MRB Analysis Engineer, Fury

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

The Air Dominance and Strike Aerostructures Engineering Team is responsible for designing and analyzing advanced structural parts for Group 5 air vehicles and missile platforms.

As the MRB Analysis Engineer, you will serve as the engineering authority dispositioning Material Review Board (MRB) non-conformances for metallic and composite primary and secondary structures on Group 5 air vehicles.

Responsibilities:

• Perform structural substantiation analysis , static strength, fatigue, damage tolerance, and buckling , using first-principle hand calculations and finite element methods to support use-as-is, repair, and scrap dispositions.
• Write clear, defensible disposition packages that restore airworthiness and meet program certification requirements.
• Develop and continuously improve MRB work methods, tools, and standard dispositions to scale the process as production rates increase.
• Monitor trends in recurring non-conformances and drive root cause and corrective action (RCCA) efforts with Quality, Manufacturing Engineering, and Materials & Processes (M&P).
• Coordinate directly with Quality Assurance, Manufacturing, Design, and M&P to resolve non-conformances quickly without compromising structural integrity.
• Conduct trade studies to evaluate repair versus rework versus scrap decisions, balancing schedule, cost, and performance.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of experience in aerospace structural analysis, with direct experience dispositioning non-conformances (MRB, liaison, or stress engineering).
• Strong understanding of static strength, fatigue, damage tolerance, and load path analysis for metallic and composite structures.
• Proficiency with finite element analysis tools (NASTRAN or equivalent) and classical hand-calculation methods.
• Experience analyzing and substantiating repairs for both metallic and composite aircraft structures.
• Excellent written communication skills , able to produce clear, technically rigorous disposition packages under schedule pressure.
• Self-driven with strong autonomy and adaptability in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
• Ability to travel up to 50% to vendors, production, and test sites as needed to support hardware builds and troubleshoot issues directly.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Prior MRB signature/delegated authority on a production aerospace program.
• Experience with high-rate or rapidly scaling production environments.
• Familiarity with military airworthiness and structural substantiation standards (e.g., MIL-HDBK-5, MIL-STD-1530).
• Experience with composite laminate fastened and bonded structure repair.
• CATIA or Siemens NX proficiency.
• Hands-on experience in an aircraft manufacturing or depot repair environment.
• Broad experience across a range of aircraft or missile programs.

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