Description
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.
The Expeditionary Systems team designs and delivers containerized command centers, datacenter-strength AI capabilities, launched effects, and sensing systems for US and Allied militaries.
We're seeking a Systems Engineer to join a lean, high-output team where every engineer has direct impact on fielded products. You'll own systems engineering across the full lifecycle , from concept and architecture through integration, test, and deployment , on products that go to real units in real operational environments.
Key Responsibilities:
- Systems Architecture & Design
- Develop system architectures and lead design trades across mechanical, electrical, software, thermal, and power domains.
- Decompose operational needs into system and subsystem requirements with clear traceability, testability, and allocation.
- Create and maintain systems engineering artifacts including ICDs, system block diagrams, ConOps, and requirements specifications.
- Drive SWaP, transportability, survivability, and human factors trades that shape the product from day one.
- Lead and support design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR) with technical rigor and cross-functional alignment.
- Integration, Verification & Validation
- Own verification and validation planning and execution across analysis, inspection, demonstration, and test.
- Support system integration activities, troubleshooting cross-discipline issues as hardware, software, and firmware come together.
- Conduct FMEA/FMECA and manage technical risk throughout the development lifecycle.
- Support environmental qualification campaigns (thermal, vibration, shock, EMI/EMC, transportation).
- Travel to field exercises, deployments, and customer sites to validate system performance, support operators, and bring feedback back to the design team.
- Documentation & Process
- Develop and maintain Technical Data Packages (TDPs), Systems Engineering Management Plans (SEMPs), and program documentation.
- Utilize modern systems engineering tools (Cameo, MBSE/SysML, Jama, DOORS) to model architectures, manage requirements, and maintain traceability.
- Build documentation that enables customers to operate, maintain, and sustain Anduril products in the field without on-site support.
- Ensure compliance with applicable MIL-STDs and defense standards.
Qualifications:
- Required:
- Bachelor's degree in Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or related technical discipline.
- 2-6 years of systems engineering experience in a complex, multidisciplinary environment.
- Experience developing, documenting, and maturing systems from design through production or fielding.
- Ability to work across engineering disciplines , comfortable engaging with mechanical, electrical, software, and manufacturing teams.
- Strong requirements development and documentation skills.
- Excellent written and verbal communication.
- U.S. citizenship required; ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret security clearance.
- Preferred:
- Active Secret or TS/SCI clearance.
- Experience with containerized, expeditionary, or ruggedized military systems.
- Familiarity with military standards (MIL-STD-461, -810, -1275, -1316, -1760).
- Experience with systems engineering tools: Cameo, MBSE/SysML, DOORS, Jama.
- Experience with weapon system integration, launch systems, C2 systems, or high-performance compute platforms.
- Exposure to rapid prototyping and hardware delivery on compressed timelines.
- Field support or deployment experience with military end users.
- Master's degree in Systems Engineering or related field.
Salary Range: $166,000-$208,000 USD
Benefits: Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including comprehensive health, recovery, and support programs.
