The Role
As a Technical Business Operations Associate, you will enhance decision-making by analyzing data, managing projects across various teams, and improving operational processes at Anduril.
Summary Generated by Built In

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

As a Technical Business Operations Associate, you will own the data that informs the operational decision making at Anduril. In this role, you will partner with leadership and teams from across the business — from our Tower and Drone teams to our field operations team to our customer success team — to unpack ambiguous problems and build lasting, scalable solutions. Your work will vary from quick-turn analytical problem solving to process and data improvements and building core dashboards and tables — all in the pursuit of helping grow how Anduril operates and measures itself.

 

ABOUT THE JOB

Technical Business Operations Associates work on Anduril’s most pressing projects at the intersection of strategy, systems, and execution. Across field ops, engineering, supply chain, and product, your job is to make Anduril run more efficiently by solving the messy, cross-functional problems that don’t fall neatly into a single team’s lane.
This is not a traditional Business Operations role. You’ll be working on projects that combine technical system design with strategic thinking. These projects shape how we manage and sustain hardware in the field, drive operational tooling for production, and build data-informed frameworks that influence product design.
We’re looking for someone who could be an engineer but chose to apply that mindset to operations and strategy. You’ll need to thrive in ambiguity, move fast, and be comfortable switching between code, slide decks, meetings, and backend workflows. In this role you’ll get to build, own, and scale the operational backbone of a rapidly growing defense technology company.

 

WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Own projects end to end, from framing the problem to executing on a chosen solution.
  • Operate across both hardware and software, bringing solutions to problems across Supply Chain, Engineering, Manufacturing, Field Operations, Finance, HR, Recruiting, and more.
  • Work deeply within Anduril’s business systems (including our ERP, MRP, and MES) to develop a clear understanding of how data and processes flow across the company.
  • Develop analytics and tooling that shape decision-making, ranging from scrappy, ad hoc Excel data crunching to scalable data pipelines and dashboards.
  • Project manage across teams, leading meetings of large and small groups and managing digital communication channels to direct stakeholders towards solutions.
  • Work on the highest-priority problems at Anduril.


REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • 1–3+ years of experience in consulting, business operations, strategy, or engineering/technical roles.
  • You’re technical—you are data-driven, understand systems, and know how to communicate with engineering and product teams.
  • You’re strategic—you zoom out to define frameworks, build business cases, and integrate solutions into broader company initiatives.
  • You’re a builder—you’d rather design and implement a better solution than patch around a broken one.
  • You’re self-driven and proactive—your bias is for action rather than delay.
  • You’re comfortable in ambiguity—you get energy from untangling complex, messy problems.
  • You’re clear—you communicate effectively, including in both technical and non-technical contexts.
  • Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities.


PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Experience with technical systems in hardware + software environments (e.g., logistics tech, manufacturing systems, or ERP implementations).
  • Exposure to classified or regulated workflows.
  • Background working in cross-functional, fast-paced environments without a playbook.
