Anduril
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.
At Anduril we are developing un‑crewed maritime and air domain systems that leverage unsupervised autonomy for the delivery of long endurance, multi‑mission capability to our customers. These projects, including but not limited to the Extra Large Autonomous Undersea Vehicle (XL‑AUV) Program, require a Technical Program Manager with experience of end to end project delivery from planning, coordination and execution.
