ABOUT THE TEAM:

Advanced Infrared Solutions (AIRS), formerly American Infrared Solutions, was acquired by Anduril Industries in 2025 and now operates as part of the Imaging Business Line. For more than 10 years, AIRS has designed and built world-class, high-performance cooled infrared cameras and subsystems, including critical components such as Integrated Dewar Cooler Assemblies (IDCAs). From its site in Hudson, NH, AIRS is expanding to supply these critical components both internally, to Anduril's Imaging products, and externally, to serve as a merchant supplier to the broader defense, space, and commercial industrial base. Growing the external merchant supplier business alongside internal production is a core strategic priority for the Business Line.

WHAT YOU'LL DO: 
As a Process Technician, you will be responsible for the meticulous operation and maintenance of our specialized vacuum and cryogenic systems, ensuring the quality and efficiency of our IDCA production.
  • Execute Vacuum & Cryogenic Processing: Meticulously load dewars onto vacuum pumps, perform precise LN2 boil-off procedures, track pump cycle progress, and conduct daily gas collection and evaluation.
  • Monitor & Troubleshoot Systems: Utilize Residual Gas Analyzer (RGA) instrumentation to monitor pump cycles, proactively screening for irregularities and performing effective debugging to ensure process integrity.
  • Maintain Equipment & Cleanroom: Conduct regular maintenance on vacuum pump systems, perform dewar leak checks, and ensure the cleanliness, organization, and proper stocking of materials, including LN2, within the lab and cleanroom environments.
  • Document Processes & Data: Accurately create and maintain IDCA documentation, including travelers and detailed data entry, adhering strictly to established procedures.
Qualifications: 
  • Associate's degree in a technical field or equivalent practical experience, with 5-10 years of hands-on experience in a similar manufacturing or process environment.
  • Demonstrated expertise in operating and troubleshooting high vacuum systems, leak checkers, and Residual Gas Analyzers (RGAs).
  • Excellent fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination for precision work, proficiency in using hand tools and various mechanical/electrical measurement equipment, and the ability to read mechanical assembly drawings and rudimentary schematics.
  • Strong adherence to established procedures, keen attention to detail, and proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel). Experience in the infrared technical area is a significant plus.
  • Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities
