Senior Explosive Operations Engineer

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 is seeking a Senior Explosives Operations Engineer to join our team in McHenry, Mississippi. Our Lethality Team supports the safe development, testing, and fielding of explosive systems across multiple Anduril product lines, including Roadrunner, Bolt, Barracuda, Altius, and Copperhead. This team plays a critical role in helping Anduril deliver advanced defense capabilities by combining operational rigor, technical judgment, and uncompromising safety standards.

This is a strong fit for someone who wants to work at the intersection of hands‑on explosives operations, safety, compliance, and mission execution. Rather than sitting narrowly in a design‑only role, you will help enable explosive systems to move from development to test and field support by building safe, compliant, and executable operations in support of real products and real customer needs.

You will partner closely with engineering, manufacturing, program teams, legal, finance, business development, and other cross‑functional stakeholders to translate product and customer requirements into operational plans that support systems deployed across land, sea, and air domains. You should be excited by meaningful ownership, a broad cross‑functional scope, and the opportunity to help strengthen a growing capability inside one of the most ambitious defense technology companies in the industry.

• Plan, organize, and execute explosives operations in support of current and future Anduril products.
• Support hands‑on explosives operations across test, field, and operational environments.
• Lead and support range safety activities and contribute to the overall safety and compliance posture of explosive operations.
• Assist in developing site laydowns, blast and fragmentation considerations, quantity‑distance evaluations, and other mitigation strategies related to explosive operations.
