ABOUT
THE TEAM The duty of this organization is to enable our Customers’ ongoing Mission Readiness . From the moment they say '“go” until the contract is fulfilled. We are only successful when the customer's mission is successful. Mission Readiness is the post-production shared services organization for Anduril. This team supports the Business Lines and Divisions throughout the lifecycle of their product, from initial sustainment concept through delivery, installation, operation, repair and return. These service offerings also include providing technical publications, training, customer support, connectivity services and other value-added services. To the degree the Business elects, we accept the delegated responsibility for upfront and continued delivery of the committed service solutions. This team endeavors to provide the Business Lines, as our internal customers, shared mission services that are more efficient and cost effective than if they chose to provide them directly. By offering mission support capabilities and capacity that are not “core” to the Business, the Business can focus resources on addressing the next big need while we ensure existing commitments are met.

As Head of Customer Support, you'll be leading the effort to scale and formalize Anduril's customer support operations across all business lines and products.

Implement and maintain support systems, tools, and infrastructure including incident and case management platforms, remote troubleshooting capabilities, predictive monitoring and analytics systems, and knowledge management databases. Develop and execute customer support strategies that accommodate complex geographical
requirements, varying customer SLA commitments, and diverse product technical
requirements across hardware and software systems. Establish and optimize support processes for root cause analysis, corrective action planning, escalation management, and continuous improvement to drive first-call resolution and customer satisfaction. Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineering, product, quality, program management, and field operations, to ensure seamless customer experiences and rapid issue resolution. Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics to measure support effectiveness, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency; implement data-driven improvements. Partner with Product and Engineering teams to establish feedback loops that translate customer insights and support trends into product improvements and enhanced reliability. Develop customer support playbooks, standard operating procedures, and training materials to ensure consistent, high-quality service delivery across all customer touchpoints. Influence contract terms, SLA definitions, and support scope during proposal development and contract negotiations to ensure supportability and operational feasibility. Build and manage support operations budget, including tooling investments, staffing models, and vendor partnerships to optimize cost efficiency while maintaining service excellence. Problem solve and remove obstacles for your team and internal and external partners. Know how to think critically and engage the right teams to help. Communicate effectively to keep internal and external teams informed at all times. Use the necessary channels (Slack, email, meetings) to ensure stakeholders understand customer issues, resolution status, and systemic trends. Be a team player where no task is too small. Be willing to roll up your sleeves and get the job done. Embrace the startup life. REQUIRED
