About the Role

As a Lead Materials Coordinator, you will join our Deployment Operations team supporting one of Anduril's Test Sites. Test Sites are where our products meet the real world: dynamic, resource-constrained environments where rapid iteration, range operations, and customer demonstrations all happen. You will work with smaller teams and a broader scope than production warehouses, which means the work is hands-on and the impact is immediate. The ideal candidate is an adaptable, proactive problem-solver who manages inventory and material operations under strict quality standards.

Responsibilities

  • Process shipping, receiving, and inventory management at the Fort Stockton, TX test site
  • Coordinate and prepare inbound, outbound, and round-trip shipments moving between the test site, Anduril production facilities, and customer locations, including packaging, crating, labeling, and shipping documentation
  • Create and track shipment tickets in Jira, and coordinate delivery and pickup windows with carriers, drivers, and site security
  • Distribute received material to the correct team, lab, or individual on site, and track empty cases and non-inventory items back to their point of origin
  • Maintain inventory by identifying, labeling, and organizing materials and supplies, including bin locations and storage areas, and maintaining physical and digital records
  • Monitor inventory levels to identify anticipated material shortages and restock points, and raise them to site and Deployment Operations leadership
  • Pull, kit, pack, crate, label, and stage materials for test events, builds, and outbound shipments, ensuring product is properly secured and documented
  • Execute receiving, issuing, transfer order, and cycle-count transactions in Oracle and Odoo, including project striping and de-striping, and troubleshoot transfer order validation errors so material can move on schedule
  • Reconcile inventory records between systems when the physical count, Odoo, and Oracle disagree, escalating to Deployment Operations when a discrepancy cannot be resolved on site
  • Operate forklifts, pallet jacks, and other machinery to move items, or signal machine operators to move materials onto and off trucks and loading docks
  • Transport material between the test site and nearby Anduril or partner locations as needed
  • Expedite flow of material, parts, and assemblies within the site and between Anduril locations in accordance with test and operational schedules

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years as a materials coordinator, warehouse associate, or equivalent role
  • 2+ years of experience leading a team, training and mentoring employees for development
  • Knowledge of standard inventory management practices
  • Familiarity with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and/or other warehouse management and inventory control tooling
  • Ability to work proficiently and stay organized across multiple connected systems (ERP, Jira, Slack)
  • Ability to lift and move material, operate material handling equipment, and work on your feet in an active test environment
  • Ability to work onsite at the Test Site five days per week with occasional after-hours or weekend surge support as test and operational schedules dictate
  • Ability to travel to Anduril Headquarters in Costa Mesa, CA and other Anduril sites on occasion, no more than 20% travel
  • Valid driver’s license
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret or Top Secret security clearance

Preferred Qualifications

  • 3+ years of forklift experience and license
  • Experience supporting field operations, test ranges, or remote / austere sites
  • Experience working in the defense/aerospace industry
  • Proficient with spreadsheets for inventory reconciliation, reporting, and ad-hoc analysis
  • Familiarity with inventory management through lot, serial, or batch tracking
  • Experience packaging and handling hazardous shipments
  • Able to operate independently and prioritize tasks effectively in fast-paced environments
  • Comfortable working directly with engineers and technicians in an active test environment
  • Excellent customer service skills
  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. clearance
