## Description

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

You will own the schedule that runs the cutting-edge maritime production: one integrated schedule instead of twenty spreadsheets, and the daily call on what the floor builds next.

Responsibilities:

- The integrated master plan and integrated master schedule for module production, horizontally and vertically integrated across engineering, material, manufacturing, and quality.

- Critical path and network logic: find the conflicts, resolve them, and tell the program what just moved and why.

- Shop load and dispatch: what gets worked today, against real material availability, qualified labor, and open nonconformances.

- Schedule adherence and earned value: measure plan against actual, then feed the variance back into the plan.

- Re-baselining when the program changes, with the risk analysis to support it.

Requirements:

- 4+ years in production planning, production control, or master scheduling in shipbuilding, aerospace, or heavy manufacturing.

- Program-level planning experience: demonstrated ability to build and manage integrated schedules for complex manufacturing or defense programs.

- Familiarity with controlled production environments (defense, aerospace, automotive, or similar).

- Fluency with a scheduling toolset (P6, MS Project, Open Plan, Aurora) and with an ERP/MES (Forge, Odoo, SAP, Solumina, Oracle).

- Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities.

- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications:

- Submarine or surface-ship construction: stage of construction, work control, outfitting, planning value stream.

- Critical chain / theory of constraints, buffer management.

- Earned value management.

- Experience standing up a new production line or factory from greenfield.

- Background in defense manufacturing (torpedoes, missiles, submarines, aircraft).

- Digital native: comfortable with modern tools, automation, and data-driven approaches.

- PMP, PMI-SP, or equivalent scheduling certification.

Benefits: Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including comprehensive, competitive benefits package (available at little to no cost to employees) to support health, recovery, and well-being.
