Electrical Engineering Technician - Connected Warfare

ABOUT THE TEAM
Anduril Expeditionary Systems (AES) is the team at Anduril dedicated to the development and fielding of next-generation hardware — from man-portable systems to autonomous launchers — that modernize the command-and-control capabilities of U.S. and Allied forces. Delivering these systems at speed and scale demands program leaders who can drive complex, cross-functional execution from concept through production, hold accountability across engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing, and engage customers and stakeholders with credibility and clarity. If you thrive at the intersection of technology and operational excellence, join us. Your work will directly shape the balance of defense capabilities on a global scale.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Reports directly to the Electrical Engineering Lab Supervisor
• Build, assemble, and modify complex cable and wire harness assemblies, including crimping contacts, soldering various connector types, and routing wires according to schematics and engineering drawings.
• Perform precision PCB rework and assembly, including surface-mount (SMT) and through-hole soldering, component replacement, and jumper wire installation under a microscope. This also includes conformal coating and staking operations.
• Execute comprehensive test plans: set up, configure, and operate test equipment (oscilloscopes, power supplies, multimeters, signal generators, etc.) to verify performance of PCBs and integrated power systems.
• Troubleshoot and diagnose failures in electronic assemblies (PCBs and harnesses) and power systems down to the component/assembly level using schematics, layouts, and wiring diagrams, and then executing necessary repairs.
• Accurately document test data, rework actions, assembly details, and failure modes to support engineering analysis and continuous improvement.
• Lab Maintenance: Maintain the lab environment to clean and safe standards, including but not limited to: EHS Compliance, Quality Compliance, Equipment Calibration, Stock Materials and Consumables.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in electronics assembly, testing and rework in an R&D or production environment.
• Strong technical literacy: Ability to read and interpret complex electrical schematics, assembly drawings, wiring diagrams, bill of materials (BOMs), and technical datasheets.
• Demonstrated proficiency in fine-pitch SMT and through-hole soldering (IPC J-STD-001 or equivalent standards). Experience with PCB rework, component replacement, and modification.
• Proven experience in building and modifying complex cable and wire harness assemblies, including crimping, soldering various connector types, and routing (IPC-620 or equivalent standards).
• Proficiency in diagnosing electronic failures to the component level using standard test equipment and documentation.
• Understanding product development, lifecycles, reliability, and compliance testing.
• Excellent written, verbal, interpersonal and communication skills.
• Self-organizing: Able to prioritize simultaneous tasks in an electronics lab/test environment.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Education: Associate degree in Electrical/Electronics, Computer, Mechanical Technologies, or related fields.
• Experience in Automotive or Military Ground Vehicle harnessing.
• Active IPC-610, IPC-620, and J-STD-001 certifications.
• Experience using CAD/ECAD viewers (Altium, Siemens NX, OrCAD, etc.) to locate components/assemblies on PCBs/power systems.
• Experience using Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems (e.g. Teamcenter) to navigate drawing lifecycles.
• Environmental testing: Familiarity with thermal chambers, vibration tables, and burn-in procedures.
• Ability to travel in the Continental United States, up to 10%
