About the Team

The Air Dominance and Strike Division is one of Anduril's fastest-growing, most technically complex divisions. We develop and build collaborative combat aircraft, missiles, and the software that powers these autonomous weapons. We are currently scaling production of a first-of-a-kind autonomous aircraft. In this environment, every design decision becomes a production outcome, and this role owns that critical connection.

About the Role

This position exists to make the handoff from design to production predictable, fast, and right the first time. You will drive New Product Introduction (NPI) and sustaining engineering changes through the system with clear release criteria, honest impact assessments, and hard gates when something is not ready. Success hinges on your ability to challenge engineering with technical depth, understanding producibility well enough to see problems before they hit the floor. You will also drive decisions between engineering and production faster than the standard cadence allows, earning trust through rigor and preparation.
