- Experience leading field return / RMA processes — intake, triage, failure analysis, and disposition of returned hardware
- Experience developing repair-specific routings, work instructions, and recertification test flows distinct from new-build production
- Familiarity with sustainment engineering practices: reliability data analysis, root cause / corrective action (RCCA), and closing the loop from field failures back to design
- Experience coordinating with Field Service or customer support teams on returned assets and warranty repair programs
- Experience in maritime robotics (AUVs, UUVs, USVs, subsea sensors)
- Experience working with electrical systems up to 400VDc

Full description
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
Anduril is fielding the next generation of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) to tackle the extremely challenging industry demands of seabed exploration. Anduril has brought to the market a unique, ultra-long-range, full-ocean-depth platform, and a completely refreshed maritime vehicle and flexible manufacturing architecture that scales from "large" to "extra-large" vehicle sizes. Today, Anduril is executing on multi-million-dollar contracts while simultaneously performing Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) AUV operations.
As our Maritime team continues to quickly grow, we are looking for motivated candidates that are inspired to work within an extremely energetic, creative, and innovative team that is passionate about subsea robotics and exploring the open ocean. We work in a highly dynamic environment where collaboration and idea sharing are a way of life.
ABOUT THE JOB
We are looking for a Senior Manufacturing Engineer to own the recertification and repair operation for our Dive-LD Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) in Quonset, RI. In this role, you will be the process owner for vehicles and major assemblies returning from the field for diagnosis, repair, and recertification, as well as for scheduled refurbishment and overhaul of fielded assets. You will own the repair process from intake through recert test, partner with Design and Sustaining Engineering to close the loop on field failures, and stand up the routings, work instructions, tooling, and test flows needed to scale a depot-level operation alongside a still-maturing production line.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Own the end-to-end manufacturing process for recertification, repair, and refurbishment/overhaul of returned AUVs and major subassemblies
- Lead intake and disposition of field returns: triage incoming units, drive failure analysis with Quality and Design Engineering, and partner with the Material Review Board (MRB) to disposition non-conforming hardware quickly and traceably
- Develop and maintain repair routings, work instructions, tooling, and inspection criteria specific to the recert/repair line — distinct from new-build flows
