Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.
Anduril's Corporate Planning team designs and operates the company's end-to-end planning system —the structure that enables every major workstream to plan and forecast with speed, accuracy, and accountability.
The team establishes the process, governance, cadence, and measurement that connect strategic goals to day-to-day execution across areas like Growth, Headcount, SG&A, etc.. Working cross-functionally, the team forms the backbone of Anduril’s corporate operating rhythm, enabling faster, clearer, and more measurable decisions across the company by connecting strategy, execution, and data.
We’re hiring Program Managers within Corporate Planning to help design, operate, and continuously improve Anduril’s planning systems. Each PM will own the orchestration of one or more planning workstreams —such as Growth, Headcount, Facilities, SG&A, etc. —partnering closely with those functions, finance, and the divisions to ensure that every workstream runs through a clear, data-backed process. These roles are foundational to Anduril’s ability to scale with discipline.
