Technical Recruiter, Production (Contract)

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

As a member of Anduril's Air Dominance and Strike Production Recruiting team, you'll own hiring for our Air Dominance and Strike program, the manufacturing engineering, production, and supply chain talent that turns designs into deliverable systems on the factory floor.

This is hands-on, full cycle recruiting on a small team where no task is too big or too small. You'll partner directly with operations and program leaders to define what "good" looks like, then go find it, pitch it, and close it.

Responsibilities

• Move fast with a system. Source, track, and maintain a high volume of candidates without dropping the ball, keeping open lines of communication with stakeholders at every step.
• Speak production fluently. Get into the business and onto the floor to understand the product, the technical roadmap, and the team's manufacturing reality.
• Connect headcount to outcomes. Translate a missing role into what it costs the line in throughput and revenue and use that to drive urgency and prioritization with hiring managers.
• Be a trusted partner, not an order-taker. Build deep trust with operations and program leaders through consistency and a strong operating rhythm.
• Close exceptional talent. Develop a sharp understanding of the mission, learn to pitch the team and opportunity, and bring offers across the line.
• Run on data. Track and analyze pipeline and performance data to find areas of opportunity and turn it into a data-driven narrative that builds momentum.
• Invent and simplify. Build recruiting strategies that scale with the company, implementing referrals, process improvements, and automation where they move the needle.
• Master your tools. Act as a subject-matter expert in prospecting, information retrieval, data extraction, web-scraping, process automation, and candidate management.
• Interview with judgment. Conduct candidate interviews and anticipate hiring-manager preferences.
• Engage passive talent. Source through LinkedIn Recruiter, Gem, Boolean strings, referrals, and SOBO campaigns.
• Protect the candidate’s experience. Deliver a consistent, positive experience throughout the process with proactive communication and engagement.

Core Requirements

• 4+ years of sourcing for technical roles and engaging top-tier talent.
• 3+ years of client-facing experience working with Hiring Managers and Directors.
• A deep network and real fluency in manufacturing engineering, production, and/or supply chain.
• Operationally minded with strong closing and negotiation skills.
• Experience working with government contractors, DoD agencies, and IC agencies.
• Experience hiring candidates with U.S. security clearances.
• Working knowledge of applicant tracking and HRIS systems.

Preferred Requirements

• Experience at an agency or fast-paced startup supporting manufacturing, supply chain, or production environments.
• Hands-on experience working in production and/or supply chain.
