Senior Systems Security Engineer, Space

ABOUT THE TEAM

At Anduril we are developing cutting-edge artificial intelligence systems, command and control platforms, and autonomous systems across air, land, maritime, and space domains. We are looking for Senior Systems Security Engineers to lead a mission-focused, threat-informed approach to product security for the next generation of Anduril’s Space products and missions. In order to be successful at Anduril, a Senior Systems Security Engineer needs to be fluent in areas of technical leadership, requirements analysis, design rigor, customer & stakeholder engagement and have a hands-on contributor mindset. This role will drive system security engineering principles into design and integration with other systems internal and external to Anduril. In short, this individual will own the execution of all security aspects of product development, production, and sustainment through the entire product lifecycle to ensure product resiliency in cyber-contested environments.
