As an analyst, you will engage directly with internal and external stakeholders to translate their questions into physics-based analyses, often designing experiments using mission-level simulations. You will follow the scientific method and generate clear and compelling analytical artifacts with actionable conclusions. Your analyses will often accompany demonstration events to quantify exactly how Anduril technology delivers mission success to the warfighter.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Employ the scientific method to develop model-driven analysis (and often the models themselves)
  • Develop a deep understanding of the transformational value of Anduril's platform, autonomy, simulation, and perception products
  • Use our advanced internal M&S capabilities to give our analyses and asymmetric advantage over competitors
  • Use exceptional writing and verbal communication to translate complex analytical findings into clear and compelling summaries for both internal program teams and external customers

  • Demonstrated experience in:
    • Platform MS&A - aero, fuel, and signature modeling
    • Payload MS&A - radar, EOIR, communications, or weapons payloads
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills, with the ability to convey complex technical information in written, visual and spoken form to diverse audiences
  • A working knowledge of domains such as Offensive/Defensive Counter-Air (OCA/DCA), Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Suppression/Destruction of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD/DEAD), Electronic Attack, or Long Range Fires

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • 8+ years of experience in a relevant Science or Engineering field, or equivalent advanced academic experience (e.g., MS, Ph.D.)
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Top Secret security clearance
  • Demonstrated ability to lead and execute an Operations Analysis study from concept to completion, encompassing problem definition, research, model development, data analysis, and report generation
  • Signal processing experience- for example, track fusion and filtering techniques
  • Experience with RF propagation modeling, including communications, radar, and electronic warfare (EW) modeling
