The opportunity

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

What you'll do

  • Own the Real Estate Planning Cycle. Run the quarterly portfolio forecast end to end:

  • Gather headcount and program plans from Finance, Corporate Operations, and the business divisions;

  • Reconcile competing plans into one view of demand by division, workforce type, and region;

  • Publish the 5–10 year outlook that portfolio decisions rest on;

  • Track plan vs. actual across forecast versions, and explain why the numbers moved.

  • Portfolio Demand & Supply Forecasting. Forecast seat, office, R&D, and: production space demand against current and committed supply. Quantify the gaps by market and year. Model scenarios (growth cases, program wins and losses, M&A, relocations, divestitures) and their OpEx and CapEx impact.

What they're looking for

  • Efficiency & Utilization Measurement. Define and track the metrics that show: whether the portfolio is working: SF per head, seat ratios, utilization, cost per seat, and production space relative to output. Benchmark them against peers. Turn the findings into recommendations to consolidate, densify, restructure leases, or expand.
  • Workforce Strategy. Work with Talent, People, and division leaders to: understand how Anduril grows: hiring velocity, workforce mix (engineering, production, G&A), in-office patterns, and talent markets. Translate that into location strategy, market selection, and site timing.
  • Executive Communications. Build and present the decision materials that get: C-suite and division-leader decisions made: quarterly business reviews, expansion option analyses, and leadership briefings. Lead with the answer, show the math, and stand behind the numbers.
  • Build the Planning System, Not Just the Plan. Maintain and extend our: planning data pipeline and models (Palantir Foundry, Python/SQL, version-controlled datasets with automated validation), so forecasts are repeatable, auditable, and refreshable in hours. Use LLM-based agents to automate data extraction, reconciliation, analysis, and presentation production, and set the standard for how the team uses them.
