ABOUT THE TEAM

The Counter-Intrusion Business Line works on products that enable operators to protect their people and assets from threats on land and sea. We are deployed in every major global operating theater and support a diversity of mission sets across both U.S. Government and allied partners.

ABOUT THE JOB

As a Product Operations Engineer on the Counter-Intrusion product operations team, you will be the architect behind how we observe, maintain, and evolve our deployed fleet. Where others respond to incidents, you build the systems, queries, and processes that prevent them. You will design and develop uptime reporting, plan and execute software deployments to towers, create and refine monitoring solutions for both new and legacy products, and author the runbooks and SOPs that the broader team relies on daily.

You will own the operational tooling, reporting infrastructure, and deployment processes that keep our Counter-Intrusion technology healthy at scale. You should bring strong technical depth in observability and systems thinking, paired with the judgment to prioritize what to build next based on fleet data and operational patterns. If you are passionate about ground-breaking technology, contributing to the national security mission, and engineering operational excellence from the ground up, Anduril is interested in speaking with you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Design, develop, and maintain queries and dashboards for uptime reporting across the Counter-Intrusion deployed fleet, translating raw telemetry into actionable fleet health metrics
Serve as the product operations planner and executor for software changes deployed to towers, owning the end-to-end lifecycle from change validation through rollout and post-deployment verification
Work with tower software engineering to develop and tailor monitoring solutions for new tower deployments, ensuring observability is built in from day one rather than bolted on after the fact
Improve and optimize monitoring configurations for legacy products, identifying gaps in coverage and reducing alert noise to surface genuine issues
Continuously author, update, and refine runbooks, SOPs, and troubleshooting guides, ensuring operational knowledge is codified, accurate, and accessible to the team
Assess and ratchet up the quality of the fleet's observability and telemetry in partnership with product and engineering teams, driving standards for what good monitoring looks like
Analyze fleet-wide operational data to identify systemic reliability trends, proactively surfacing issues before they become incidents
Define and implement process improvements for deployment workflows, incident response procedures, and operational tooling based on data-driven insights
Develop and maintain automation to reduce manual operational overhead across the fleet

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

5+ years of experience in a technical operations or engineering role with hands-on responsibility for production systems
Prior experience in a product operations, technical support, or site reliability role supporting deployed hardware/software systems, with demonstrated progression in scope and ownership
Proficiency in developing monitoring queries, dashboards, and alerting configurations using observability platforms such as Datadog, Grafana, or similar tooling
Experience planning and executing software deployments to distributed systems, including rollout strategy, validation, and rollback procedures
Scripting and automation skills (e.g., Python, Bash) with a track record of building tooling that improves operational efficiency
Experience with software development tooling such as Git, and issue tracking tools such as Jira
Demonstrated ability to author clear, thorough technical documentation including runbooks, SOPs, and troubleshooting guides
Proven ability to work independently, identify what needs to be built, and deliver it without close direction
Excellent written, visual, and verbal communication skills
Active U.S. security clearance required

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Prior military or government agency exposure/experience
Experience building queries and dashboards in Datadog, Grafana (PromQL/LogQL), or equivalent observability platforms.
Experience with Linux system administration and command-line troubleshooting of electromechanical or networked systems
Experience supporting autonomous sensor tower systems or similar deployed C-UAS/counter-intrusion technology
Exposure to Anduril's Lattice OS or similar command-and-control software platforms
Experience operating in limited risk tolerance production environments with on-call responsibilities
Willingness to work non-standard hours and weekends when operational needs require
