Responsibilities
The mechanical engineer position is responsible for the physical design of Anduril Atlanta unmanned aircraft and related hardware systems. Engineers in this role work closely and iteratively with an aircraft design to team optimize system designs to maximize performance against desired performance metrics. This work may include composite fuselage or flight surface design, internal structural components, drivetrain systems, launch systems, or payloads. The mechanical engineer is involved in all levels of product maturity; from initial concept, design, analysis, prototyping, flight testing, and manufacturing.
Own complex mechanical designs for Anduril's drone products from concept to full rate production
Gather requirements and work through trade studies to determine the best solution
Perform structural analysis to develop, assess, and optimize designs
Lead design reviews and obtain buy-in from other cross-disciplinary partners
Team
Anduril’s Tactical Recon & Strike (TRS) is a division with two missions: 1) build highly capable autonomous drones, and 2) build solid rocket motors at scale. We transform products like Ghost, Anvil, Bolt, and Altius from early concepts into fully operational capabilities by partnering closely with specialist engineering, operations, and production teams. Through our Anduril Rocket Motor Systems (RMS) team, we design and manufacture solid rocket motors using advanced materials, proprietary formulations, and high-volume production methods—delivering safe, reliable propulsion systems that support a wide range of mission requirements. TRS hires software engineers & hardware engineers, who are excited to build across a diverse and powerful portfolio—from autonomous aerial systems to high-performance solid rocket motors. Our teams contribute to highly capable autonomous robotics systems and propulsion products that operate reliably in the most demanding mission environment.
