The opportunity

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.

What you'll do

  • Lead the Enterprise Test Capabilities organization—a centralized engineering: team of development test engineers, technicians, and technical leads—providing environmental, structural, wind tunnel, and other specialized test execution, instrumentation, data acquisition, and physical test infrastructure across Anduril’s product portfolio.

  • Own and scale niche test capabilities (environmental qualification,: structural loads and dynamics, wind tunnel characterization, and emerging disciplines) ensuring the organization can execute complex campaigns with speed and rigor as Anduril’s portfolio grows.

  • Manage capital equipment, lab infrastructure, calibration processes, and: shared test assets, including planning, prioritization, procurement, utilization, maintenance, and long-range capability road mapping—to keep pace with program demand.

  • Drive the expansion of internal test capabilities, reducing dependency on: external facilities and enabling faster design iteration, aerodynamic characterization, and product readiness.

  • Partner with program and product leaders to translate system-level validation: needs into executable test strategies, resource plans, instrumentation architectures, and risk-based test campaigns.

  • Lead test architecture and readiness planning for complex hardware programs,: including fixture strategy, data requirements, sensor selection, DAQ configuration, calibrated instrumentation, and post-test data review.

What they're looking for

  • Balance competing program priorities across a matrixed, high-growth: environment by allocating scarce engineering talent, lab space, instrumentation, calibrated assets, and capital equipment against the highest business-impact work.
  • Build scalable processes for test intake, prioritization, planning,: execution, data delivery, calibration control, and lessons learned—replacing ad hoc “hero mode” execution with repeatable, high-velocity workflows.
  • Establish operating mechanisms for resource tracking, lab capacity, equipment: utilization, calibration status, schedule risk, and program support visibility to improve decision-making across leadership teams.
  • Partner with vendors, third-party labs, facilities teams, and equipment: suppliers to expand internal capability, execute capital projects and RFPs, and maintain execution independence where it matters.
