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 AD&S Deputy Program Manager, you will lead the development and integration of Anduril products and technologies with various government and industry partners. These projects will be diverse in nature and require you to be organized and flexible to adapt to changing situations. On one project, you may be working with the customer to clarify how each of its mission requirements can be met through Anduril's core products, including the plan, scope, and work required. In another situation, you may be helping to craft a vision with the customer or participating in technical working groups with a collaborative set of engineers to transform that vision into an operational reality. During all this, you must be able to successfully work with both external and internal stakeholders, communicate plans clearly to all parties, and support and coordinate across teams to achieve the desired end state.

Success in this position also hinges on two key facets : 1) systems and engineering mindset- the ability to understand and assess technical concepts- identifying system dependencies, interfaces, technical risks and the impact of key architectural decisions with the engineering team is a must; and 2) an execution mindset- digging into the details, charting the path and owning the outcome. You will be expected to utilize your technical aptitude in conjunction with your program and project management skills to deliver the best outcome for Anduril and the customer.

We are seeking an experienced Deputy Program Manager (DPM) with prior experience in program execution to plan, direct, and lead internal and external program activities. The DPM will support day-to-day coordination and execution of program initiatives and tasks - working alongside the Program Manager to meet the program's administrative, technical, and operational requirements.

What You'll Do

• Serve in a customer-facing Deputy Program Manager capacity, working directly with the Department of Defense to develop and deploy Anduril Mission Autonomy software to meet operational needs. The DPM will own the completion of contract deliverables, create user engagement roadmaps, and drive program delivery.
• Engage directly with users to design user feedback loops for gathering, triaging, and prioritizing requirements, feedback, issues, and challenges to improve Anduril simulation & autonomy software prior to deployment to Government sites and operational users.
• Provide input to program and engineering teams to drive the development of product features and configurations that enhance or greatly improve efficiency of user workflows and employment of Anduril autonomy products.
• Support engagement with other Department of Defense organizations relevant to simulation and autonomy software to support development and increased software system adoption.
• Develop and contribute to a streamlined user feedback and engagement system, which includes issue tracking, training sessions, refreshers, and focused preparation for events.
