Anduril Industries is seeking a Technical Program Manager to own a portion of a growing portfolio of government reference architecture programs. You will serve as the single point of ownership for assigned programs, partnering with engineering, contracts, and government stakeholders to keep technical, cost, and schedule baselines aligned and commitments met.
In this role, you will blend architectural fluency with execution discipline—holding your own in open systems trade discussions while driving milestone and risk burndown with rigor.

Key responsibilities include:
- Manage and facilitate systems engineering execution across open architecture teams and adopting teams
- Drive execution across multiple efforts with accountability for tactical sprint-to-sprint outcomes
- Develop deep understanding of Anduril platforms, autonomy, simulation, and perception products through creation and maintenance of systems engineering artifacts
- Weigh in on overall strategy and specific implementations alongside Lead Systems Engineers and Chief Engineers
- Build integrated schedules and allocation plans with engineering leadership
- Manage concurrent programs and competing priorities in a fast-moving environment
- Run program reviews and technical interchange meetings with government stakeholders
