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.
The Business Systems team is responsible for building and improving the many systems that enables Anduril to accomplish its mission. Anduril’s supply chain, accounting, sales & growth, engineering, modeling & simulation, field maintenance, manufacturing, and many more teams rely on the technology built and maintained by our team. We work across the company to ensure we have the tools and capabilities necessary for mission success.
We are seeking a highly skilled PLM Technical Solutions Architect to join our team. You will be responsible for one of our most business-critical systems, with large sections of the company relying on you to support them. You will work across a broad set of stakeholders to design, develop, and implement improvements and optimizations to our PLM while helping steer future investments in our engineering systems.

  • Agility - they change directions easily and without regret, quickly adapting to shifting business priorities
  • First Principles Thinking - they approach problems and develop solutions not based on what a vendor recommends or because it’s how they did things at their last job, but from a deep appreciation of what is best for the enterprise

  • 10+ years of experience in designing, installing, developing, implementing, and maintaining Teamcenter (including experience with version 13.0+)
