The opportunity

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

What you'll do

  • Serve as the Senior Director's primary technical advisor, maintaining a: cross-divisional view of T&E readiness, risk, and capability gaps across Connected Warfare, Maritime, Air Defense, Intelligence, and Mission Systems.

  • Drive standardization of test architectures, methodologies, and acceptance: criteria across software, hardware, and system-level testing—ensuring consistency without sacrificing development speed.

  • Act as connective tissue between division T&E efforts: identify where one division's test infrastructure, tooling, or lessons learned can accelerate another, and drive reuse.

  • Provide hands-on technical oversight of major qualification campaigns and: developmental test programs, particularly those spanning multiple domains (e.g., autonomous maritime systems with air-defense integration).

  • Represent the T&E organization in technical reviews (e.g., TRRs, CDRs, PDRs): and program milestone gates, providing independent technical assessment and risk characterization.

  • Partner with data and software teams to improve test data pipelines, analysis: tooling, and reporting—defining metrics that give leadership actionable visibility into test throughput, defect trends, and schedule risk.

What they're looking for

  • Serve as a technical subject matter expert on multi-domain compliance: frameworks (e.g., MIL-STD-810, DO-160, NAVSEA standards, MIL-HDBK-516), helping divisions navigate overlapping or conflicting requirements efficiently.
  • Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in how T&E work is planned, resourced, and: executed. Build scalable processes and playbooks that let the organization grow without proportionally growing headcount.
  • Represent the T&E organization to military customers, government test: agencies, and partner organizations as needed.
  • + years of experience in test and evaluation, system validation, or: multi-disciplinary engineering programs spanning both software-intensive and hardware-intensive systems.
