Root Cause & Debugging: Perform rapid debugging, testing, and root-cause analysis (RCA) on failing hardware and processes. Implement containment, drive corrective and preventive actions, and escalate systemic issues to the design and quality teams.
Floor Collaboration: Partner hands-on with technicians and assemblers every day, capturing assembly friction points and feeding improvements back into process and design.
Documentation & Training: Create, update, and maintain clear, accurate work instructions, SOPs, and rework procedures so the floor always runs to the current standard. Ensure ECO/ECN change implementations are managed and executed on the production floor correctly and on time.
What they're looking for
- Experience in aerospace/defense or another regulated, high-reliability: industry, including familiarity with defense terminology and processes.
- Exposure to ISO 9001 / AS9100 quality systems.
- Familiarity with optical / opto-mechanical system integration and test.
- Experience in a high-growth or startup manufacturing environment combined: with mature-production rigor (“knows what good looks like”).
- Familiarity with PLM and WMS platforms.
