As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

  • Continuously evaluate and improve production processes to enhance efficiency, reduce waste, and lower costs.
  • Coordinate with the maintenance team to ensure all production equipment is optimally utilized.
  • Drive urgency and accountability by leveraging tools such as SPC, KPIs, and other performance data analysis. Employ problem solving and data-driven decision-making, and coach the production team to do the same.


REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 5+ years experience in production leadership
  • Excellent leadership, organization, and communication skills
  • Strong knowledge of production management principles and demonstrated success executing them
  • Proficiency in production management software and Microsoft Office
  • U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data.

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Manufacturing, Business Management, or a related field
  • Exposure to multiple production management platforms including ERPs, MESs, and other data management systems
  • Experience working in safety and quality critical environments such as energetics, aerospace, chemicals, etc.
