ABOUT THE JOB
We are seeking a Finance Manager to join our Corporate Finance team.

• Build the Narrative: Translate complex financial data into clear, executive-ready analysis for the CFO and C-Suite, explaining the "why" behind our performance, highlighting key trends and critical context, and framing risks, opportunities and trade-offs so leadership can act on them.
• Build for Scale: Continuously improve our financial consolidation, reporting, and forecasting infrastructure, building robust processes and models that can keep pace with Anduril's dynamic growth.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Exceptional written and oral communication skills and the ability to work seamlessly cross-functionally; collaborative by default, comfortable building trust with partners across Finance, Accounting, and the business.
• Intellectually curious - you seek to understand the why behind the numbers and dive into the operations as needed.

• Preferred to have DoD and/or Tech industry experience
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Statistics, Economics, Engineering, Business, or related field
