Senior Systems Security Engineer, Space

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 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.

• Integrate holistic Systems Security Engineering processes to prevent, mitigate, and recover from cyberattacks that employ advanced adversary Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs)
• Champion system security architecture development and requirements derivation, decomposition, and flow down for Anduril products with varying levels of system design maturity
• Design system and solution features with engineering teams to meet and exceed industry‑standard security goals
• Consult on software, RF and electrical engineering architectures, features, and implementations.
• Identify and prioritize mission‑based cyber risks, translating complex threat landscapes into actionable engineering decisions
• Develop, document, orchestrate, and execute system security tests, demonstrations, evaluations, and assessments (including support for customer‑led events)
• Develop, guide, and monitor technical documentation to capture trade studies, system designs, analyses, and results related to a system's security posture
• Support technical work products developed by the larger engineering team and support major milestone deliveries (e.g. SRR, SVR, PDR, CDR, TRR, PRR).

• Experience in one or more of the following fields:
