The opportunity

Anduril's Air Defense team builds autonomous robots that find other robots and knock them out of the sky. This team is the nexus of premier Anduril-built products such as Roadrunner, Sentry, Anvil, Pulsar, and Wisp integrated into a software-enabled Air Defense family of systems tailored to the modern battlespace.

What you'll do

  • Direct integration across the system: Own the physical and functional integration of IBCS-M subsystems, working closely with hardware, software, and vendor teams to ensure components come together into a cohesive, working system. This includes driving SDK, API, and secure-connectivity integration for the program's growing set of first-party Anduril systems (e.g., Vampire, RPS-42, WISP) and third-party partner systems, ensuring each new asset can be reliably onboarded onto the IBCS-M network and data fabric.

  • Own test planning, execution, and validation: Define the technical test approach, pass/fail criteria, and test procedures needed to prove the system meets operational requirements, and make the engineering call on whether results demonstrate readiness (program office coordinates the logistics around these events).

  • Maintain technical baselines: Support configuration control, requirements traceability, and risk management across the system lifecycle, ensuring the team is always working against a known, controlled technical baseline.

  • Lead milestone and gate reviews: Own the technical content and outcome of System Requirements Reviews (SRR), Preliminary Design Reviews (PDR), Critical Design Reviews (CDR), and Test Readiness Reviews (TRR), determining whether the system is technically ready to proceed at each stage.

What they're looking for

  • Experience with systems engineering in an autonomous systems, robotics, or air defense environment.
  • Experience integrating third-party or partner systems into a larger platform: via SDKs, APIs, or similar interfaces.
  • Experience working in a rapidly iterating test environment with tight: integration between development and test teams.
  • Experience with requirements and configuration management tools (Jama, Confluence/Jira).
  • Bachelor's Degree in Systems Engineering, an Engineering discipline, or: related technical field; advanced degree a plus.
