About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in mechanical, manufacturing, or aerospace engineering, or a related field.
  • At least 3 years of engineering experience with physical hardware in manufacturing, production, or mechanical design; internships and co-ops count.
  • Working knowledge of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (ASME Y14.5), tolerance stack-ups, and bolted and welded joint design.
  • Experience with 3D computer-aided design (CAD) for fixture and tooling design; Siemens NX is preferred, while SolidWorks or Creo are accepted.
  • Hands-on build experience in machining, welding, fabrication, or assembly; Formula SAE, Baja, rocketry, robotics, and personal projects count.
  • A part or tool taken from prototype to repeatable production, with the ability to explain it in detail.
  • Ability to write work instructions clear enough for a technician to build from independently.
  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Responsibilities

  • Own manufacturing for a major Dive-XL assembly, such as frame weldments, pressure housings, or buoyancy and outer structures, from first article through rate production.
  • Design fixtures, lifting equipment, and assembly tooling for large, heavy structures in Siemens NX.
  • Print fixtures, jigs, and shop aids in-house, test them on the line, and revise them the same week to reduce cycle time and improve technician ergonomics.
  • Build manufacturing bills of material in Teamcenter from the engineering bill of materials, then write routings and work instructions in ArsenalOS for production-floor use.
  • Give the design team design-for-manufacturing and design-for-assembly feedback, and carry approved changes through to the parts and floor paperwork.
  • Help connect Teamcenter, ArsenalOS, and Oracle so changes and as-built records move between them without re-entry.
  • Lay out work cells as the production line is established, support robotic and automated equipment, and use labor, yield, and cycle-time data to identify where automation can reduce waiting, extra handling, and rework.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with large welded frames, composites, or buoyancy materials, including fixture design, weld distortion control, or WPS/PQR development.
  • Experience with subsea or pressure-rated hardware, such as pressure housings, O-ring seals, subsea connectors, or hydrostatic testing.
  • Experience with electromechanical systems, including DC power up to 400 VDC and harness routing.
  • Knowledge of AS9100, AS9102 first article inspection, PFMEA, MRL, or risk assessments.
  • Experience with manufacturing bills of material in Teamcenter or another PLM, routings in an MES or ERP, or production data analysis in Python, MATLAB, or Minitab.
  • Experience establishing new production lines or work cells for low-volume, high-mix builds of large vehicles, aircraft, or ships.

About the Company

Anduril

Builds autonomous weapons for the US and allies

Anduril builds autonomous weapons, such as drones, cruise missiles, and robot submarines, for the US military and its allies, often developing them with its own money before any order arrives. In 2024 it beat Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman for an Air Force contract to develop Fury, a pilotless jet that flies alongside crewed fighters. Its Lattice software merges camera and radar feeds into one live map and lets a few operators direct many drones and weapons at once, including other companies' systems. Governments buy its systems under contract, and Anduril builds much of the hardware in its own factories. Oculus founder Palmer Luckey co-founded Anduril in 2017, and it is based in Costa Mesa, California.
