Job description
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
