ABOUT THE JOB
At Anduril, we are developing unmanned systems for subsurface, surface, land, and air domains that will leverage unsupervised autonomy for the delivery of multi-mission capability to our customers. These projects require **Advanced Capabilities Analysts **with deep levels of relevant domain experience to provide direction to the talented software and hardware engineers. We are looking for our next Advanced Capabilties Analysts to join our rapidly growing team in Quincy, MA. The Advanced Capabilities Analyst interfaces with external and internal stakeholders to identify needs, then deliver rigorous math and physics-based analytical products which will be used to guide product development and complement our demonstration events, leaving no doubt that Anduril builds systems that offer real and proximate military capability. Additionally, the Advanced Capabilities Analyst will engage with Software Engineers building the supporting mission system software to ensure that predicted customer needs are integrated into all facets of the platform.
