Director of MRO Transformation

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.

The duty of this organization is to enable our Customers' ongoing Mission Readiness. From the moment they say "go" until the contract is fulfilled. We are only successful when the customer's mission is successful.

Mission Readiness is the post-production shared services organization for Anduril. This team supports the Business Lines and Divisions throughout the lifecycle of their product, from initial sustainment concept through delivery, installation, operation, repair and return. These service offerings also include providing technical publications, training, customer support, connectivity services and other value-added services. To the degree the Business elects, we accept the delegated responsibility for upfront and continued delivery of the committed service solutions.

This team endeavors to provide the Business Lines, as our internal customers, shared mission services that are more efficient and cost effective than if they chose to provide them directly. By offering mission support capabilities and capacity that are not "core" to the Business, the Business can focus resources on addressing the next big need while we ensure existing commitments are met.

As Anduril's installed base grows across an increasing number of products and Business Lines, our MRO organization needs to move from a collection of program-specific repair processes and tools to a hardened, scalable operating model. This role is about leading that shift.

We are looking for a Director of MRO Transformation to lead the modernization and scaling of Anduril's repair operations. Where our Head of MRO oversees the collective repair function, this Director role owns the transformation agenda: establishing core processes for any Business Line to leverage, selecting and implementing the tools and systems MRO runs on, and driving the change management needed to get a fast-growing collection of programs onto common, scalable rails.

You will assess where today's pockets of good activity exist, build the roadmap to modernize them, and lead cross-functional teams through the change without slowing down repair turnaround for products already in the field. This is a build-the-plane-while-flying role for someone who has led operational or digital transformation in a maintenance, repair or sustainment environment before and knows how to sequence change so it sticks.

• Assess and learn current-state activity, tools, data and processes across Business Lines (field sustainment systems, spares tactics, ERP, accounting methods, maintenance task tracking) then build the plan to harmonize a scalable, common operating model.
• Project manage selection and/or design, implementation and adoption of MRO digital backbone systems including feeding the sustainment operating system. Partner with IT, Operational Excellence and Business Operations to ensure processes and digital workflows meld.
• Design and drive change management that bring Business Lines, Production, Supply Chain, and Technical…
