• Sensor selection and installation (thermocouples, transducers, strain gauges, accelerometers).
• Experience defining fixturing and test setups for bench- and vehicle-level testing.
• Fluency with common protocols (CAN, Ethernet, Serial).
• Hands-on lab, shop, or flight line environment collaboration.
• Strong organization and documentation skills.

Responsibilities

• Own integration and test activities from component bench tests through full vehicle ground test to flight test support.
• Define fixturing, tooling, and test setup requirements with fabrication and ground support teams.
• Develop and execute test programs that characterize subsystem performance across operating conditions and configurations.
• Coordinate test requirements, load cases, and vehicle configurations for integration milestones.
• Instrument, collect, reduce, and report test data for vehicle models and downstream analysis.
• Ensure safety in integration environments and proper handling of hazardous materials; mitigate risks.
• Support FAT, ground test, and flight test of prototype and production representative systems.

Job description

About the Job

Anduril is seeking an Integration & Test Engineer to join the team at our Costa Mesa HQ. This individual will own integration and test activities for critical subsystems on advanced autonomous platforms, working across increasingly mature environments from component bench tests through full vehicle ground test and into flight test support. This is a hands-on, build-and-run role suited to someone who wants to own a test campaign end to end: requirements, fixturing, execution, and reporting.

What You'll Do

• Own subsystem integration and test activities from component-level bench tests through full vehicle ground test, developing right-sized test plans and efficiently capturing and reporting learnings as inputs to design
• Define fixturing, tooling, and test setup requirements, partnering with fabrication and ground support teams on buildup of test hardware and long-lead items
• Develop and execute test programs that characterize subsystem performance across relevant operating conditions and vehicle configurations
• Coordinate with systems engineering, structures, and other discipline teams to define test requirements, load cases, and vehicle configurations needed to support integration milestones
• Instrument, collect, reduce, and report test data, feeding results into vehicle models and handing off clean datasets to support downstream analysis and flight readiness activities
• Focus on the safety of integration environments, ensuring that potential harm to team members is eliminated by design, with particular attention to hazardous materials handling and heavy-lift operations
• Implement and maintain processes for configuration control of integration environments, test fixtures, and test articles
• Support Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), ground test, and flight test of prototype and production representative systems

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical, Aerospace, Electrical, Systems, or related engineering discipline
• 3+ years of experience in integration and test of aerospace, defense, or complex electromechanical systems
• Strong test engineering foundation - DAQ setup and operation, sensor selection and installation (thermocouples, pressure transducers, strain gages, accelerometers), and fluency in common communication protocols (CAN, Ethernet, Serial)
• Experience defining fixturing and test setup requirements for bench-level and vehicle-level testing
• Comfortable working hands-on in a lab, shop, or flight line environment alongside technicians and fabrication teams
• Extremely organized and detail-oriented, excellent verbal and written communication skills
• A sincere commitment to a positive, inclusive, and collaborative culture
• Defense industry background desirable
• Eligible to obtain and maintain a security clearance

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with aircraft or vehicle-level integration and test, including ground test and flight test support
• Familiarity with mass properties measurement, vibration testing, or environmental qualification testing
• Experience with fluid, mechanical, electrical, or propulsion subsystem test programs
• Background in configuration management and test article control in a developmental environment
• Hands-on fabrication or prototyping skills (wiring, plumbing, fixture design)
