Head of Technical Programme Management

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.

Within Connected Warfare, the Mission Command team builds and operates the software and hardware backbone that other Anduril business lines build on top of: the golden configurations and OS images that ship on every fielded system, and the certification and provisioning pipelines that get hardware out of the factory and into the field. This role owns the mechanics of how a build actually ships and how hardware actually scales.

Own the release process for golden configurations and OS images across Menace Management Interface (MMI) and Mission Command's fielded systems — own the calendar, the gates, and the go/no-go call for every release.

Define and enforce the qualification bar a build has to clear before it ships: test coverage, regression signoff, security/compliance checks, and rollback plan.

Build and maintain the certification pipeline that qualifies software and hardware builds for factory scaling and provisioning, working with manufacturing, test, and quality to close gaps before they hit the line.

drive down the manual steps and tribal knowledge required to ship a build.

Track release health across versions, branches, and fleet, and report status, risk, and blockers to engineering and business-line stakeholders.

Own the tooling and documentation for the release and certification process, and improve it as the fleet and product surface grow.
