Senior Industrial Engineer, LayoutsActive$194K

The opportunity

Anduril's Manufacturing Design Team is seeking a Senior Industrial Engineer to own and scale our central manufacturing layout capability and system. The Manufacturing Team is responsible for rapidly iterating and building cutting-edge defense hardware — including static…

What you'll do

  • Own Anduril's enterprise manufacturing layout capability as a long-lived,: foundational asset — architecting it for maintainability, extensibility, and organizational adoption rather than single-use drawings. Work closely with IT and Tech Teams to integrate into existing business systems.

  • Design production line and workstation layouts for both low-rate and: full-rate production using a data-driven approach, incorporating cell design, flow configuration, material staging, operator movement, and ergonomic considerations rooted in IE tradition.

  • Establish and maintain a centralized layout repository: the single source of truth for all production layouts across sites — that integrates with Facilities, Real Estate, and infrastructure planning so building shell decisions and production floor decisions are made from the same spatial model.

  • Build and curate a centralized CAD shape library of standard manufacturing: elements (workbenches, tables, cabinets, tool storage, chairs, racks, conveyors, carts, etc.) so that every layout across the organization uses consistent, dimensionally accurate components — reducing layout creation time and ensuring visual and spatial consistency.

  • Define the enterprise standards for layout creation: file formats, naming conventions, layer structures, revision control, approval workflows, and the entrenched business processes that ensure layouts are created, reviewed, updated, and archived consistently across all sites and business lines.

  • Deploy those standards across the organization: selecting and implementing the tools, software, and mechanisms needed, training layout consumers and contributors, and building the governance structure that keeps the system healthy as the organization scales.

What they're looking for

  • Support facility-level layout planning for new buildings, expansions, and: site reconfigurations — working with Facilities, Real Estate, and infrastructure partners to integrate manufacturing floor plans with building shell design, utility routing, dock placement, aisle widths, column spacing, and overhead clearance.
  • Proactively identify spatial bottlenecks, material flow inefficiencies, and: layout constraints caused by production rate changes, new product introductions, or facility limitations; flag constraints with the appropriate owners and drive to resolution.
  • Produce and maintain space utilization analyses, density metrics (units per: square foot), and capacity-driven layout alternatives that tie layout decisions directly to production rate targets and business forecasts.
  • Translate layout decisions into clear visual deliverables: 2D plans, 3D renderings, block diagrams, and material flow maps — that are digestible to non-specialists so that program, operations, and leadership stakeholders can review and approve with confidence.
