Descripción del empleo

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

Anduril's Maritime Division is transforming American sea power to meet the defining national security challenges of our era and secure our future of maritime dominance.

We are scaling at a historic pace, anchored by Arsenal-2, our new software-defined shipyard being built in Baltimore County, Maryland. It's part of a new $6.6 billion investment in America's submarine industrial base.

Arsenal-2 is purpose-built to break long-standing industrial bottlenecks and scale production of critical components for the Navy's Virginia-class attack submarines to support fleet requirements. At the same time, it will build the industrial muscle to field our next-generation AUVs at scale.

We aren't waiting for the new shipyard to be completed. The work on this transformation starts right now, with development inside our new 160,000 square foot Proto-Factory in Orange County, California, where the team is already laying the foundation. As the prototyping hub for Arsenal-2, this facility gives us a multi-year head start, proving out the advanced manufacturing methods, digital workflows, and quality systems that will scale across our broader shipyard network.

In Anduril's Maritime Division, we are actively building America's next decisive advantage at sea—and this is the moment to join us.

ABOUT THE JOB

You will own energy storage system design for a maritime autonomous vehicle. Reporting to the Vehicle Systems Lead, you will drive cell selection, module design, thermal management, and pressure-rated packaging for battery systems that must deliver ultra-long-range endurance under pressure.

Your spectrum of support will be diverse in nature and require you to leverage your technical expertise as well as leadership skills to set objectives, build cross-functional teams, and rapidly drive to completion. The ability to leverage your intuition and prior experience will be key in making sure the right design, analysis, and test steps are completed to ensure success. The ideal candidate will leverage their experience executing and successfully completing prior highly optimized multi-disciplinary projects.

• Own energy storage architecture: cell chemistry selection, module design, and pack integration
• Design pressure-rated battery enclosures for full-ocean-depth operation
• Perform battery sizing, energy budget analysis, and cycle life modeling
• Drive thermal management design for safe operation across environmental conditions
• Define charging profiles and integration with external charging interfaces
• Interface with energy distribution, structural, and production teams
• Support prototype builds, testing, and design-for-manufacturability reviews
• Contribute to safety analysis for energy storage systems
• Travel up to 25% to test sites and vendor facilities

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent
• 5+ years of experience in battery system design, energy storage, or power electronics
• Experience with lithium-ion or equivalent high-energy-density battery systems
