Senior Finance Manager, FP&A

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.

Anduril’s Maneuver Dominance (MD) business delivers platforms, systems, and integrated effects in the Group 3/4/5 aviation domains. Our autonomous vehicles are the cornerstone of these capabilities, and we continually strive to push the boundaries of the possible in terms of endurance, autonomy and mission capability. The MD team develops and maintains core products and payloads, and adapts and applies those products to serve a wide variety of defense, IC and commercial customers in US and international markets.

We are seeking an exceptional Senior Finance Manager to serve as the right hand and chief of staff to the MD Head of Finance. This high-visibility, jack-of-all-trades role pairs a strong finance, accounting, and systems background with the project-management skill to drive key initiatives end to end. With business line managers owning their individual P&Ls, you will be the connective tissue that pulls their results, plans, and forecasts into a consolidated divisional view and gives senior leadership the visibility they need.

Your mandate is to build the systems, rigor, and repeatable processes that let MD Finance scale with a fast-evolving business — driving the financial systems roadmap and bringing discipline to annual and long-range planning, the monthly, quarterly, and yearly close, and the reporting packages delivered to leadership.

This is a hybrid role — roughly half chief-of-staff support to the Head of Finance, half special projects and finance transformation. The ideal candidate is versatile and growth-minded, thrives on variety and ambiguity, and sees MD's rapid scaling as a chance to build from scratch, juggle competing priorities, and grow their scope. You will be a trusted advisor to the finance leadership team, keeping priorities aligned, operations running smoothly, and key initiatives moving.

Strong communication skills and a finance or accounting background are essential; this is a polished, driven operator's role in a complex, fast-moving environment.
