Anduril Industries; Costa Mesa (CA); On-site; USD 142,000 - 188,000; Full time

Job summary

Anduril Industries seeks an Operations Manager to join our Internal Mobility team, owning day-to-day moves into new roles across People Ops, TA Ops, and Division Ops. You will ensure smooth processing, escalation, and alignment with partner teams while building scalable workflows and tooling to support a growing mobility program.

You’ll deliver end-to-end process improvements, ownership of systems like Greenhouse and Jira, and analytics to drive program health and faster internal moves.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in People Operations, HR Operations, Talent Operations, or a related function.
• Direct experience building and improving operational workflows—turned processes from Slack threads/spreadsheets into repeatable, scalable systems.
• Demonstrated ability to navigate across multiple operational domains simultaneously.
• Proficiency with HRIS platforms (Workday strongly preferred), applicant tracking systems (Greenhouse preferred), and project management tools (Jira/Foundry).
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to pull data, build reports, and use metrics to tell a story about program health and business impact.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to present to leadership and coordinate across teams with different priorities.
• Must be a U.S. Person (U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident) to satisfy federal contract requirements.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end processing of internal moves, from eligibility verification through start-date coordination and transition closeout, ensuring a consistent and positive experience for employees, hiring managers, and partner teams.
• Serve as first escalation point and advisor on eligibility checks, compensation partnership, start-date negotiation, and transition oversight for every internal move.
• Assess current workflows, identify bottlenecks and friction points, and implement process improvements that increase speed, quality, and compliance.
• Build and maintain operational playbooks, SOPs, and escalation paths so internal mobility processes run consistently regardless of division or role type.
• Own systems infrastructure across Greenhouse, Foundry/Jira, and internal systems so they are operationally seamless, data-integrated, and provide a frictionless experience for employees and managers.
• Design and build automations — intake forms, status tracking, notification triggers, handoff checklists — that reduce churn and eliminate dropped handoffs between teams.
• Implement and optimize tracking and reporting tools that give the Internal Mobility team and its partners clear visibility into move status, pipeline health, and operational performance.
• Monitor adoption and surface operational feedback from Anduril’s internal mobility tools, ensuring our tooling supports the process rather than creating another speed bump.
• Serve as the go-to operational partner for Recruiters, People Business Partners, Compensation, and Division Ops teams navigating internal moves, bridging different parts of the organization to achieve coordinated outcomes.
• Execute rollout and adoption plans for new mobility processes and systems, ensuring stakeholders are informed, prepared, and able to operate against updated workflows.
• Track adoption metrics and surface what's working and what isn't so the team can iterate.
• Maintain and operationalize eligibility criteria, internal posting policies, and movement guidelines. Partner with the Compensation team on comp treatment for internal moves.
• Build and maintain the mobility analytics stack: internal hire rates by division, time-to-fill for internal candidates, retention impact, skill-gap closures, cost savings vs. external hires, and overall program health.
• Develop reporting dashboards and analyze operational metrics — including cycle time, resolution quality, and process compliance — to surface bottlenecks and drive improvement.
• Produce quarterly reports for leadership and ad-hoc analysis for People Business Partners and Division Ops leads.
