WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Build an industry-leading set of design standards that enable best practices across all Anduril hardware products (land, air, space, and sea) giving exposure to unique and interesting aspects of the engineering process
• Leverage first principles analysis, design/prototyping, and comprehensive experiments to inform these efforts. Leverage in-house and out-of-house capability to ensure tests occur on an aggressive schedule
• Develop tools/references that enable and force-multiply the efforts of the whole engineering organization
• Work with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to distill their knowledge into targeted guidelines and tools relevant to all Anduril products
• Refine and present disparate documentation (industry specifications, recommendations, references, lessons learned) into one cohesive single-source-of-truth
• Lead education efforts with new hires, discussions/brainstorms with responsible engineers, and participate in design reviews. Win people over with knowledge and data to create a shared understanding of our internal best practices, where they come from, and why they are important
• Implement reviews where needed to ensure high standards of excellence and engineering rigor
• Constantly evolve these standards and tools with an aggressive forward-looking mentality. Roll in new technology trends, address new challenges, etc.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor’s or higher degree in engineering or a hard science
• A natural propensity to organize information, get to the bottom of sticky issues, find the very best solution to challenges, make processes better over time, and artfully document information
• A deep proficiency (professionally and as a hobby) in mechanical or electrical design, structural or thermal or aero/hydro analysis, opto-mechanical design, or other practical/applied engineering field. NOTE: It is expected that you’ll naturally get pulled into your depth as time allows around the duties of the design criteria role
• Ability to produce elegantly simple and concise engineering documentation
• 4+ years of experience working in a high performing engineering organization
• Highly motivated, self-starting, and able to perform duties autonomously without supervision. An inherent desire to work closely with others
• Very organized and willing to establish scope and requirements for ill-defined problems
• Passion for defending the United States and her allies

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience developing code in higher level languages (e.g. Python, MATLAB, C++) for developing analytical models and data acquisition and automation
