Electrical Engineer II, Manufacturing Test
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company dedicated to transforming U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. The company leverages AI-powered systems to build high‑performance, autonomous, and sensor‑rich military platforms. As an Electrical Engineer II in the Manufacturing organization, you will design and build complex systems and PCBA platforms for product testing, ensuring that all products meet stringent quality standards.
About The Job In this role you will develop data‑acquisition and physical‑layer interfaces using FPGA, MCU, and off‑the‑shelf equipment to support rigorous testing of our systems. You will work within a multi‑disciplinary design team, manage requirements, capture custom circuits, and design assemblies and harnesses. Collaboration with firmware engineers to enable board support packages for embedded Linux and MCU RTOS platforms will be essential. You will bring a creative problem‑solving mindset to automate testing processes, improve throughput, enhance user interfaces, and advance data analytics.
What You’ll Do
Design circuits and schematics for test automation platforms.
Integrate your designs into Anduril’s PDM systems, following the same product‑design process for component release.
Source PCB assemblies ranging from FPGA‑based data‑acquisition boards to MCU platform interfaces, breakout boards, wiring harnesses, and peripheral modules.
Architect and source circuit board test fixtures, integrating custom designs with internally developed and off‑the‑shelf data‑acquisition equipment.
Build an internal library for test circuits for data acquisition and apply DFM/DFT expertise.
Bring up, debug, and characterize low‑speed interfaces (I2C, SPI, CAN, etc.) and high‑speed signals (RF, memory, USB).
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronics, Computer Engineering, or related field.
Minimum 2+ years of relevant industry experience, with emphasis on product designs that have gone to manufacturing.
Experience with professional electronics design packages (Altium, Cadence, PADs, etc.) for schematic capture and layout.
Expertise in PCBA design, capable of fabricating your own designs or guiding contract manufacturing resources.
Familiarity with electronics test equipment (power supplies, electronic loads, oscilloscopes, function generators, spectrum analyzers, data‑acquisition sensors).
Experience with PLM systems and releasing designs for production.
Must be a U.S. person due to required access to U.S. export‑controlled information or facilities.
Preferred Qualifications
4+ years of relevant industry experience.
Experience scripting with Python for configuration and automation of setup tasks.
Familiarity with FPGA PCBA platforms, including RTL, design synthesis, and bare‑metal coding.
Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or related field.
Active Security Clearance or ability to obtain one.
Salary Range US $98,000 — $130,000 USD (inclusive of base salary only). Actual offer may vary based on experience, education, and business considerations. Equity grants are included in most full‑time offers.
Healthcare Benefits
US roles: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans at little to no cost.
UK & AUS roles: Full cost of medical insurance premiums covered.
IE roles: Annual contribution toward private health insurance.
Additional Benefits
Income protection: Life and disability insurance for all employees.
Generous time off: Competitive PTO, holiday hiatus in December, caregiver & wellness leave.
Family planning & parenting support: Coverage for fertility treatments, adoption, and gestational carriers, plus resources.
Mental health resources: 24/7 free therapy, life coaching, and work‑life services.
Professional development: Annual reimbursement for training and certification.
Commuter benefits: Company‑funded commuter benefits in applicable regions.
Relocation assistance: Available based on role eligibility.
Retirement Savings Plan
US roles: Traditional 401(k), Roth, and after‑tax (mega backdoor Roth) options.
UK and IE roles: Pension plan with employer match.
AUS roles: Superannuation plan.
