60 Sentry Product Development Jobs Hiring Near You

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.

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.
• Partner with engineering leads to plan, execute, and deliver design, build, and test milestones through production readiness.
• Drive design for manufacturability (DFM/DFA), supplier engagement, and hand-off to manufacturing and supply chain teams.
• Manage prototype builds, integration events, and system-level validation and reliability testing.
• Own risk management and schedule execution for hardware deliverables; escalate blockers and drive resolution.
• Work directly with production, test, and quality to ensure systems meet reliability, qualification, and sustainment requirements (MIL-STD experience preferred).
• Support field deployments and test events to gather feedback, debug issues, and identify improvement opportunities.
• Establish lightweight, repeatable processes to improve team velocity and predictability without sacrificing agility.
• Communicate status, risks, and decisions to engineering, product, and program stakeholders clearly and confidently.

• 15+ 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.
• Exceptional ability to manage cross-functional execution and communicate clearly across disciplines.
• Bias for action; thrives in a startup-like, fast-moving environment with incomplete information.
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Systems, or related Engineering field (advanced degree preferred).
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

• Background in sensor integration (EO/IR, radar, GPS, or similar).
• Prior work in defense, autonomy, or mission-critical systems.
• Familiarity with hardware-software co-development and system-level integration testing.
• Experience leading small technical teams or mentoring junior TPMs.
