Description
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.
As the Manager, Supply Chain, you will serve as a hands-on operational partner to the Head of Production in Quonset, driving planning, procurement oversight, and materials management for Anduril's Maritime Undersea Dominance product line.
Responsibilities
- Own production planning and material planning for the Quonset site, serving as the central point of accountability for master scheduling and demand/supply planning.
- Drive the day-to-day tactical planning rhythm, ensuring production has clear visibility into what is coming, what is needed, and when.
- Maintain accuracy across digital systems (Oracle on the supply side, Forge/Foundry on the production side), including rev rec verification and ensuring system data reflects reality on the floor.
- Partner directly with the Head of Production on daily battle rhythm, report-outs, and operational cadence to keep the site running smoothly.
- Identify planning gaps and build toward a scalable planning function over time, including informing future hiring needs such as a dedicated master scheduler.
- Provide oversight and monitoring of PO status across the procurement team, catching items that fall through the cracks and directing the team to triage effectively.
- Own visibility into supplier delivery performance, including on-time shipment tracking, inventory health, and escalation of shortages to Production Support Engineers (PSEs).
- Handle boots-on-the-ground procurement needs as they arise, including facilities-related purchases, COTS items, and miscellaneous material requirements that pop up outside standard production procurement flows.
- Provide light oversight and mentoring for materials and warehouse operations at the Quonset site.
- Serve as the connective tissue between operations teams, ensuring alignment on inventory management, material flow, and warehouse priorities.
- Understand and work within Anduril's 3Si (Shared Site Services) model as it relates to planning and warehousing functions.
- Facilitate rather than direct, this pillar is about ensuring coordination and removing blockers rather than day-to-day IC execution.
- Serve as a key stakeholder and operational partner to the Head of Production, providing daily visibility into supply chain health and contributing to site-level decision making.
- Work closely with Anduril's Accounting, Finance, and Legal teams to ensure timely supplier payment, contracting, and financing.
- Collaborate with Anduril's broader US-based Supply Chain organization to leverage existing processes, best practices, and strategies.

- Hands-on experience with ERP/MRP systems; familiarity with Oracle is a plus.
- Working knowledge of procurement processes, supplier management, and inventory management.
- Comfort operating as both a lead-level individual contributor and a people leader, with the ability to mentor and oversee small teams.
- Strong cross-functional communication skills with the ability to partner effectively with production, engineering, and finance stakeholders.
- Ability to work in a fast-paced, unstructured environment where priorities shift quickly. Startup or high-growth experience preferred.
- Positive attitude, bias for action, and a no-task-too-small mentality.
- Bachelor's degree preferred, not required.
- Must be able to obtain and maintain a US Security Clearance.
