The opportunity
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.
What you'll do
Own the Barracuda mission. Become intimately familiar with the Barracuda: product line, its employment and launch systems, mission planning workflows, and the customer operations and tactics it supports. Be the person the customer calls and the person engineering trusts to represent the operator.
Support test, demos, and events. Partner with Test & Evaluation to plan and: execute flight tests, live-fire demonstrations, capability exercises, and customer events. Own the operational side of getting to the range: site coordination, hardware readiness, operator training, range and safety requirements, and debriefing results back to the customer and the product team.
Train and enable operators. Build and deliver the training that lets end: users plan, load, and employ Barracuda without us in the room. Capture how they actually use the system and feed that back into TTPs, training products, and product requirements.
Shape the product. Translate customer mission problems into concrete: engineering feedback and requirements. Represent the operator at design and program reviews and push hard on the changes that move mission effectiveness.
Grow into sustainment. Partner with Logistics and Integrated Product Support: to stand up the support model behind a fielded munition: all-up-round accountability and spares, technical data and manuals, support equipment, storage and transportation, and field support concepts. As O&S contracts come online, own the operational side of delivering against them.
Grow the account. Build trust-based relationships from the operator to the: executive level, articulate where Barracuda fits in the customer’s problem set, and support proposals and new opportunities that expand the program.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in engineering, science, or a related technical field: (equivalent military or operational experience may be substituted in lieu of education).
- + years of operational, test, or program experience in a military and/or defense industry environment.
- Demonstrated ability to learn a complex weapon system end to end: hardware, software, employment systems, and the operations it supports — and explain it credibly to both operators and engineers.
- Experience planning and executing field activity: tests, exercises, demonstrations, deployments, or live-fire events.
