Summary Generated by Built In

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.

As an Operations Manager, you will work directly with the Chief of Staff, Software Platform to build and run business operations across our Software Platform organization (SWP). SWP owns and develops Anduril’s Lattice platform, which is deployed to all Anduril customers. Lattice is the technology backbone for Anduril becoming the next generation defense prime. In this role, you will partner with leadership and teams from across the organization and company — spanning our business lines and divisions to our Finance and G&A teams to our core internal operations teams — to unpack ambiguous problems and build lasting, scalable solutions. Your work will vary from quick-turn operational fire-fighting, building and redesigning processes, to leading high-impact and specialized projects — to enable and provide operational leverage to the organization that underpins and differentiates Anduril as the next generation defense prime.
WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Own operational projects end-to-end, from definition, solution, to implementation. You will be handed ambiguous problems with little prescription on how to solve them, delivering operational leverage, actionable insights, and real outcomes for our software engineering leaders and teams.
  • Project manage across many stakeholders. If you don’t like being the person leading meetings with large groups of people or managing large comms channels to wrangle stakeholders towards a solution, this is not the role for you.
  • Execute analyses on short-timelines to get answers quickly, while also owning more scalable solutions that will make Software Platform successful in the long term
  • Work across functions and learn Anduril’s business top-to-bottom. You will interact with Anduril’s divisions and business lines, Manufacturing, Finance, Engineering, HR, Recruiting, Growth, and more. The Operations Team is one of the most cross-functional teams at Anduril.
  • Establish structures and processes that enable the SWP org to better scale our people, technology and impact, and operate more effectively and efficiently.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • You have 3+ years of experience in management consulting, internal operations, or business operations role. Bonus points for time spent working at a technology company.
  • You have excellent judgment and composure in high-pressure situations.
  • You get energy from being a thought partner for others and it excites you to spend time translating problems into proposed solutions, and to then going and executing on them.
  • You are self-driven and relentlessly proactive. You don’t need someone to tell you to “move”. You just move. We’d rather have to tell you to slow down than to speed up. You don’t wait on others to solve problems, leading with data and iterating thoughtfully and consistently.
  • You enjoy working at a place where no one minds if you leave early one day to go to an appointment or run an errand, but you also don’t mind responding to Slacks in the evening while you’re watching Netflix.
  • You are comfortable communicating broadly and having a lot of eyes on your work. This role can at-times require comms to large groups and senior leadership. This should excite you.
  • Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance
