## Description

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

We are looking for a Systems Engineer Co-op to join our rapidly growing team. In this role, you'll get hands-on exposure to how Anduril develops technical strategy and executes complex, integrated hardware and software programs , from pre-award demonstrations through early contract phases and full execution.

**Responsibilities** You will own one or more scoped projects end to end, with mentor support, over the engagement. Candidate projects include:

- Trade study support , Perform a system-level trade study balancing risk, cost, and performance for a defined design decision. Deliverable: trade study writeup and recommendation reviewed by the engineering team.

- Requirements decomposition exercise , Take a defined complex system requirement and decompose it into executable sub-requirements, under mentor guidance. Deliverable: requirements decomposition document validated against an existing design.

- Design review support , Prepare supporting technical materials for an upcoming design review (SRR, PDR, or CDR) for a defined subsystem. Deliverable: review package contribution and follow-up action summary.

- Test planning support , Support the development of qualification or acceptance test requirements and pass/fail criteria for a defined component, including coordination with a vendor or subsystem owner. Deliverable: test plan contribution and results summary.

- Cross-disciplinary integration project , Work with engineers across two or more disciplines (e.g., mechanical and software) to support integration of a defined subsystem. Deliverable: integrated subsystem passing checkout, plus a summary of cross-team tradeoffs.

- Technical briefing development , Support the development of a technical briefing or status update communicating program progress to internal stakeholders. Deliverable: reviewed briefing materials used in an actual program review.
