## Description

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

We are seeking a Senior Procurement Manager to lead and scale procurement operations. This is a senior leadership role responsible for building and executing the procurement strategy that underpins Anduril’s rapid growth in critical imaging products and defense programs.

**Responsibilities**

- Lead Strategic Supplier Relationships & Negotiations: Serve as the senior point of contact for key suppliers and subcontractors. Negotiate long-term agreements, manage executive-level relationships, and oversee subcontract administration ensuring compliance with FAR/DFARS, ITAR, and company requirements.

- Drive Sourcing & Supplier Qualification: Lead make-vs-buy decisions and source selection for complex components and assemblies. Technically qualify new suppliers and build a diversified, resilient supply base that reduces single-point-of-failure risk.

- Own Risk Management & Cost Performance: Proactively identify and mitigate supply risks including long-lead materials, sole-source dependencies, and capacity constraints. Drive cost reduction through competitive sourcing, should-cost modeling, and design-for-manufacturability collaboration with engineering.

- Build & Lead the Procurement Team: Recruit, mentor, and develop a high-performing procurement organization. Set clear objectives, establish standard processes and metrics, and create a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.

- Cross-Functional Leadership: Partner with engineering, program management, quality, finance, and production leadership to ensure procurement decisions are aligned with program milestones, budget constraints, and strategic priorities.

**Required Qualifications**

- Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Supply Chain, Business, Engineering, or related field

- 8+ years of progressive supply chain experience, with at least 3 years in a management or team lead role, preferably in aerospace & defense, propulsion, or regulated manufacturing.

- Strong background in procurement, subcontracts, material planning, and warehouse/inventory operations.

- Knowledge of FAR/DFARS, ITAR, and defense contracting practices.

- Proven ability to lead or participate in complex negotiations and deliver results on cost, schedule, and quality.

- Experience in optimizing supply chain processes during high growth or production ramps.

- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence cross-functional teams.

- Ability to travel domestically and internationally as needed.

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

**Benefits** Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including a comprehensive, competitive benefits package (available at little to no cost to employees) that ensures you’re supported in health, recovery, and whatever comes next.
