Описание вакансии

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold.

About The Team

Anduril's Device and Releases team drives critical aspects of Anduril's embedded system infrastructure lifecycle—the operational backbone of our defense technology. From silicon bring-up through deployment in the field, continuous evolution in production, and eventual decommissioning, we're the strategic nerve center that keeps our hardware platforms mission-ready. The systems we shepherd are intricate, constantly adapting to emerging threats, and absolutely critical to Anduril's ability to defend lives and preserve freedom.

What You'll Do

• Be the connective tissue between our customers, internal Business Lines, and the Device team—ensuring seamless execution while translating complex technical constraints into strategic opportunities
• Bring order to creative chaos—provide structural clarity and prioritization frameworks as demand consistently outstrips capacity, helping the team maximize impact without burning out
• Architect a unified embedded software release strategy that scales across all Business Lines—turning fragmented approaches into a cohesive, defensible roadmap
• Orchestrate cross-functional collaboration across multiple Software Platform teams to build and execute long-term release plans that balance innovation with stability
• Drive decision-making with data and context—synthesize technical complexity, operational constraints, and strategic priorities into clear action plans

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a related technical discipline
• 4+ years managing technical programs or working as an engineer on complex systems—bonus points if you've worn both hats
• Proven track record of shepherding intricate, multi-stakeholder projects from ambiguous beginnings to successful delivery
• Exceptional organizational rigor paired with analytical horsepower—you thrive managing parallel initiatives while maintaining clarity on dependencies and critical paths
• Outstanding communication skills across the spectrum—equally comfortable explaining technical trade-offs to engineers and strategic implications to executives
• Based in Costa Mesa, CA or willing to relocate.

Preferred Qualifications

• A bias toward action—you're not afraid to roll up your sleeves, jump into the weeds, and unblock the team however necessary
• Hardware intuition—comfortable around electronics, willing to grab a soldering iron and debug at the circuit level when needed
• Hacker mentality—you spend weekends tinkering with NixOS configurations, building home labs, or otherwise exploring technology for the joy of understanding how things work
• Non-linear thinking—you see connections others miss and find creative solutions to seemingly intractable problems
• Experience with board bringup and hardware in the loop validation
• Experience with embedded systems, device lifecycle management, or release engineering in high-stakes environments
