About the Role

<div class="content-intro">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.</div><h4>ABOUT THE JOB</h4> Anduril’s Sentry team is seeking a Manufacturing Engineer with Assembly, Integration, and Testing experience of electromechanical systems to help build and scale the next generation of autonomous tower systems for force protection and surveillance. This role focuses on how Sentry’s electrical, mechanical, and software-linked subsystems — EO/IR sensors, radar, compute modules, communications, and power distribution — are mechanically and electrically integrated into a cohesive, production-ready system. The Manufacturing AIT Engineer acts as the central link between design, manufacturing, and field operations, ensuring subsystem interfaces, cabling, and structural mounting are fully aligned through the build lifecycle. You’ll develop integration workflows, tooling, and test interfaces that translate engineering intent into a repeatable, high-yield manufacturing process. This is a deeply hands-on, floor-oriented role for an engineer who thrives at the intersection of design, assembly, and systems-level problem solving. <h4>WHAT YOU’LL DO</h4> <ul> <li>Own system-level integration across Sentry’s core subsystems, ensuring mechanical, electrical, and thermal interfaces align and function as designed.</li> <li>Develop and refine manufacturing integration flows that decompose the Sentry tower into logical subassemblies and assembly sequences, enabling efficient and repeatable builds.</li> <li>Collaborate with Design, Electrical, and Systems Engineering to drive early Design-for-Integration (DFI) and Design-for-Manufacturability (DFM) feedback into new releases.</li> <li>Implement automation-minded solutions—fixtures, digital work instructions, or modular tooling—to streamline assembly and reduce operator variability.</li> <li>Lead readiness reviews and interface control checks, resolving fit, alignment, and electrical mating issues before they reach the floor.</li> <li>Translate engineering intent into clear, executable build documentation: torque specs, cabling and harness routing, alignment procedures, and inspection points.</li> <li>Maintain configuration control for large multi-level BOMs, tracking effectivity, revision, and interchangeability across evolving hardware configurations.</li> <li>Collaborate with suppliers and contract manufacturers to validate subsystem builds, ensuring interface accuracy before system-level integration.</li> <li>Drive continuous improvement in integration sequencing, ergonomics, and tooling through hands-on observation and feedback from technicians.</li> </ul> <h4>REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS</h4> <ul> <li>Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Systems, or Manufacturing Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.</li> <li>5+ years integrating complex electromechanical systems from prototype through production.</li> <li>Proven expertise in multi-subsystem integration—combining mechanical, electrical, and data interfaces into one functioning hardware product.</li> <li>Excellent cross-functional communication skills across design, manufacturing, and technician teams.</li> <li>Experience creating or optimizing integration and assembly processes for large, complex systems.</li> <li>Hands-on, floor-oriented problem solver who thrives in fast-moving environments.</li> <li>Familiarity with BOM structures, configuration management, and ECO (engineering change order) processes.</li> <li>U.S. Person status due to access to export-controlled information and facilities.</li> </ul> <h4>PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS</h4> <ul> <li>Experience assembling, integrating, and testing sensor, radar, compute, or power systems in a defense, aerospace, or robotics environment.</li> <li>Familiarity with PLM/ERP tools such as Teamcenter or Oracle.</li> <li>Demonstrated success scaling hardware from NPI (New product Introduction) to high-volume production.</li> <li>Exposure to automated assembly, digital manufacturing tools, or fixture integration.</li> <li>Background in ruggedized or field-deployable systems requiring tight mechanical, electrical, and environmental interface control.</li> </ul><div class="content-pay-transparency"><div class="pay-input"><div class="title">US Salary Range</div><div class="pay-range">$129,000—$171,000 USD</div></div></div><div class="content-conclusion">  The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only.
