The opportunity
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.
What you'll do
Drive Material Management Strategy: Develop a deep, first-principles understanding of material management and flow, sub-tier suppliers, and geopolitical dynamics that drive risk in our supply chain. Build analytics to size exposure, monitor leading indicators, and inform investment decisions on inventory, material flow, ERP/WMS integration, and federal compliance.
Build the Strategy, Then Drive It: Synthesize analyses into a coherent material management strategy and bring it to life through executive recommendations. Own work end-to-end — from problem definition, to quantitative modeling, to exec-ready synthesis, to cross-functional implementation.
Collaborate with Executives: Structure and lead working sessions with senior leaders to frame decisions and drive alignment on trade-offs that materially shape the cost, schedule, and resilience of our production base. Translate complex findings into crisp narratives enabling rapid decision-making.
Go Deep in Data and Systems: Master our ERP, MRP, and supply chain data. Build scrappy analyses on short timelines and develop tooling / dashboards that let functional teams continuously measure and act on critical metrics.
You have 5+ years of experience in manufacturing or supply chain operations,: management consulting - or some other experience where you just had to figure out how to get stuff done.
Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities.
What they're looking for
- You are self-driven and relentlessly proactive. You don’t need someone to: tell you to “move”. You just move. We’d rather have to tell you to slow down than to speed up.
- You don’t wait on others to solve problems. You proactively step into the gap to offer solutions yourself.
- You don’t have to be told what to do or how to do it: you’re the first one to bring forward solutions and ideas, and then receptively take feedback on them and iterate with the team. You enjoy the idea of seeing your team as “guardrails” to keep you on track, but not the engine pushing you forward. You are that engine!
- You have an appetite to build clear frameworks to structure problems.: Hardware startups are messy - bringing clarity and structured-thinking to the table is a huge asset.
