Senior Manufacturing Engineer, Electrical 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 Anduril Imaging team develops state-of-the-art imaging systems across both hardware and software, deployed to tackle the most significant security challenges of America and its allies. The team is heavily involved in utilizing computer vision, perception, electro-optical, infrared, and sensor data to give our war fighters and allies an advantage. ABOUT THE JOB We are looking for a Senior Manufacturing Engineer, Electronics to join our rapidly growing team in Lexington, MA. In this role, you will be responsible for owning the manufacturing processes for our electronic and electromechanical assemblies—ensuring our designs can be built cost-effectively, tested reliably, and scaled to meet production demand. You will be the go-to person on the production floor for diagnosing and resolving complex electrical and electromechanical failures, driving root-cause analysis and corrective actions that improve First Pass Yield and reduce rework. You will also support new product introduction efforts, partner with Design Engineering, Quality, and Supply Chain, and continuously improve our value stream to keep pace with growing demand. This will require deep hands-on knowledge of electronics troubleshooting, functional test development, and DFM/DFT principles, combined with strong analytical and data-driven problem-solving skills. If you are someone who thrives in a fast-paced, resource-constrained environment, takes ownership of problems end-to-end, and finds genuine satisfaction in making hardware build processes more robust and repeatable, then this role is for you. WHAT YOU’LL DO Sustaining Production Act as the lead troubleshooter for complex electrical and electromechanical failures on the production floor, using data and structured root-cause analysis to drive corrective actions that improve First Pass Yield (FPY) and reduce rework. Manage the implementation of engineering changes on the factory floor—including alternate components and obsolescence management—ensuring seamless, validated cut-overs with minimal disruption to production. Monitor and analyze production and test data to identify trends, recurring failure modes, and process drift, proactively driving improvements before issues impact output. New Product Introduction (NPI) Participate in early design reviews, applying DFM/DFT principles to ensure electromechanical designs are optimized for assembly and testing. Develop manufacturing build and test plans, including work instructions and custom test fixtures and procedures for electronic assemblies. Support pilot builds on the production floor, working with technicians to document issues and refine the assembly and test process. Value Stream Ownership Own the manufacturing value chain for a defined set of products, encompassing both technical and commercial operations, ensuring the capability to produce at needed scale. Evaluate, plan, and prioritize long-term and short-term supply chain, production, and test optimizations to ensure capability and reliability of the value stream to meet production output goals and business objectives. Break systems down into logical subassemblies and process flows to maximize production capability, reliability (lead time and flexibility), and tota ... (truncated, view full listing at source)
