Anduril Industries is a defense technology company transforming U.S. and allied military capabilities through advanced technology. The Connected Warfare division builds systems for global command and control missions, with the Mission Command team responsible for the software and hardware backbone that powers fielded systems across the organization.
In this role, you will own the complete release and certification process for golden configurations and OS images across Anduril's fielded systems. You will establish and enforce qualification standards that builds must meet before shipping, including test coverage, regression signoff, security/compliance checks, and rollback planning. You will build and maintain the certification pipeline that qualifies software and hardware builds for factory scaling and provisioning, working closely with manufacturing, test, and quality teams to identify and close gaps before they reach production.
You will partner with engineering teams to convert ad-hoc releases into repeatable, auditable processes, systematically reducing manual steps and tribal knowledge. You will serve as the primary point of contact for factory and provisioning teams when releases or certifications block scaling, triaging issues and driving them to resolution. You will track release health across versions, branches, and the fleet, reporting status, risk, and blockers to engineering and business-line stakeholders. You will own the tooling and documentation for the release and certification process, continuously improving it as the fleet and product surface grow.
This role requires deep technical judgment under time pressure, strong cross-functional collaboration, and excellent written communication to document processes clearly enough for others to execute independently.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. security clearance
- 3+ years as a Technical Program Manager, release manager, or engineer owning software release or hardware qualification processes in an embedded, robotics, or systems environment
- Direct experience with OS image builds, golden configuration management, or fleet-wide software release processes
- Comfortable reading test/qualification data and making go/no-go calls under time pressure
- Experience working across engineering, manufacturing, and quality/test organizations
- Strong written communication skills — able to document a release process clearly enough that someone else could run it
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- Experience with hardware certification or provisioning processes in a factory/manufacturing environment
- Familiarity with embedded Linux, image-based deployment, or configuration management tooling
- Experience scaling a release process from a small fleet to high-volume production
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
