Technical Lead - Containerized Effects

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.

Anduril Expeditionary Systems (AES) is building AI Factories and Command/Control centers,specialized, high-performance computing centers designed to process petabyte-scale data and convert it into decisions at machine speed from forward operating bases.

We are seeking highly experienced Lead Electrical Architects to play a pivotal role in defining and shaping the electrical architecture for our product lines.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end architecture of AI Factory tactical data centers and deployable command and control centers
• Conduct architectural trades, balancing performance, manufacturing feasibility, and future scalability
• Bridge the gap between traditional Systems Engineering and Electrical Engineering by translating high-level CONOPS into detailed electrical requirements, architectures and functional modules
• Design air-transportable, modular systems (containerized, palletized, vehicle-mounted) that are rapidly deployable and operationally credible
• Build infrastructure optimized for austere and contested environments,extreme temperatures, limited grid power, SCIF-accreditable, electromagnetic hardening
• Work in tight coupling with Lattice and AI/ML teams to ensure physical infrastructure meets mission-critical software requirements
• Partner with defense customers to translate operational requirements and needs into technical architectures
• Lead prototyping, field testing, and operational validation through military exercises and real-world deployments
• Drive systems from concept through production at scale, working across hardware, software, supply chain, and program teams
• Allocate functions to specific electrical modules and subsystems, defining constraints, interfaces, and communications protocols
• Flow module and subsystem information to PCB design and harnessing teams to guide designs in line with the overarching electrical architecture

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field
• 5+ years of engineering experience designing and deploying electrical products
• Proven ability to think strategically and define the long-term architectural vision for a product line
• Familiarity with embedded systems hardware, including MCUs, CPUs, and FPGAs, and their architectural implications
• Experience with full-cycle ECU/LRU electronics design, including PCBA design through the entire lifecycle
• Experience with harnessing design and connector selection
• Successful track record of releasing products to production and delivering to end-users at scale
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and influencing skills to work across diverse engineering disciplines
• Experience leading cross functional teams on complex electronics projects
• U.S. Person status required (U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee)
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance (U.S. citizenship may be required)
• Must be able to travel up to 15% of the time
