Supply Chain Security Counterintelligence Lead

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 Counterintelligence (CI) Team’s mission is to safeguard Anduril’s people, assets, operations, and supply chain through proactively understanding, identifying, analyzing and countering threats from insiders and external entities, specifically foreign intelligence services. The CI team helps ensure our security environment remains vigilant and resilient so that our strategic interests are preserved.
