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. At Anduril we are building multi-domain unmanned systems that will leverage unsupervised autonomy for the delivery of integrated multi-mission capability to our customers. Dive-XL is a large-displacement AUV program designed and built in Australia, all in-house. Our Manufacturing engineering team is growing and now seeking a Manufacturing Test Engineer with an Electronic, Mechatronic or Computer Science background to join our team as a Test Systems Engineer to enable rapid testing of cutting-edge defence hardware for undersea and flight vehicles. As a Manufacturing Test Engineer, you will have responsibility for optimizing Anduril’s manufacturing test operations for best-in-class quality, reliability, speed, and asset utilization, all while meeting critical customer and internal development timelines. About the role As a Test Systems Engineer you will own the technical backbone of Manufacturing Test for Dive-XL — the frameworks, GUIs, automation, and tester integrations that the production team uses to bring up PCBAs, build bottles, check out systems, and accept vehicles at FAT. Hardware-meets-software work, on the floor, in production. Concretely, the two flagship things you'll build: The manufacturing-line console. Pre-programmed for PCBA bring-up and bottle bring-up. Technicians execute curated, version-controlled tests through a GUI. They do not author command-line. The vehicle-level test base. A pre-programmed console for vehicle Factory Acceptance Test and system check-out. Same as manufacturing-line console. Behind both: one framework, one config-managed toolchain, one OS target for test execution, and a CI/CD discipline for test code that today doesn't exist. WHAT YOU’LL DO Design and build a production utility suite of tools. From requirements through architecture, through GUI development, through deployment to the floor. These are the two consoles that the production team will live in. Test framework architecture. The shared substrate underneath both consoles — test runners, instrumentation drivers, data logging, traceability hooks, error-code library, configuration management. Toolchain standardisation. NixOS-based, declarative, reproducible. Drive the move off mixed Linux/ Windows/ Mac/ NixOS dev environments to a single config-managed target. CI/CD for test code. Test software ships through pipelines, not over USB sticks. Stand it up, maintain it, hold the line on review and version control. Integration with Anduril's factory systems: MES (work instructions, routings, defect capture), Oracle ERP, Teamcenter PLM where relevant. Test results should land in the systems where they're traced and acted on, not in spreadsheets. Technician-facing usability. GUIs that lower the entry-skill bar. Curated, version-controlled tests. Clear pass/fail. Helpful error codes that point at the actual problem, not at a stack trace. Cross-site codebase convergence with other Anduril production sites. You're part of converging the AU and US Manufacturing Test stacks — shared framework, shared XL Utility code, common error-code library. You'll work with the US team to make that real. Floor support. When a test fails and it's not clear whether it's the product, the tester, or the test code — you debug it. You're the one called when the GUI throws an unexpected error and the build's stopped. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS Engineering fundamentals. Degree in Software, Computer, Electrical, Mechatronic, or related engineering — or equivalent demonstrable experience. You can read a schematic and reason about what the test code is actually exercising. Strong software fluency for test automation. Python first, with real experience building, maintaining, and debugging test frameworks — not just scripts. You write code other people can read, change, and ship. Linux + command line as a primary environment. You live in a shell. You write Bash where it makes sense. You're comfortable with system-level configuration, process management, and network debugging — not as a special skill, just as how you work. Hardware-software interface fluency. You've written software that drives test instruments and hardware-under-test through real interfaces — USB, Ethernet, RS232/RS485, CAN, I2C, SPI, GPIB, or equivalent. Electronics troublesho
