WHAT YOU’LL DO This role will own the end-to-end test coordination process across all of our programs and multiple test sites. In doing so, this role will interact heavily with various internal stakeholders, such as hardware product managers, program managers, test engineers, EH&S, and facilities operations, as well as external stakeholders such as test range project managers, air space coordinators, frequency coordinators, site directors, and military groups. This role frequently manages several test events in parallel, across different sites, programs, and stakeholder groups — strong organizational judgment and the ability to triage competing priorities are essential to keeping every event on track. Establish and manage an in-take process for test event requirements. Test events come in all sizes and levels of complexity: short daily exercises with light on-the-ground support required to large multi-week training exercises involving multiple support and engineering teams. This role will work with stakeholders to schedule test events and ensure that resources, equipment, documentation, and communications are all being handled effectively to guarantee a successful test event. Maintain and communicate a comprehensive schedule of test events across all of Anduril’s internal and external test ranges. Support the internal test range website pages where in-take process, range capabilities overviews, safety protocols, personnel policies, operations manuals, and additional documentation is maintained. Support the T&E Manager in test evaluation and approval processes, documentation, communication with internal and external test range personnel, analysis, process and change management, and resource allocation. Maintain roster of test range relationships, both internal and external, so that Anduril has a broad reach and capability for testing. Travel: 25-50% between internal test ranges (like California, Texas, Oregon) and external partners (like Arizona, New Mexico, & Florida). REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS The ideal candidate must be detail-oriented with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Priorities can shift quickly throughout the day, and the ability to adapt, reprioritize, and pivot with minimal disruption is essential. Proven ability to juggle multiple concurrent test events and shifting priorities without dropping details — this role routinely runs several events across different sites and teams at the same time. Strong, proactive communicator who can keep multiple internal and external stakeholders (engineers, program managers, site directors, safety/compliance) aligned in real time, not just when asked. Demonstrated self-starter — comfortable identifying gaps, driving resolution, and taking ownership of a problem without waiting for direction. Sharp, quick learner who can pick up new tools, processes, and site-specific requirements fast.
