Anduril’s Air Dominance & Strike (AD&S) Finance team is seeking an FP&A Manager to help lead division‑level planning, forecasting, budgeting, and performance reporting.

In this role, you will own the consolidated AD&S view of performance and drive the operating rhythm – monthly and quarterly reporting, variance analysis, and executive readouts – so leadership has clear visibility to drivers, risks, and actions across the portfolio.

AD&S is scaling quickly across multiple product and program fronts, and leadership needs a single, consistent view of performance and outlook. This role exists to build and run the division’s FP&A operating cadence – consolidating inputs across business lines, translating results into decision‑ready insights, and shaping the annual operating plan so resources stay aligned to the highest‑impact priorities.
