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.

The Test Engineering team works across the entire spectrum of products ranging from Lattice Ghost UAS, Sentry Tower, cUAS and our other platforms. Our team conducts full system level development testing, new aircraft development, sub-component qualification testing and much more. In short, if it involves test we support it.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• This role will own the end-to-end test coordination process across all of our programs and multiple test sites.

• Establish and manage an in-take process for test event requirements.
• Test events come in all sizes and levels of complexity: short daily exercises with light on-the-ground support required to large multi-week training exercises involving multiple support and engineering teams. This role will work with stakeholders to schedule test events and ensure that resources, equipment, documentation, and communications are all being handled effectively to guarantee a successful test event.
• Maintain and communicate a comprehensive schedule of test events across all of Anduril’s internal and external test ranges.
• Support the internal test range website pages where in-take process, range capabilities overviews, safety protocols, personnel policies, operations manuals, and additional documentation is maintained.
• Support the T&E Manager in test evaluation and approval processes, documentation, communication with internal and external test range personnel, analysis, process and change management, and resource allocation.
• Maintain roster of test range relationships, both internal and external, so that Anduril has a broad reach and capability for testing.
• Travel: 25-50% between internal test ranges (like California, Texas, Oregon) and external partners (like Arizona, New Mexico, & Florida).

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• The ideal candidate must be detail-oriented with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Priorities can shift quickly throughout the day, and the ability to adapt, reprioritize, and pivot with minimal disruption is essential.
• Experience with cUAS, UAS, or other autonomous flight test programs
• Project management experience in technical fields
• Expertise in business systems: Jira, Excel, and Microsoft Office
• BS degree or high school diploma with 5 years of relevant experience
