PLM Engineer - DBA/Infrastructure

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. ABOUT THE TEAM ArsenalOS is Anduril's unified production systems platform; the digital backbone for our manufacturing operations spanning PLM, MES, WMS, and supply chain systems. We're building modern, integrated solutions that enable us to scale hardware production with software velocity. In the ArsenalOS future state, users will not experience the lifecycle as disconnected silos. A design change will propagate into the bill of materials, planning systems, work instructions, quality workflows, and supplier-facing systems with minimal lag. A production issue will immediately surface to the teams responsible for design, manufacturing, supplier performance, and sustainment. Field signals will flow upstream fast enough to influence the next build of a product, not the next quarterly review. ArsenalOS will turn the Build Chain into a continuous learning system.
