Senior Manufacturing Engineer, Core Technology

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 Manufacturing team seeks a Senior Manufacturing Engineer. The Core Tech Manufacturing Team rapidly iterates and builds cutting-edge defense hardware, specializing in critical Core Technologies such as battery integration, advanced actuation systems, and energetics for Anduril’s sea and air vehicle platforms. This role encompasses the full manufacturing value-chain: Design for Manufacturability (DFM), specialized tooling, process optimization for precision mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical assembly, vendor management, quality planning, and comprehensive documentation for high-reliability hardware.

Ideal candidates demonstrate holistic ownership in solving complex technical challenges with creative, physical solutions, personally manufactured or overseen, within fast-paced, resource-limited settings. As Senior Manufacturing Engineer, Core Technologies, you will drive the end-to-end manufacturing development and production of high-performance hardware across critical Core Technology domains, ensuring robust operation and reliability in challenging sea and air vehicle environments. This role requires deep expertise in DFM for complex mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical systems, precision assembly techniques, and rigorous test development for critical components.

If you are a hands-on engineer who thrives on complex technical challenges, delivering elegant manufacturing solutions, and is passionate about mission-critical hardware, then this role is for you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Leverage expertise in New Product Introduction (NPI) to seamlessly transition complex electromechanical systems from prototype to scalable production, optimizing for manufacturability, performance, and supply chain robustness. Collaborate intimately with Design Engineering teams early in the development process, providing critical feedback for Design For Manufacturability and Assembly (DFM/DFA) specifically for components and integrated systems Design and develop novel tooling, jigs, and fixturing for precision assembly, alignment, and testing of complex Core Technology hardware. , precision joining, component integration, system sealing/conditioning).
