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.
Anduril’s Design Team is a multidisciplinary, cross-functioning collective working on brand, concept, and industrial design.
As a Motion Designer—you will help develop and deploy the kinetic visual language of the Anduril brand. You’ll be responsible for supporting the look and feel of our identity standards across motion deliverables by rapidly iterating on ideas, addressing points of feedback, and finding compelling visual solutions. Navigating condensed timelines and ‘ad hoc’ requests will challenge your ability to multi-task and to collaborate when needed. Project types will vary across company touch points including (but not limited to): standard post-production workflows (intro/outro, lower thirds, tracked elements, etc.), infographics, abstract ideas and concepts, HUD and UI elements, technical explainers, mission operations/battle scenarios, and product capability showcases. You will create systems and templates alongside our brand designers to optimize team workflows and raise the quality of future projects. Additionally, you will be expected to explore new approaches and techniques in an effort to constantly evolve and define the Anduril motion-scape.

  • Execute on projects from concept to delivery (storyboards to final product)
  • Regularly collaborate with designers, engineers, strategists, stakeholders
  • Contribute to daily design inspiration, critiques, and discussions
  • Keep up with industry standard workflows, processes, and tools
  • Develop motion standards and guidelines for Anduril Brand

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Deep understanding of design fundamentals: form, color, composition, typography
  • Technical fluency in 2D + 3D software of choice (Adobe Suite + Blender for example)
  • A reliable, organized, and resourceful team player

  • U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data
