Staff Mechanical Product Engineer (Production)Active
The opportunity
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.
What you'll do
Serve as the primary design engineering point of contact on the production: floor for assigned programs and product lines
Triage and disposition Material Review Board (MRB) actions day-to-day;: participate in MRB meetings and drive resolution timelines to minimize production hold time
Resolve production process-blockers, design ambiguities, and drawing: interpretation issues in real time, exercising engineering judgement within defined authority boundaries
Provide rapid-response engineering support to Production, Quality, and Test: teams for nonconformance resolution, use-as-is/rework/scrap decisions, and repair dispositions
Identify and escalate systemic design issues to core Design Engineering teams: with clear problem statements, data, and recommended corrective actions
Perform and review mechanical design analyses: including structural stress, fatigue life, thermal, and tolerance stackup calculations — to support MRB dispositions, deviation requests, and use-as-is justifications
What they're looking for
- Utilize 3D CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks, NX, or CATIA) to evaluate proposed: rework paths, model design modifications, and generate or revise engineering drawings as needed to support production
- Apply knowledge of materials and manufacturing processes: including metals, composites, adhesive bonding, welding, brazing, and surface treatments — to assess nonconformances and recommend technically sound repair or rework methods
- Bridge the translation of design intent into production-executable work: across multiple product versions, configurations, and manufacturing sites
- Develop and maintain Standard Repair Manuals and engineering disposition: guides that give Production autonomy to resolve high-frequency, low-complexity MRB items without engineering hold
