Anduril Industries is a defense technology company building advanced autonomy, AI, sensor fusion, and distributed systems for U.S. and allied military customers. The Menace Platform Division is creating a battlefield edge cloud and platform (Menace Fabric) that enables resilient, low-latency operations in contested environments; the company seeks a senior engineering leader to define strategy, drive execution, and own the architecture and delivery of this foundational compute offering.

Skills

  • Deep, hands-on expertise designing and owning distributed systems architecture.
  • Proven experience operating large-scale production systems with high availability and performance.
  • Ability to make tradeoff decisions across security, latency, and extensibility requirements.
  • Strong familiarity with cloud-native architectures, containerization, and orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes).
  • Experience leading programs from concept through delivery and sustaining software at scale.
  • Experience deploying and operating distributed systems on major cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP).
  • Strong cross-functional leadership and customer-facing experience in technical programs.

Responsibilities

  • Own divisional strategy, product definition, and roadmap for Menace Fabric from prototype to global release.
  • Define and manage architecture and stack decisions balancing security, latency, extensibility, cost, and schedule.
  • Coordinate cross-divisional engineering efforts and align roadmaps across Connected Warfare initiatives.
  • Deliver rapid prototypes and early releases to customers and internal teams; iterate based on operational feedback.
  • Ensure production-grade scalability, high availability, and remote sustainment of deployed solutions.
  • Recruit, build, and lead engineering teams, set engineering standards, and mentor senior engineers.
  • Partner with senior leadership to secure resources, manage program risk, and report on technical progress.
  • Support customer engagements and travel (~10%) to customer and test sites as needed.

Education

  • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in engineering or a natural sciences field.
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans (U.S. roles) with low employee cost.
  • Company-covered life and disability insurance; generous PTO and caregiver/wellness leave.
  • Family planning and parenting support (IVF, preservation, adoption, gestational carrier coverage).
  • 24/7 mental health resources, therapy, and life coaching; legal and financial services.
  • Annual professional development reimbursement and commuter benefits; relocation assistance where eligible.
  • 401(k)/retirement savings options with employer programs (U.S. roles) and competitive equity grants.
