Operations Analyst, Mission Engineering, Air Dominance & Strike, Active Clearance Full Time

ABOUT THE JOB

Anduril is at the forefront of developing defense technologies which feature layered autonomy and can be produced at scale.  To support our rapid development and deployment initiatives, our Anduril Mission Engineering Operations Analysts (AME OA) provide rigorous, data-driven analytical products to guide our business strategy, inform requirements, and investigate concepts of employment.

As an analyst, you will engage directly with internal and external stakeholders to translate their questions into physics-based analyses, often designing experiments using mission-level simulations.  You will follow the scientific method and generate clear and compelling analytical artifacts with actionable conclusions. Your analyses will often accompany demonstration events to quantify exactly how Anduril technology delivers mission success to the warfighter.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Employ the scientific method to develop model-driven analysis (and often the models themselves)
• Develop a deep understanding of the transformational value of Anduril’s platform, autonomy, simulation, and perception products
• Use our advanced internal M&S capabilities to give our analyses and asymmetric advantage over competitors
• Use exceptional writing and verbal communication to translate complex analytical findings into clear and  compelling summaries for both internal program teams and external customers

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 3+ years of experience in a relevant Science or Engineering field
