2027 Low Observables Engineer Intern

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 Low Observable Team are advancing into the next generation of LO Technology to enhance the survivability and effectiveness of unmanned air systems.

This is an intern role open to engineers finishing a degree in aerospace, electrical, or mechanical engineering. You will be paired with an LO engineer and start on a scoped piece of a live program, not a training exercise.

Responsibilities:

• Run broadband Radar Cross Section (RCS) analysis on components and full air vehicles, and learn to judge when a prediction can be trusted
• Support the design and development of Low Observable unmanned air systems, from early configuration trades through detailed design
• Build and improve the analysis tools, scripts, and validation workflows the team runs on
• Model LO materials and treatments, and help select and optimize them for specific components
• Support manufacturing and validation planning, including tolerances, inspection methods, and what is actually producible at rate
• Help plan and execute RCS measurement campaigns in indoor chambers and on outdoor ranges, then reduce and interpret the data
• Compare measured results against predictions, chase down the disagreements, and feed what you learn back into the models

Required Qualifications:

• Must be pursuing a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
• Must be returning to school at the end of the internship to continue academic studies for at least one quarter or semester.
• Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export-controlled information or facilities; U.S. clearance eligibility may be required depending on program.
• Ability to complete an in-person 12-week internship in one of our offices in summer 2027.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Coursework in at least one of: electromagnetics or RF, aircraft or vehicle design, or materials and manufacturing processes
• Working knowledge of a scripting or analysis language such as MATLAB, Python, or C++
• Familiarity with a 3D CAD package such as NX, CATIA, SolidWorks, or Creo
• Demonstrated hands-on engineering work: a capstone or senior design project, internship, undergraduate research, or a student competition team
• Ability to explain a technical result clearly, in writing and in a design review
• Exposure to any electromagnetic simulation tool, such as HFSS, CST, FEKO, or COMSOL.
• Coursework or project experience with composites, additive manufacturing, casting, or injection molding
• Experience with laboratory RF measurement: network analyzers, anechoic chambers, or antenna pattern measurement
• Experience reducing, visualizing, and sanity-checking measured data sets
• A prior internship or co-op in aerospace, defense, or another hardware-heavy environment
