Requirements
5–10+ years experience driving hardware product development and system integration in robotics, defense, aerospace, automotive, or industrial systems.
Proven track record taking electromechanical systems from prototype through production and sustainment.
Strong technical fluency in mechanical, electrical, or systems engineering domains (power systems, sensors, mechatronics, or robotics).
Deep familiarity with manufacturing processes, DFM/DFA, BOM management, and supplier readiness.
Experience with qualification, reliability, and environmental testing (e.g., MIL-STD, DO-160, automotive validation).
Hands-on mindset — comfortable on the build floor or at test events, not just in meetings.
Responsibilities
We’re seeking a hands-on, technically fluent Technical Program Manager (TPM) to lead the hardware development and maturation of our Sentry platform from concept through scaled production.
This role bridges capability, engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain—ensuring our designs evolve from prototype to field-ready products with the reliability, quality, and repeatability required for mission success. The ideal candidate has deep experience in hardware product development and system integration, thrives in ambiguous environments, and loves building systems that ship.
You’ll partner with mechanical, electrical, and robotics engineers; drive integration of sensors and electromechanical subsystems; and ensure a smooth transition from engineering to production. You’ll also serve as the primary POC between the product team and internal business lines, balancing customer urgency with disciplined execution.
This isn’t a coordination job — it’s an opportunity to build and scale real, deployable systems that protect lives and reshape defense operations. You’ll be part of a small, high-ownership team that works at the intersection of engineering execution and product impact, ensuring that cutting-edge autonomous platforms move from the lab to the field — fast, reliable, and at scale.
Lead hardware product development across core subsystems and full system integration into high-performance, mission-critical autonomous platforms.
Team
The Sentry product line is Anduril’s family of land-based situational awareness platforms — modular systems integrating power, structure, robotics, sensors, compute, and communications. These systems are deployed globally to deliver 24/7 force protection, border security, and domain awareness for our customers.
