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 Industrial Engineering Interns to join our summer internship program. The Manufacturing Engineering organization is responsible for rapidly iterating and building cutting-edge defense hardware, including static equipment, moving ground equipment, sensors, undersea, and flight vehicles, and scaling these products in our new 5M sq ft manufacturing facility, Arsenal-1. As an IE intern, you will work alongside a team of Industrial Engineers who will provide guidance and mentorship while you work to optimize Anduril’s manufacturing operations for best-in-class quality, reliability, speed, and asset utilization.

The Industrial Engineering Intern will take a data-driven approach to designing production lines and associated manufacturing processes to meet these objectives. In this role, you will work on a summer-long project where you will be required to actively collaborate with and prepare presentations to various Anduril teams including but not limited to Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Operations, Manufacturing Engineering, Analytics, and Quality.

WHAT YOU’LL DO
• Own and lead projects to optimize and improve systems, processes, and manufacturing operations, leveraging a data driven approach.
• Proactively identify opportunities for improvement including high variation processes, imbalances and bottlenecks…
