Air Dominance Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Modern conflict demands a fundamentally new set of airborne capabilities. From mass-producible autonomous fighter aircraft and weapons, to the software that enables a single human operator to fight with scalable teams of robots, Anduril's Air Dominance & Strike division is pioneering a new type of capabilities that enable the U.S. and our allies to regain control of the skies, punish our adversaries on the ground, and unlock new concepts of operation that increase the survivability and effectiveness of the joint force across domains.

• Fury: A group 5 autonomous air vehicle (AAV) that combines fighter aircraft performance, trusted mission autonomy, and hyper-scale producibility to transform air dominance for the high end fight.
• Barracuda & Barracuda-M: A family of air-breathing autonomous air vehicles and cruise missiles purpose-built for hyper-scale production and mass employment.
• Roadrunner & Roadrunner-M: A twin-turbojet powered, VTOL, recoverable, autonomous air vehicle available in a high-explosive interceptor variant for ground-based air defense against a wide range of aerial threats.
• Lattice for Mission Autonomy: A software platform that enables teams of robotic systems to autonomously and dynamically collaborate to achieve mission outcomes across sea, land, and air, extending the reach, capabilities, and situational awareness of a single human operator for missions including from offensive and defensive counter air, coordinated multi-domain mass effects, air defense, and more.

As the Communications Manager for the Air Dominance & Strike Division, you will be responsible for bringing the narrative and stories around some of Anduril's most consequential and highest profile products and programs to life.
