The opportunity

At Anduril, our Industrial Engineers are the architects of scalability, taking cutting-edge defense hardware—including static equipment, moving ground systems, sensors, undersea, and flight vehicles—and transforming them into mature, high-rate production realities across our…

What you'll do

  • Architect Scalable Industrial Engineering Systems: Build, govern, and scale long-lived enterprise capabilities—establishing centralized repositories and single sources of truth for labor content, factory layouts, or stochastic capacity models across production sites.

  • Establish Labor Standards & Work Measurement: Define and lead defensible time study methodologies (e.g., MODAPTS, MTM, stopwatch, video analysis), manage labor content maturity through NPI and Engineering Change Order (ECO) lifecycles, and integrate validated times directly into Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) to drive line balancing and staffing models.

  • Design & Optimize Factory Footprints: Architect data-driven 2D/3D manufacturing line layouts, cellular configurations (U-cells, one-piece flow), and ergonomic workstations using factory CAD tools; curate standardized CAD shape libraries; and design integrated material flow systems (kitting strategies, line-side delivery) in close collaboration with Facilities and Real Estate.

  • Model Capacity, Bottlenecks & Capital ROI: Develop dynamic Discrete Event Simulation (DES) models and automated data pipelines (Python/SQL) to stress-test production ramps, identify throughput constraints, and deliver quantified ROI trade-off analyses for major capital investments.

  • Bridge Design & Operations: Connect validated industrial engineering data to operational decision-making, partnering cross-functionally with Design, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Quality, and Program Management to de-risk production scale-up.
