# Staff Software Engineer, Production Solutions **Company**: Anduril Industries **Location**: Huntsville, Alabama, United States **Work arrangement**: onsite **Experience**: staff **Job type**: full-time **Salary**: $190,000-$252,000 USD **Category**: Engineering **Industry**: Technology **Apply**: https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/andurilindustries/jobs/5149209007?utm_source=yubhub.co&utm_medium=jobs_feed&utm_campaign=apply **Canonical**: https://yubhub.co/jobs/job_52a33cec-257 ## Description We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join ArsenalOS, the digital backbone of Anduril's hardware enterprise from design to sustainment. You'll architect the distributed systems within our Manufacturing (Production Solutions) team in Forge MES (Manufacturing Execution System) that orchestrate Anduril's production operations,work order management, scheduling, material flow, and capacity planning,turning factories into adaptive, software-defined production networks. This isn't about digitizing existing processes. It's about building the technical foundation that makes Anduril's hardware enterprise more adaptive as it scales, not less. Your impact will span beyond the immediate team. You'll serve as a technical bridge between Manufacturing and our Platform/Foundations organization, shaping infrastructure that meets production-scale demands while driving adoption of platform capabilities. You'll represent manufacturing in broader architectural decisions, ensuring production requirements influence the systems that connect design changes to shop floor execution. Your decisions will determine whether Anduril can absorb more manufacturing complexity without slowing down,and whether we out-build the traditional defense industrial base. As a Staff Software Engineer, you will: Define and drive technical architecture for Manufacturing Production Solutions Make decisions on system design, scalability patterns, integration strategies, and platform vs. build tradeoffs that shape team execution Architect and implement complex distributed systems Build mission-critical services, APIs, and tooling that enable safe, fast delivery across manufacturing production workflows (work orders, scheduling, material tracking, capacity planning) Lead by example with engineering excellence Establish patterns through hands-on work: comprehensive testing, deployment safety (blue/green/canary), infrastructure as code, observability, and operational rigor Bridge product and platform teams Collaborate with Platform/Foundations to shape shared infrastructure based on Manufacturing needs while driving adoption of platform capabilities Partner across MES product teams Integrate Manufacturing Production Solutions into cohesive manufacturing experiences, evolve data models across production/quality/supply chain domains, and drive technical consensus on cross-cutting concerns Represent manufacturing domain technically Work with architecture, security, operations, and infrastructure teams to ensure production operations requirements influence broader technical decisions Raise the technical bar for the team Through rigorous code review, architecture discussions, establishing shared ownership models, and improving practices that balance velocity with correctness Remove friction and unblock execution Identify systemic technical issues, eliminate single points of failure, and create leverage through automation and improved tooling Required qualifications include: 12+ years of experience in a software engineering role building products in fast-paced environments Proven ability to influence technical direction across teams Drive architectural consensus, build alignment, and lead technical initiatives beyond a single team Experience working with large enterprise applications and platforms with high availability requirements Strong full-stack capabilities with expertise in modern web technologies JavaScript/TypeScript, React, and web frameworks (Next.js, Remix, etc.) Systems thinking and domain translation Ability to understand manufacturing operations requirements and design scalable technical architectures that enable production workflows at enterprise scale Excellent communication skills, able to influence stakeholders, translate ambiguous manufacturing requirements and build cross-team alignment U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data Preferred qualifications include: Experience in hyper growth startup-like environments Demonstrated successes in scaling and maturing software development processes, team culture and methods, and ability to balance short-term and long-term trade-offs Manufacturing operations domain knowledge Experience with manufacturing execution systems (MES), enterprise resource planning (ERP), production scheduling systems, work order management, or supply chain management platforms Experience in defense, autonomy, robotics, or mission-critical systems (helpful but not required) Experience with AI/LLM integration Leveraging state-of-the-art models and agentic tooling in production software development Eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. TS/SCI clearance ## Skills ### Required - JavaScript - TypeScript - React - web frameworks - Next.js - Remix - modern web technologies - full-stack capabilities - large enterprise applications - platforms with high availability requirements - systems thinking - domain translation - manufacturing operations requirements - scalable technical architectures - production workflows at enterprise scale - communication skills - influence stakeholders - translate ambiguous manufacturing requirements - build cross-team alignment - U.S. Person status - export controlled data ### Nice to have - hyper growth startup-like environments - scaling and maturing software development processes - team culture and methods - balance short-term and long-term trade-offs - manufacturing operations domain knowledge - manufacturing execution systems - enterprise resource planning - production scheduling systems - work order management - supply chain management platforms - defense - autonomy - robotics - mission-critical systems - AI/LLM integration - state-of-the-art models - agentic tooling - production software development --- Source: [Apply at job-boards.greenhouse.io](https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/andurilindustries/jobs/5149209007?utm_source=yubhub.co&utm_medium=jobs_feed&utm_campaign=apply)
