The Maritime Manufacturing Technology Team is responsible for rapidly developing and implementing manufacturing technologies and processes for cutting-edge defense hardware including deployable static and moving surface undersea and sea to air vehicles and scaling these products in our new manufacturing facilities. Our industrialization approach combines advanced manufacturing methods digital integration and adaptive planning to compress development timelines while de-risking production decisions.

Anduril is standing up cutting edge maritime production.

You will be responsible for the overall standup and management of the production process schedule for a state of the art manufacturing facility. This role owns the integrated master schedule (IMS) and drives rate readiness through rigorous planning analysis and cross-functional coordination.

• The integrated master plan and integrated master schedule for module production horizontally and vertically integrated across engineering material manufacturing and quality.
• Critical path and network logic: find the conflicts resolve them and tell the program what just moved and why.
• Shop load and dispatch: what gets worked today against real material availability qualified labor and open nonconformances.
• Schedule adherence and earned value: measure plan against actual then feed the variance back into the plan.
• Re-baselining when the program changes with the risk analysis to support it.

• 10 years in production planning production control or master scheduling in shipbuilding aerospace or heavy manufacturing.
• Program-level planning experience: demonstrated ability to build and manage integrated schedules for complex manufacturing or defense programs.

• Critical chain / theory of constraints buffer management.
• Earned value management.
• Experience standing up a new production line or factory from greenfield.
• Background in defense manufacturing (torpedoes missiles submarines aircraft).
• Digital native: comfortable with modern tools automation and data-driven approaches.
• PMP PMI-SP or equivalent scheduling certification.
