The opportunity

At Anduril, we are developing unmanned systems for subsurface, surface, land, and air domains that will leverage unsupervised autonomy for the delivery of multi-mission capability to our customers. Deciding what to build — and in what order — requires people who can connect…

What you'll do

  • Understand the enterprise-level mission analysis for the maritime portfolio —: identify operational problems, capability gaps, and opportunities for differentiated system employment, and maintain a coherent picture of them across programs rather than one program at a time and be able to communicate them to the customer across the Maritime suite of products

  • Develop and refine concepts of operation, concepts of employment, operational: vignettes, mission threads, and use cases for current and future systems, and keep them current as designs and customer priorities move

  • Inform capability roadmaps, IRAD and investment prioritization, and: product-market fit assessments by making the operational case for where the next dollar and the next engineer should go

  • Analyze threat environments, customer missions, force structure, operational: constraints, and campaign-level context, and translate that context into capability priorities and defensible requirements for product and engineering teams

  • Compare alternative capability approaches and assess trade-offs in mission: utility, feasibility, scalability, cost, survivability, and operational relevance — including the approaches we should decline to pursue

  • Convert results from at-sea demonstrations, field test events, and program: execution into portfolio-level lessons that change what we build, closing the loop between the deck plate and the roadmap

What they're looking for

  • + years of experience supporting maritime, undersea, or autonomous systems: mission areas; experience across air, surface, C2, ISR, fires, or logistics is also valued
  • Watch floor experience: TAO, watch officer, battle watch captain, or equivalent time in a maritime operations center, fleet or component watch floor, or afloat combat information center, where decisions were made on incomplete information against a clock
  • Significant at-sea operational experience, including underway deployments,: and credibility with the operators who will employ these systems
  • Prior military, DoD, defense industry, intelligence community, operational: test, or tactical level development experience
  • Familiarity with CONOPS development, campaign analysis, wargaming, modeling: and simulation, operational test, or requirements development
  • Experience working directly with government customers, senior military: leaders, product teams, or engineering organizations
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance
