## About the role

As a Staff Manufacturing Engineer, you will drive the enterprise-wide manufacturing strategy for Barracuda at Arsenal-1 and architect how Anduril builds autonomous air vehicles at hyper-scale. You'll lead the end-to-end technology transfer from HQ, design the production systems and line architecture for high-rate output, and establish the manufacturing process frameworks — RCCA systems, MES strategy, yield management programs, takt time structures, and scaling playbooks — that become organizational standards. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

- 12+ years in manufacturing of electromechanical hardware, with progressive leadership of complex production programs and scaling operations
- Degree in an engineering or technical field preferred, or equivalent depth of hands-on manufacturing experience
- Deep, demonstrated expertise in complex electromechanical integration at production scale — you've built it, optimized it, and scaled it
- Track record of standing up or transforming production lines: technology transfer, line design, process architecture, and ramp to rate
- Mastery of the manufacturing process ecosystem: work instructions, MBOMs, RCCA, line optimization, takt time management, yield programs, MES strategy, and scaling operations
- Experience leading transformational manufacturing initiatives with enterprise-wide impact and multi-million dollar scope
