Anduril Industries, a defense technology company, is seeking a Technical Program Manager to own program delivery across its ERP/Oracle technology team. This role is accountable for the full lifecycle of ERP initiatives, from initiation through closure, ensuring scope, schedules, and stakeholders remain aligned while moving at speed. You will turn complexity into clarity and drive outcomes independently. The ideal candidate identifies ambiguity, establishes structure, and moves initiatives forward without waiting for perfect direction. While you don't need to be an ERP developer or technical architect, you must be technically fluent enough to coordinate effectively with functional analysts, developers, integration teams, security teams, vendors, and business stakeholders. Key responsibilities include: **Program Ownership:** Own applicable ERP initiatives across the full program lifecycle—initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and control, delivery, and closure. Manage scope, schedules, milestones, dependencies, risks, issues, decisions, and action items with proactive follow-through and escalation when blockers arise. Ensure every initiative has clear objectives, an owner, requirements, acceptance criteria, documentation, and completion criteria. Manage multiple concurrent ERP initiatives with competing priorities. **Cross-Functional Partnership:** Work closely with Finance, Accounting, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain ERP teams to translate business priorities into organized, executable technical work. Coordinate across business process owners, ERP functional teams, technical development teams, integration teams, security/access teams, external vendors, and leadership. Lead working sessions, status meetings, planning sessions, and decision-making forums. Maintain proactive communication with stakeholders, ensuring they have what they need to make decisions. **Work Management and Backlog Ownership:** Maintain the ERP team's work-management system and program backlog, ensuring items have accurate priorities, owners, status, timelines, dependencies, supporting documentation, and next steps. Support backlog hygiene and prioritization, and produce status reports and executive summaries. Keep current with project documentation and ensure Jira reflects accurate project status. Interface with vendors on scheduling, deliverables, and contract alignment (non-budgetary). Anduril is moving fast to deliver software that matters. If you thrive in high-tempo environments and want your work to have real-world impact, this is the role for you. **Requirements:** - 5+ years of project or program management experience, including meaningful experience supporting ERP systems, enterprise applications, or technical business systems - Relevant experience with an enterprise ERP platform—Oracle Fusion experience preferred; experience with another large-scale platform such as SAP is also relevant - Understanding of how ERP technology supports Finance, Accounting, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain business functions - Strong written and verbal communication, including executive-level status reporting - Strong organization, facilitation, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to operate independently - Ability to identify ambiguity, establish structure, and drive decisions without waiting for perfect direction - Hands-on experience with Jira and Confluence **Preferred Qualifications:** - PMP or comparable project/program-management certification - Experience in fast-paced technology, manufacturing, aerospace, or defense environments
