What the posting says

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

ABOUT THE TEAM

Anduril Intelligence Systems (AIS) is focused on positioning Anduril as a lead provider of specialized engineering and products for Intelligence Community (IC) customers. We work within the IC to understand their requirements, shape their concepts of operation, and deliver exquisite capability across their problem set. We aim to develop and deploy critically needed capabilities that address our customers’ most pressing national security requirements.

ABOUT THE JOB

Anduril is seeking a Program Director to lead the execution of a new product line of critical network capabilities.

A successful candidate will not only have a strong technical background, but must also possess a vision for leadership that embraces Anduril’s mission to disrupt the defense technology ecosystem across technical and programmatic domains.

Success in this position hinges on three key facets:

Systems and engineering mindset - the ability to understand and assess technical concepts. Identifying system dependencies, interfaces, technical risks and the impact of key architectural decisions with the engineering team.

Execution focused - digging into the details, charting the path and owning the outcome. You will be expected to utilize your technical aptitude in conjunction with your program management, and leadership skills to deliver the best outcome for Anduril and the customer.

Collaborative partnership - managing customer relationships and shaping the future of the program with the government.

Develop strong, trusting relationships with Anduril’s customers across all domains, ensuring we have tight feedback loops that enable us to shape solutions, rapidly iterate, and ultimately field solutions faster

Autonomously execute on broad and/or ambiguous requirements from internal engineering, customers, and third party corporate partners to own successful delivery of outcomes on multiple programs simultaneously

Monitor and manage program progress across cost, schedule, and resource allocation, making tradeoffs that enable us to deliver best-in-class solutions to our customers on-time and on-budget

Develop and implement lightweight processes, tools, and metrics for program planning, scope management, risk management, and customer communication to enable Anduril to move rapidly

Be high ownership on all pieces of work and become a trusted partner and advisor to Anduril’s engineers

Foster a creative, high-performance culture within the team, and proactively assess team skills versus needs, identifying personnel development or recruitment opportunities to strengthen the team’s capabilities

Collaborate with finance and business development teams to develop novel pricing strategies for proposals that set Anduril up for long term financial and operational success

Collaborate with senior management to develop and refine the strategic roadmap for R&D investments that underpin the success of our programs
