Job description

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

Advanced Infrared Solutions (AIRS), formerly American Infrared Solutions, was acquired by Anduril Industries in 2025 and now operates as part of the Imaging Business Line. For more than 10 years, AIRS has designed and built world-class, high-performance cooled infrared cameras and subsystems, including critical components such as Integrated Dewar Cooler Assemblies (IDCAs). From its site in Hudson, NH, AIRS is expanding to supply these critical components both internally, to Anduril's Imaging products, and externally, to serve as a merchant supplier to the broader defense, space, and commercial industrial base. Growing the external merchant supplier business alongside internal production is a core strategic priority for the Business Line.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Execute Complex Wire Bonding Operations: Operate and maintain a variety of wire bonding equipment, including manual, semi-automatic, and automated bonders (e.g., Westbond), to perform precise gold ball, wedge, ribbon, alloy, and manganin wire bonding (e.g., 0.001" diameter) onto various substrates such as duroid and ceramic, capacitors, resistors, diodes, and spirals.
• Perform Microelectronic Assembly: Conduct intricate assembly tasks, including the careful mixing and application of various adhesives, glues, and epoxies, and the integration of micro-electronic components such as temperature diodes, capacitors, and alumina materials.
• Interpret Technical Documentation: Accurately read and interpret detailed build sheets, Interface Control Documents (ICDs), and engineering drawings, ensuring meticulous adherence to complex specifications and process requirements.
• Equipment Setup and Optimization: Independently perform setup, calibration, and make minor adjustments to wire bonding machinery, optimizing parameters such as loop heights to achieve superior bond quality and throughput.
• Quality Assurance and Inspection: Conduct rigorous in-process and final inspections, utilizing measurement equipment (e.g., reticle, indicator, microscope, bond puller) to verify bond quality and ensure full compliance with design specifications and quality standards.
• Troubleshooting and Collaboration: Work effectively with technicians, engineers, and other technical personnel to identify, analyze, and resolve technical problems encountered during production, contributing to process improvements and parameter optimization.
• Maintain Production Standards: Consistently meet high standards for quality, consistency, and work rate while strictly adhering to all cleanroom protocols, safety guidelines, and ESD procedures to maintain a safe and efficient work environment.
