Required
Mission First Mindset. We put the needs of the mission and our customers first. We actively seek out opportunities to better understand Army workflows, with a goal to build the best possible products for the warfighter and radically evolve national defense capabilities.
Ownership Mentality. We’re looking for owners—those who have a natural bias to assume responsibility and contribute to a culture of performance. You will actively own the technical and programmatic relationships with key CPE stakeholders, driving challenging and vague technical integration problems to clarity and resolution.
Technical Aptitude and Intellectual Curiosity. We are first and foremost a technology company. You must be comfortable communicating complex technical concepts, understanding how modern software and hardware systems integrate, and getting hands-on in lab environments to configure and test systems.
Structured Thinker and Problem Solver. Leading technical programs requires clear communication and well thought-out plans. We are looking for assertive communicators who can distill complex Army system-of-systems architectures into digestible integration plans.
High Value Team Member. At Anduril, the path to success weaves through the organization. We are a low-ego group that promotes teamwork and collaboration. You can develop rapport at both the tactical operator level and the executive/acquisition leadership level.
360 Degree Leader. We are a flat, non-hierarchical organization. We expect you to lead and influence people through both formal and informal constructs, identifying operational gaps and solving them immediately rather than stepping back.
Deep domain expertise within the U.S. Army acquisition community, including familiarity with modern C2 systems, workflows, and tactical operations.
Experience developing computable, data-driven architectures for large system-of-system deployments

Preferred
Direct experience with the acquisition side of Army capability portfolios.
Experience in Defense Technology Product Management, Solutions Architecture, or Technical Customer Success roles.
