ABOUT
THE TEAM The T&E Data Operations team builds the data infrastructure and analytical tools that power Anduril's Test & Evaluation (T&E) function & turning telemetry, test records, and incident data into consistent, automated views of how our systems are performing across the fleet. The work spans the full data pipeline: how data is created on the platform, how it's collected and egressed to the cloud, how it's modeled, and how it reaches the engineers, managers, and leaders who act on it. We're a new team within the T&E organization, and we're looking for someone willing to get their hands dirty and make high-impact, foundational changes to the way we collect, analyze, and leverage our data. ABOUT THE JOB You'll take defined workstreams end-to-end & ingestion pipelines, data models, dashboards, and the small services that tie them together & so
the team can run more of them in parallel. You'll partner closely with product-line T&E teams, software and infra teams, and corporate analytics to ship real, production-grade data products that replace and enhance the tools we rely on today. Executional autonomy is a foundational pillar of this team. You'll be expected to drive the design, the partnerships, and the delivery. We're looking to encourage you to be a collaborator that feels comfortable proposing alternative solutions and even helping give shape to how
the team executes over time.
