System Security Engineer, Program Protection

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

At Anduril we are developing cutting-edge artificial intelligence systems, command and control platforms, and autonomous systems across air, land, maritime, and space domains. We are looking for Senior Systems Security Engineers to lead a mission-focused, threat-informed approach to Program Protection Engineering for the next generation of Anduril’s autonomous systems. In order to be successful at Anduril, a Senior Systems Security Engineer needs to be fluent in areas of technical leadership, requirements analysis, design rigor, customer stakeholder engagement and have a hands-on contributor mindset. This role will drive system security engineering principles into design and integration with other systems internal and external to Anduril. In short, this individual will own the execution of all security aspects of product development, production, and sustainment through the entire product lifecycle to ensure product resiliency in both export and US customer contracts.
