Description
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.
We are hiring a single, deeply technical owner for power across the portfolio , the person the organization goes to before a site is sited, while it is being designed, and for the decade it operates.
Responsibilities
- Pre-construction & Design
Own the power narrative for every new site and expansion , from site selection diligence through design development, permit set, and commissioning. Right-size user demand. Build load models grounded in actual equipment lists, duty cycles, and diversity factors rather than nameplate sums, and defend those numbers to designers, utilities, and finance. Set the grid interconnection strategy: service voltage and configuration, primary vs. secondary metering, transformer and switchgear sizing, and the staging plan that lets us occupy early and scale later. Define backup and resiliency architecture , generators, UPS, battery storage, paralleling and transfer schemes, N+1 decisions , tied to which loads actually have to ride through an outage. Evaluate on-site generation and microgrid options where they shorten schedule, lower cost, or de-risk utility dependence. Review electrical design packages from AE partners; catch the sizing, selective coordination, and maintainability problems while they are still drawings. Build the cost and schedule inputs for power scope in capital plans, and flag power-driven schedule risk early enough to act on it.
- Facilities Operations & Operational Excellence
Partner with Facilities to translate each new system into a preventive maintenance program , PM tasks, intervals, spares, and vendor service agreements , loaded into the CMMS before turnover, not after the first failure. Own the reliability standard for electrical infrastructure across sites: infrared scanning, breaker and relay testing, generator and ATS exercise regimes, battery and UPS maintenance, arc flash studies, and label currency. Establish power monitoring and metering standards so that load growth, power quality, and capacity headroom are visible per site rather than discovered during the next outage. Lead root cause analysis on power events and drive corrective actions to closure across design, vendors, and operations. Develop commissioning and turnover requirements that Facilities can actually accept , documentation, training, sequences of operation, and as-builts. Build the playbooks, standards, and basis-of-design documents that let this work repeat at the next site without starting over.
- Utility Strategy & Acceleration
Serve as Anduril’s connection to the industry, understanding the direction of alternative energy strategies and driving strategic plans for Anduril’s test, proof of concept efforts related to new solutions. Serve as the primary relationship owner with investor-owned utilities, municipal utilities, and cooperatives across the U.S. portfolio. Find creative paths to fast-track utility work: phased or temporary service, customer-furnished long-lead equipment, contractor-of-choice and self-perform arrangements, construction cost advances, and early-works agreements that start civil scope ahead of the full service agreement. Negotiate line extension agreements, service contracts, rate schedules, and cost allocations , and know the tariff well enough to know what is actually negotiable. Manage interconnection applications and queue position, and keep energization dates honest and visible to the project teams depending on them. Track state, federal, and utility incentive, rebate, and economic development programs, and pull them into the capital plan where they apply. Build durable relationships with utility planning and engineering staff so that Anduril is the customer they want to solve for.
