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 JOBAnduril is seeking an energetic, execution-focused Deputy Director to help lead and scale our Connected Warfare Division in Europe. This is a highly active, hands-on leadership role reporting directly to the Head of International, Connected Warfare. You will serve as the core operational partner, driving day-to-day programmatics, tactical program execution, and regional capability delivery across the European continent. Rather than managing from a high-level corporate desk, you will bring "tactical energy" to our operations, actively unblocking bottlenecks, coordinating cross-functional teams, and executing on-contract growth. You will translate our next-generation software-defined C2 architecture (Lattice OS) into deployable realities for our European defense partners. WHAT YOU'LL DO Operational Execution & Delivery: Oversee the day-to-day delivered programmatics of our European portfolio. Directly partner with project leads to resolve supply, technical, and schedule bottlenecks, acting as a force multiplier for the team. Hands-on Capture & Growth: Drive on-contract growth and lead bid/proposal efforts. Translate complex technical capabilities into clear, low-risk, mission-aligned proposals for military users. P&L & Resource Coordination: Own divisional cost planning, resource management, and budgeting at the operational level. Optimize margin contributions and align staffing to support rapid capability deployments. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Foster a highly accountable, fast-paced environment by bridging the gap between our internal software/hardware engineers and senior military stakeholders. CRM Discipline: Utilize CRM tools (Salesforce) to actively forecast order bookings, track customer interaction history, and ensure pipeline data integrity. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS 8+ years of operational program management, systems engineering, or technical delivery experience, preferably within fast-paced defense-tech, aerospace, or advanced technology sectors. Proven track record of personally driving the execution of complex hardware-software integration programs or multi-domain C2 projects. Demonstrated experience managing operational budgets, cost planning, and P&L metrics for technical projects or business units. Exceptional "tactical energy"—a builder's mindset with a willingness to roll up your sleeves, solve operational crises, and handle day-to-day project details. Deep familiarity with European defense procurement, Ministry of Defense (MoD) structures, and allied operational requirements. Must be an EU Country Passport Holder and eligible to obtain and maintain a NATO Secret security clearance. Willingness to travel extensively across Europe (up to 75%) to engage face-to-face with customers and technical teams. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS Background in operational military roles (e.g., Tactical Communications, Joint Fires, C2/C4ISR) or as a defense-tech startup program manager. Direct experience moving traditional hardware-centric programs toward open-system, software-defined architectures or agile deployment models. Experience utilizing Salesforce or similar CRM tools in a dynamic forecasting and operations capacity.
