About The Team
Anduril's Space team is at the forefront of advancing national security capabilities in the space domain. Our mission is twofold: 1) develop autonomous satellite systems and space-based platforms, and 2) deliver critical ground and orbital software infrastructure at scale. We transform products and capabilities across space command and control (C2), mission management, and space operations from early concepts into fully operational systems by partnering closely with specialist engineering, operations, and production teams. Through our integrated approach, we design and deploy space software systems using advanced algorithms, distributed architectures, and resilient infrastructure—delivering reliable, mission-critical capabilities that support operators across orbital and ground-based assets. Space Systems hires software engineers and systems engineers who are excited to build across a diverse and powerful portfolio—from satellite operations software to space domain awareness platforms. Our teams contribute to highly capable autonomous space systems and ground software products that operate reliably in the most demanding mission environments, supporting the DOD and IC in defending our national interests in space.
About The Job
Anduril is hiring Engineering Managers to lead software teams delivering mission outcomes in the space domain. Depending on level and fit, you'll lead a single high-performing team, a group of teams, or a broader portfolio spanning space C2, mission management, and satellite operations software. All of these roles combine hands-on technical leadership with people management, customer engagement, and program execution. We're looking for managers who can set technical direction, grow strong teams, and drive complex space programs from concept to operational delivery. More senior candidates will additionally own multi-team strategy, executive-level customer relationships, and portfolio-scale outcomes.
