Anduril Industries, Inc., Costa Mesa, California, United States, 92626
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 unmanned systems for subsurface and other domains that will 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 Senior Mechanical Engineers with broad experience to drive the delivery a variety of software‑enabled hardware capabilities to our customers. Anduril Mechanical Engineers rapidly develop expertise in new domains in order to architect, design, deliver, support, and evolve next generation capabilities through the entire product life‑cycle.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Own the physical design, prototyping and fabrication of robotic systems that are deployed to customers, focused on the delivery of value to the end‑user
Act as a subject matter expert for your areas of expertise as they relate to the delivery of Anduril’s technology capabilities, including areas such as motor and actuator selection, transmission design, layout, prototype fabrication, integration and testing
Design and perform structural, modal and dynamic analyses on critical mechanical systems
Design, prototype, and build complex mechanisms and actuated mechanical systems
Design and implement integrated systems, including advanced and sensitive platforms and payloads, that rapidly deliver capability beyond the scope of current systems, with a clear path for both architecture and capability evolution over time
Empathise with end‑users and drive solutions that balance their needs with external constraints, restrictions and requirements in a multi‑stakeholder environment
Contribute to the design and development of technology components across Anduril, with the aim of developing components that are re‑usable across multiple Anduril product lines
Contribute to the design, implementation and execution of development processes for the initial delivery and subsequent iteration of complex robotic systems, including full lifecycle testing, monitoring and operation
Support vehicle and payload manufacturing, testing and deployment
Travel to co‑locate with end‑users, vendors, or the integration and test team up to 20% of the time
Work as a member of a multi‑disciplinary engineering team, including as a mentor for Engineers from differing backgrounds
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, a relevant field, or equivalent experience
Professional experience working as a Mechanical or Mechatronics Engineer with one or more domains and/or technologies of expertise
Capacity to work holistically on complex robotic systems across design, implementation, operation and sustainment
Capacity to act as the technical contributor for a complex subsystem, including stakeholder engagement, requirements definition, roadmap management, team co‑ordination, design, implementation, sustainment and evolution
Capacity learn and grow individually, building team cohesion and capacity
Ability to obtain and maintain a US Government Security Clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Experience with the design, implementation and support of robotic and/or autonomous systems
Experience working within the defence, maritime and/or aerospace domains
Experience with Siemens NX
Experience with finite element analysis of complex structural assemblies, including aluminium and composite structures
Experience with machining, sheet metal, injection molding, composites and/or additive manufacturing
Experience within the product delivery lifecycle including manufacturing, system acceptance, deployment, and sustainment
