Description

We are seeking a SEIT Lead to join the Omen team based in Abu Dhabi, UAE. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

You will work on a new aircraft development project, bringing pragmatic SEIT thinking to deeply understand local requirements and champion 'Test' as a design tool to drive rapid capability development, ensuring that end-user needs are met in challenging operational environments.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Work with customers and end-users to evolve the regional Concept of Operations (CONOPS) the product life cycle, developing inputs to high-level requirements informing key design decisions.
  • Deploy right-sized, Agile Systems Engineering governance approaches for rapid capability development efforts - with the right amount of process discipline and artifacts and support System Design Reviews (SDRs).
  • Manage System Interfaces and develop integration processes for sovereign Mission System equipment and Payloads, developing test objectives and test plans for execution.
  • Work with partner organisations to coordinate a broad range of in-country development activities including bench and environmental testing of individual components, building and operating Hardware In Lab (HIL)/Hardware In The Loop (HITL) integration environments, flight testing of uncrewed and crewed surrogate platforms, and ground and flight test of the Omen System.
  • Liaise with partner organisations and local authorities to secure operational approvals (airspace, frequency, physical deconfliction, safety, and appropriate test range facilities).
  • Shape, build and utilise Anduril in-country development facilities establishing local capability.
  • Plan, coordinate and execute major test and demonstration events, including resourcing, logistics (equipment export/import), conduct Test Readiness Reviews (TRRs), perform as Test Director (TD), and ensure high-impact, timely reporting.
  • Conduct safety assessments with a pragmatic understanding of hazards and mitigations - holding the safety of team members above all else.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor degree or higher in Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering or aviation-related technical discipline.
  • 10+ years of experience in Aerospace or product development/test and evaluation environments and aviation safety/quality systems.
  • Demonstrable Systems Engineering proficiency, with first-hand understanding of both the benefits and limitations of the approach.
  • Experience in all facets of the test process including writing test plans and procedures, conducting risk assessments, mitigating hazards, running test readiness reviews, directing test events, and responding to unplanned occurrences.
  • Familiarity engaging with interdisciplinary design teams to evolve test requirements.
  • Able to work with stakeholders and partners to find solutions and approach to drive fast test outcomes.
  • Exposure to verification and validation testing, qualification, certification, airworthiness and obtaining permission to operate.
  • Experience with ground and flight testing crewed or uncrewed developmental aircraft (Group 3 or larger) at the System/Platform level.
  • Familiarity with airspace management in the Middle East and other regional regulatory practices desirable.
  • Experience working in the Middle East and Arabic Language Proficiency advantageous.
