The opportunity
The Air Dominance and Strike Division is one of Anduril's fastest growing, most technically complex divisions. We develop and build collaborative combat aircraft, missiles, and the software that powers these autonomous weapons.
What you'll do
Own the program-level outcomes of manufacturing engineering execution through: schedule performance, cost performance, and trajectory toward rate readiness
Build the processes and mechanisms that make OEE, yield, and throughput: visible, actionable, and tied to program-level financial performance
Coordinate with manufacturing engineers to ensure the right problems are: prioritized against schedule and cost targets
Use capacity modeling and discrete event simulation to forecast constraints,: validate investment decisions, and inform production planning
Translate operational data into program decisions that keep schedule and cost on track
Drive accountability for manufacturing engineering outcomes without directing the engineering work itself
What they're looking for
- Lean Six Sigma certification or equivalent demonstrated application of: structured problem solving and statistical methods to manufacturing performance improvement
- Experience in aerospace, defense, or autonomous systems manufacturing environments
- Proficiency with Palantir Foundry, discrete event simulation tools (Arena,: FlexSim, or equivalent), or custom analytics stacks
- Background in operations research, industrial engineering, or data science applied to manufacturing
- Experience scaling manufacturing operations from prototype to rate production
- Familiarity with complex electromechanical assembly, avionics integration, or: composite manufacturing processes
