Descripción de la vacante

Anduril Industries is seeking a Staff DFx Manufacturing Engineer to drive design-for-manufacturability across avionics, electronics, and harness subsystems. You will embed with design teams, lead DFx reviews, and translate manufacturing constraints into actionable design guidance for scalable production.

You will mentor engineers, develop DFx standards, and collaborate with supply chain, quality, and operations to ensure producibility.

Formación

• Experience leading DFM/DFA/DFT reviews and translating findings into design improvements.
• Ability to read electrical schematics, PCB layouts, harness drawings and mechanical packaging.
• Strong command of IPC standards and application to design decisions.
• Cross-functional collaboration across design, supply chain, quality and operations.

Responsabilidades

• Own and drive the DFx process for avionics, electronics, and harnessing subsystems from concept to rate production.
• Lead structured DFM/DFA/DFT reviews with a scoring methodology to identify producibility risks.
• Embed with design teams to provide real-time manufacturing feedback on PCBA layout and connectors.
• Develop and maintain DFx standards, guidelines, and scorecards for electronics manufacturing.
• Analyze designs across manufacturability, quality, spec adherence, process capability, and tech maturity.
• Champion testability early in the design cycle with access, boundary scan, and fixtures.
• Collaborate with quality to ensure DFx findings feed inspection plans and control strategies.
• Work with supply chain to assess supplier capability and make-vs-buy decisions.
• Close loop between production feedback and upstream design improvements.
• Build and evolve the DFx toolkit and training materials.
• Mentor junior/mid-level engineers on DFx principles and reviews.
• Travel to production sites and suppliers as needed (<10%).
