Qualifikationen

• 8+ years leading complex hardware-development programs or major workstreams through multiple lifecycle stages.
• Experience coordinating several concurrent programs, stakeholder groups, or subsystem teams in a fast-moving R&D or new-product-development environment.
• Working knowledge of hardware-development and manufacturing timelines, with the ability to identify dependencies, build credible schedules, and anticipate downstream risks.
• Experience aligning technical requirements, schedules, resources, risks, and deliverables across teams without relying on direct authority.
• Evidence of bringing structure to ambiguous programs, adapting the level of process to the work, and driving decisions and commitments to closure.
• Ability to communicate technical and program information clearly through written updates, visual plans, reviews, and direct stakeholder conversations.
• Experience preparing engineering or program documentation, project schedules, and cost estimates.
• Ability to travel for program reviews, testing, and customer or partner meetings, including surges up to 25%.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Top Secret security clearance.

Aufgaben

• Lead program execution across multiple warhead-development efforts, from early concept and prototype work through testing and production transition.
• Build and maintain integrated plans that connect scope, schedules, requirements, resources, costs, technical dependencies, risks, and decision points.
• Serve as the primary program interface between the Energetics Team and Anduril vehicle teams, aligning what must be delivered, when it is needed, how many units are required, and what changes affect the plan.
• Track requirements across platform and warhead teams, identify gaps or conflicts, and drive the right owners toward timely resolution.
• Translate evolving technical work into clear priorities, milestones, tradeoffs, and commitments for engineering and program stakeholders.
• Anticipate hardware-development constraints—including supplier lead times, fabrication, inspection, integration, test readiness, and production capacity—and incorporate them into realistic schedules.
• Keep rapid prototypes and risk-reduction testing connected to defined program questions, delivery milestones, and broader product outcomes.
• Partner with engineering, Product, Test and Evaluation, Safety, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Production, and program teams to resolve dependencies and maintain alignment.
• Surface schedule, resource, requirements, and execution risks early; frame options and drive decisions before they become delivery failures.
• Create clear program communications, engineering documentation, schedules, cost estimates, risk summaries, and decision records for technical and nontechnical audiences.
• Lead post-test and post-milestone reviews that convert lessons learned into accountable actions and improved execution.
• Help establish practical program-management methods for the growing Energetics portfolio and mentor less-experienced program leaders as the team expands.
