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.</p></div><p> </p> <h4>ABOUT THE TEAM</h4> <p>The <a href="https://www.anduril.com/barracuda">Barracuda</a> Manufacturing Team is responsible for rapidly iterating and building cutting-edge defense hardware for the Warfighter. This responsibility includes everything in the manufacturing value-chain, including, but not limited to, Design for Manufacturability work, tool design & selection, process creation & optimization, vendor sourcing & interaction, quality planning, and work documentation associated with the hardware that the Manufacturing Engineer owns.</p> <h4>ABOUT THE JOB</h4> <p>As a Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer you will be responsible for ensuring that we are testing our systems to stringent standards ensuring that we are consistently shipping the highest quality products to our customers. Additionally you will ensure that we are able to meet the required throughput requirements of production. In this role you’ll need to think creatively and come up with solutions to solve difficult testing problems and push to continuously improve our methods of automation, throughput, user interfaces, and data analytics. <br>To ensure we are testing our systems sufficiently and efficiently you will define what needs to be tested by deriving test requirements, authoring the test plan, and then developing the tester itself. You will be expected to own building new test stations from the ground up starting with electrical/software/mechanical system design and proceeding through hardware development, validation, and system sustainment on the production line. <br>The team spans multiple disciplines so development work can be shared, but every Manufacturing Test Engineer is expected to own a test capability end to end and to be hands-on in at least one of those core build disciplines.<br><br></p> <h4>WHAT YOU'LL DO</h4> <ul> <li>Maintain ownership of test activities in production and ensuring production test flow. Provide hands-on troubleshooting efforts and resolve complex electrical issues found during testing</li> <li>Own the full test lifecycle for assigned products, from early test planning through tester development, deployment, validation, and long-term sustainment on the line</li> <li>Define what needs to be tested by deriving test requirements from system design, and collaborating with design engineers to refine test requirements</li> <li>Develop new test stations from the ground up including hands-on ownership of at least one core build discipline: test software, test electrical/instrumentation, or mechanical/fixture design, and integrate them into the production line</li> <li>Author test plans, build/test sequences, and acceptance criteria for new and early-stage products, then carry them through to a released, sustainable production process</li> <li>Maintain test capabilities across the manufacturing value stream - from system level checkouts and acceptance testing to key component level in process validation</li> <li>Improve and sustain existing te
