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.\nABOUT THE JOB\nAnduril Expeditionary Systems (AES) is building AI Factories and Command/Control centers-specialized, high-performance computing centers designed to process petabyte-scale data and convert it into decisions at machine speed from forward operating bases. These are not traditional data centers. They are air-transportable, power-constrained, hardened systems optimized for AI inference at the tactical edge and deeply integrated with Lattice.\nWe are seeking highly experienced Lead Electrical Architects to play a pivotal role in defining and shaping the electrical architecture for our product lines. These roles will bridge the critical gap between high-level systems concepts and detailed electrical design, ensuring robust, scalable, and manufacturable solutions for our advanced defense systems. You will be instrumental in translating strategic Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) into actionable electrical requirements and architecture that will guide the entire product development lifecycle.\nExact candidate title and leveling to be determined based upon technical acumen, professional experience, leadership ability, and assessed capabilities through the interview process.\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\nOwn the end-to-end architecture of AI Factory tactical data centers and deployable command and control centers\nConduct architectural trades, balancing performance, manufacturing feasibility, and future scalability.\nBridge the gap between traditional Systems Engineering and Electrical Engineering by translating high-level CONOPS into detailed electrical requirements, architectures and functional modules.\nDesign air-transportable, modular systems (containerized, palletized, vehicle-mounted) that are rapidly deployable and operationally credible\nBuild infrastructure optimized for austere and contested environments-extreme temperatures, limited grid power, SCIF-accreditable, electromagnetic hardening\nWork in tight coupling with Lattice and AI/ML teams to ensure physical infrastructure meets mission-critical software requirements\nPartner with defense customers to translate operational requirements and needs into technical architectures\nLead prototyping, field testing, and operational validation through military exercises and real-world deployments\nDrive systems from concept through production at scale, working across hardware, software, supply chain, and program teams\nAllocate functions to specific electrical modules and subsystems, defining constraints, interfaces, and communications protocols.\nFlow module and subsystem information to PCB design and harnessing teams to guide designs in line with the overarching electrical architecture.\nREQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS\nBachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field\n5+ years of engineering experience designing and deploying electrical products\nProven ability to think strategically and define the long-term architectural vision for a product line\nFamiliarity with embedded systems hardware, including MCUs, CPUs, and FPGAs, and their architectural implications\nExperience with full-cycle ECU/LRU electronics design, including PCBA design through the entire lifecycle\nExperience with harnessing design and connector selection\nSuccessful track record of releasing products to production and delivering to end-users at scale\nExcellent communication, collaboration, and influencing skills to work across diverse engineering disciplines.\nExperience leading cross functional teams on complex electronics projects\nU.S. Person status required (U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee)\nAbility to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance (U.S. citizenship may be required)\nMust be able to travel up to 15% of the time\nDESIRED QUALIFICATIONS\nBackground in 3-phase power distribution, MV/LV grid scale power distribution, or EV/HV battery systems\nHas been through at least three full electrical product design cycles from conception to production release\n8+ years of engineering experience designing and deploying electrical products\nExperience with tactical military systems, ruggedized computing, or deployable infrastructure in austere or contested environments\nKnowledge of military environmental standards (MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461) and expeditionary deployability requirements\nHands-on experience with containerized or modular data center designs (ISO containers, mobile facilities)\nExperience with expeditionary or forward operating base (FOB) infrastructure\nKnowledge of electromagnetic hardening and operation in GPS-denied or communications-contested environments\nExperience with SCIF design or accreditation for classified environments\nBackground in aerospace, defense, autonomous vehicles, EVs, or safety-critical industries with rigorous qualification requirements\nAdvanced degree (MS/PhD) in relevant engineering discipline\nHolds Active Secret Clearance or higher\nUS Salary Range\n$146,000—$183,000 USD\nThe salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary offer may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations.
