Business Operations Associate - Technical Projects
About the role
Technical Projects Operations Associates work on some of the most ambiguous, high-leverage problems at Anduril — combining operational rigor, technical curiosity, and strategic thinking to build solutions that scale. While you’ll be a member of a Functional or Division Operations team, you will often be embedded in the business (across field ops, engineering, supply chain, and product), helping Anduril run more efficiently by solving the messy, cross-functional problems that don’t fall neatly into a single team’s lane. Exemplar projects have focused on accelerating hardware development cycles, scaling our sustainment operations, and enabling customer-facing analytical workflows.
What you'll do
- Own and deliver cross-functional initiatives from zero to one, 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.
- Partner with senior leaders to bring structure, insight, and velocity to Anduril’s highest-priority operational challenges.
Required qualifications
- 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.
Paid benefits
- US Salary Range: $113,000 - $140,000 USD
- Comprehensive, competitive benefits package (available at little to no cost to employees)
- Top-tier benefits for full-time employees
