Electrical Engineer, Hardware Platform

Electrical Engineer, Hardware Platform, 5+ years of experience

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.

ABOUT THE TEAM

The Hardware Platform Organization is Anduril's central hardware engineering org. We build the shared technologies, tools, and infrastructure that power hardware development across every Anduril division, from actuators and propulsion to batteries, avionics, rocket motors, and test operations. Our teams set engineering standards, run development manufacturing and test sites, and develop core technology products that ship across multiple product lines.

ABOUT THE JOB

We are looking for Electrical Engineers to join our rapidly growing Hardware Platform organization, supporting defense hardware development across propulsion and weapons systems programs.
Propulsion: Develop and test cutting edge electronics for propulsion system. We are looking for a self-starter with deep technical experience in defense or aerospace hardware development to apply these skills in propulsion flight controllers, power electronics, high-efficiency motor controllers, and electromagnetic actuators.
ESAD: Develop fuzing circuitry for missile systems, closely collaborate with vehicle development teams to design, document, and produce tailored fuzing systems and effectors. Develop system interconnect diagrams and define wire harnesses that connect electronic equipment within the vehicle.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Lead full-cycle PCB design for high-reliability defense hardware — from requirements capture and schematic design through component selection, layout (Altium preferred), bring-up, test, debug, and system integration
• Design and optimize circuits for safety-critical aerospace and defense applications, including power electronics, motor/actuator drivers, digital control systems, fuzing circuitry, or vehicle interconnect — depending on program focus
• Conduct rigorous design analysis including worst-case analysis (WCA), thermal analysis, DFMEA, component derating, and signal/power integrity analysis to ensure reliability across extreme vibration and temperature environments
• Execute board bring-ups and lead Design Verification Testing (DVT), qualification testing, and functional testing through ground and flight test
• Develop system interconnect diagrams and define wire harnesses for integration within the vehicle
