Senior Product Manager, Manufacturing and Industrial Design Systems

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. ABOUT THE TEAM: The Business Systems team is responsible for building and optimizing the many systems and internal technologies that enables Anduril to accomplish its mission. Anduril’s supply chain, accounting, sales growth, field maintenance, manufacturing, and many more teams rely on the technology built and maintained by us. We call this system-of-systems “ArsenalOS”. Within ArsenalOS lies a suite of digital software solutions aimed at solving the problems for our manufacturing, supply chain, and planning departments, which we call ProductionOS (ProdOS for short). ABOUT THE TEAM: To move at the speed of software, our manufacturing systems must be equally agile. The Senior Product Manager, Manufacturing and Industrial Design Systems owns the digital backbone that enables our manufacturing and industrial engineers to plan, simulate, and validate production before the first part is built. They are responsible for all the workflows and processes that ProdOS covers that occur prior to the actual assembling of our products. In this role, you’ll define and deliver the systems that power virtual builds, process simulations, model-based definition, factory layout, and design-for-manufacturing — transforming slow, manual workflows into a cohesive digital thread. You must be able zoom down into helping manufacturing engineers optimize work instructions to avoid collisions and zoom up to help industrial engineers simulate factory layouts and everything in between. Every second we save in manufacturing and industrial design makes us faster at getting critical technology into the hands of the warfighter. Your work ensures that Anduril’s products can move from design to production with speed, precision, and confidence — so that when we need to scale, the factory is ready on day one. WHAT YOU"LL DO: Design and implement a connected pre-operations software ecosystem spanning PLM, work instructions, process/plant planning, simulation, and MES integration. Digitize the workflows that let manufacturing and industrial engineers perform virtual builds, simulations, process validation, and DFM analysis efficiently and consistently. Enable Model-based data continuity — ensuring PMI, GDT, and design intent flow cleanly from CAD through process planning to execution. Deploy Configurable integrations between tools like our CAD, PLM, and MES platforms to create a seamless digital thread with support from ProdOS engineers Enable automation and AI with the digital thread established by ProdOS engineers. Drive adoption of new tools that allow engineers to 10X their work. Develop metrics and feedback loops that measure engineering throughput, time spent on each process, simulation coverage, and build readiness. Drive user adoption and change management for new pre-ops digital capabilities, enabling engineers to focus on solving physical problems — not fighting software. REQUIRED CHARACTERISTICS: Systems thinker — understands how digital tools, data models, and process flows connect across the hardware product lifecycle. Deep empathy for engineers — knows how manufacturing, process, and industrial engineers work, and what they need to go faster.
