Anduril Industries Program Manager for Strategic Supply Chain defines and executes supply chain strategy for first-of-kind autonomous aircraft. Owns supply risk, continuity, and supplier performance to ensure delivery on cost, schedule, and rate.
Responsibilities
Work with Supply Chain leadership to set and own the supply chain strategy that takes a first of kind autonomous aircraft from development to rate, spanning supply assurance, supply-base resilience, and sourcing innovation
Build supply risk intelligence into a system by identifying single points of failure across critical, long-lead, and sole-source parts, then embed actionable insight into sourcing and production decisions
Own supplier performance and time-to-resolution on disruptions mechanisms, driving sourcing strategy to reduce single-points-of-failure on the parts that gate delivery or rate
Translate strategy into prioritized roadmaps and measurable outcomes, then drive cross-functional decisions when supply, engineering, quality and production priorities conflict
Build and operationalize an innovation pipeline of supplier pilots, partnerships, and new capabilities that strengthen supply continuity and long-term cost position
Connect supplier performance and supply risk to unit cost and the integrated master schedule, so supply chain health is visible in program level financial and schedule KPIs
Define which supply metrics drive decisions versus which report status, building leading indicator systems that enable early intervention
Leverage quantitative models, including trade studies, sensitivity analysis, and predictive modeling, to inform sourcing strategy and resource allocation
Prepare analysis, documentation, and briefings for internal teams, suppliers, customers, and government stakeholders
