Overview
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. The Connected Warfare Division builds mission-critical systems that enable global command and control for time-sensitive, multi-domain operations. Our Mission Command group delivers software solutions that integrate with hundreds of thousands of endpoints worldwide to support rapid decision-making and operational superiority at a global scale. A Note on This Role:
This Engineering Manager role focuses on people, process, and project leadership—not a technical architect position. While technical excellence remains a priority, your primary emphasis will be on team development, operational execution, and stakeholder management. Your technical leads and senior engineers will drive system design and implementation, while you cultivate an environment where they and the entire team excel. What You’ll Do
Lead & Mentor: Manage and grow a team of 10-15 engineers, fostering a high-performance, high-integrity culture focused on mission-critical delivery and rapid iteration. Strategic Partnership: Collaborate with product, mission systems, and technical leadership to define team objectives, prioritize work streams, and align with broader Connected Warfare initiatives. Drive Execution: Ensure timely and reliable delivery of complex software projects by removing impediments, providing resources, and promoting agile methodologies. Stakeholder Liaison: Serve as the primary conduit between your team and senior leadership, communicating status updates, managing expectations, and advocating for your team’s needs. Quality & Process Ownership: Champion best practices in software design, code reviews, testing, and CI/CD processes to ensure robust, scalable, and maintainable systems that are mission-ready. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with technical peers and other teams to support system integration, resolve technical challenges, and continuously improve workflows. People Development: Invest in the professional growth of your team through coaching, feedback, and structured career development plans. Cultivate a "whatever it takes" mindset and promote extreme ownership. Operational Insight: Occasionally travel (up to 10%) to work alongside teammates and observe systems in real-world operational settings, ensuring software solutions address field challenges. Required Qualifications
5+ years of experience as a software engineering manager, with a proven record of building and leading high-performing teams. 8+ years of hands-on software development experience, with a strong technical foundation in distributed systems, networked applications, or related fields. Successful track record of delivering complex software projects under tight deadlines while managing stakeholder relationships in a matrixed organization. Excellent communication and leadership skills, with the ability to inspire and develop talented engineers. Expertise in agile development methodologies and process improvement. Must be eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance. Preferred Qualifications
Experience managing teams in mission-critical domains such as command & control, robotics, or defense applications. Familiarity with modern DevOps and CI/CD practices. Background in developing software for distributed systems and connected ecosystems. Experience working within or closely with multi-domain operation teams. A deep understanding of networking, security, and system integration challenges in high-stakes environments. Compensation & Benefits
The salary range for this role is an estimate based on base salary; actual offers may vary. US salary range listed: $196,000-$294,000 USD. Anduril provides competitive equity, comprehensive benefits, and a range of programs including health, life, mental health resources, professional development, PTO, caregiver & wellness leave, family planning support, retirement plans, and relocation support where eligible. All qualified applicants will be treated equally, without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic. Anduril is an equal-opportunity employer and is committed to a diverse and inclusive workplace. If you are passionate about solving real-world problems, we’d love to hear from you.
