Senior Mechanical Engineer, Maritime

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 Maritime Division has assembled a diverse team of experts in software, robotics, artificial intelligence, sensor fusion, and data analysis to create software and hardware solutions that radically evolve the capabilities of our customers. We are fielding the next generation of autonomous systems to tackle the extremely challenging industry demands of maritime operations. Anduril has brought to market a unique, ultra-long-range, full-ocean-depth underwater vessel platform and a completely refreshed maritime vehicle and flexible manufacturing architecture that scales from "small" to "extra-large" vehicle sizes.

Today, Anduril is executing on billion-dollar contracts while simultaneously performing Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) AUV operations.

The next Mechanical Engineer on our Undersea Reconnaissance & Strike team will join a small, high-output mechanical engineering group supporting multiple vehicle variants through rapid prototyping and into rate production.

• Support the full product lifecycle from early prototype through rate production - you'll be involved from system requirements and initial design iterations through manufacturing and delivery, not just one phase
• Drive DFM into every decision - developing low-cost, producible designs that can scale from prototype quantities to rate production
• Navigate a dynamic solutions trade space that incorporates external constraints, evolving requirements, timeline considerations, and quality in a multi-stakeholder environment
• Contribute as a member of a multi-disciplinary integrated product team, providing a new perspective to teammates of various backgrounds and experiences
• Critically assess mechanical solutions for their value to the end user, cost and ease to manufacture, time to deliver, reliability, reusability across various product lines, and iterability
• Make practical engineering trade-offs - we value judgment and momentum over analysis paralysis
• Interact with end-users to deeply understand their needs and incorporate feedback into your technical solutions
• Support integration and test activities

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, a relevant field, or equivalent experience
• 7+ years of professional experience working as a Mechanical or Mechatronics Engineer
• Demonstrated experience taking a design from concept through multiple iterations into a manufactured product - not just analysis, but actually building and shipping hardware
• Capacity to work holistically on complex electromechanical systems across design, implementation, operation and sustainment
• Capacity learn and grow individually, building team cohesion and capacity
• Comfort working through ambiguity - priorities shift, vehicle variants evolve, and you'll need to find your own rhythm in a fast-moving environment
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. security clearance

• Experience in subsea, maritime, or autonomous underwater vehicle development
• Experience in…
