Senior Technical Program Manager (Sentry Maneuver Systems)

• We’re seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to lead development of Anduril’s Sentry Maneuver Systems platform
• This role is responsible for driving execution across the complete hardware development lifecycle—from early concept development through engineering integration, prototype builds, qualification, manufacturing readiness, production, and operational deployment
• Primary ownership will focus on the Mobile Sentry platform while supporting development of adjacent maneuver capabilities, including new vehicle integrations, chassis development, and lower-cost or dismounted system variants as the product family evolves
• As a Senior TPM, you’ll provide technical program leadership across multiple engineering organizations while partnering closely with Product Management, Platform Architecture, Chief Engineers, and stakeholders across Counter-Intrusion, Air Defense, Maritime, and other business lines to ensure shared platform capabilities evolve to meet diverse mission requirements
• Success in this role requires balancing the priorities of multiple products, engineering teams, and customers while driving common architectures, reusable hardware solutions, and delivery of mission-ready autonomous systems
• Lead technical execution for the Mobile Sentry platform and related Sentry Maneuver Systems initiatives
• Drive hardware development from concept through prototype, system integration, validation, production readiness, manufacturing, and deployment
• Partner closely with Product Managers, the Lead Platform Architect, and Chief Engineers to align platform architecture, technical execution, and product roadmaps
• Collaborate with Counter-Intrusion, Air Defense, Maritime, and other business line stakeholders to develop shared platform capabilities that address evolving mission requirements
• Coordinate execution across Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Embedded Software, Autonomy, Systems Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Reliability, Test, Quality, Product Management, and Platform Architecture teams
• Establish integrated development plans, technical milestones, and execution strategies across multiple concurrent development efforts
• Lead complex system integration activities spanning vehicle platforms, chassis, sensors, communications, compute, power systems, autonomy hardware, and mission payloads
• Drive engineering readiness through design reviews, prototype builds, qualification testing, manufacturing readiness, and production ramp
• Identify technical and programmatic risks early, develop mitigation strategies, and drive alignment across engineering and leadership teams
• Partner with manufacturing and suppliers to mature products for scalable production and long-term sustainment
• Identify opportunities to standardize and reuse hardware platforms, subsystems, and technologies across multiple products and business lines
• Communicate program health, technical decisions, risks, tradeoffs, and key milestones to engineering and executive leadership
