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 real-time, 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
The
Air Dominance and Strike (AD&S) Electrical Engineering Team
is responsible for developing high-reliability avionics, embedded processing, and power systems for Group 5 air vehicles and missile platforms. Working across hardware, software, and mission autonomy, the team delivers flight-critical electronics, PCB assemblies, and FPGA-based processing architectures that enable Anduril's next-generation autonomous air platforms to operate in complex and contested environments. AD&S Electrical Engineers drive end-to-end development, from system architecture and circuit design to verification, integration, and flight test, ensuring scalable, mission-ready solutions that meet the performance, reliability, and survivability demands of the U.S. Military and modern air warfare. ABOUT THE JOB
We are looking for a
Lead Engineer, Avionics Design
to join our rapidly growing team in
Costa Mesa, CA . In this role, you will be responsible for end-to-end avionics systems and subsystems development. You will also be leading a team of engineers and establishing robust design, integration, testing, and validation processes. This will require expertise in PCB design, subsystem integration, process management, and vendor coordination. If you are someone who has led teams supporting rapid avionics development, then this role is for you. WHAT YOU'LL DO
Lead avionics system development
from concept through production, ensuring seamless integration, reliability, and performance across Anduril's air systems. Manage and mentor
a team of Electrical Engineers, driving technical execution and professional growth within the Air Dominance & Strike (AD&S) Electrical Engineering team. Oversee full-cycle PCB and Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) development , guiding requirements derivation, schematic design, component selection, layout, board bring-up, and system integration, testing, and debugging. Architect and develop
flight-critical avionics with an emphasis on high-reliability, resiliency, redundancy, and fault tolerance, collaborating cross-functionally to define product specifications and ensure mission success. Own design verification and integration
of avionics subsystems, developing and executing
Design Verification Testing (DVT), Acceptance Test Procedures (ATP), and Qualification Test Procedures (QTP). Drive system-level electrical integration
for medium- to large-scale vehicle platforms, ensuring compliance with power distribution, signal integrity, and environmental constraints. Coordinate
with fabrication and manufacturing partners, managing Bill of Materials (BOM), assembly processes, and supplier engagement to ensure high-quality production and delivery. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent 7+ years of experience designing, testing, and troubleshooting complex board designs and avionics modules in a UAV or similar context. Proven leadership or management experience in guiding highly technical and motivated engineers Understanding of relevant avionics/electrical design standards for vehicles. Competence with test equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, thermal chambers, current-probes, and automation of tests. Experience in design for signal integrity / power integrity. Familiarity with standard interfaces such as Ethernet, CAN, I2C, SPI, PCIe, USB, Analog circuits, etc. Familiarity with common MCU, CPU, FPGA devices and technologies. Knowledge of modern analog and digital electronics and electronic circuits. Proficient with Altium Designer or equivalent electronic design automation design tool Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Understanding and familiarity with DO-254, DO-178C, DO-160, DO-311A Understanding and familiarity with MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-704, MIL-STD-461 Understanding system interconnect diagrams and defining cables and wire harnesses that connect electronic equipment within the vehicle. Support for software and firmware development related to flight controls, sensing, payload integration, power management, and networking.
