ABOUT THE TEAM Omen is Anduril’s hover-to-cruise autonomous air vehicle (AAV) that packs the endurance, payload, and mission flexibility of much larger airplanes into a novel runway-independent Group 3 platform. Omen can operate from ship decks, beaches, or remote island clearings, providing true runway independence and freedom of maneuver across defense and civilian domains. Omen is the first tail-sitter aircraft with a mass-production contract, with an order of 50 systems representing a decisive investment that anchors production and accelerates the development of future systems. ABOUT THE JOB Anduril is seeking an Integration & Test Engineer, Electrical Systems to join the Maneuver Dominance team at our Costa Mesa HQ to own integration and test of electrical systems for Omen, an advanced Group 3 VTOL tail-sitting aircraft. This individual will own integration and test activities across electrical systems including avionics, power systems, actuator and motor controls, mission systems, networking, sensors, and harnessing. This is a hands-on, build-and-run role suited to someone who wants to own a test campaign end to end: requirements, tooling, execution, and reporting. WHAT YOU’LL DO Support bring-up, functional checkout, and troubleshooting of electrical hardware across multiple vehicle systems Develop and execute right-sized test plans and procedures for electrical component and subsystem integration Coordinate with design engineers across disciplines (electrical, GNC, mission systems, flight software) to burn-down design risks and demonstrate system maturity Use standard electrical test instrumentation (multimeter, oscilloscope, logic analyzer, spectrum and network analyzer) to characterize hardware and diagnose failures Write and maintain test scripts and tooling (Python or similar) to automate data capture, sequencing, and reporting Follow and maintain safety protocols for high voltage and stored energy hazards during integration and test activities Maintain configuration control records for test hardware, tooling, and firmware/software versions Support Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), ground test, and flight test activities for prototype and production representative system REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, or related engineering discipline 1+ years of experience in integration and test, electrical hardware bring-up, or embedded systems/firmware work with hands-on hardware validation Demonstrated hands-on proficiency with multimeters, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers Working software/firmware literacy (C, Python, or similar) sufficient to read embedded code, write test scripts, and reason through firmware behavior during hardware debug Comfort working across more than one electrical domain (power electronics, controls, communications) Fluency in at least one common communication protocol (CAN, Ethernet, or Serial) Willingness and demonstrated aptitude to work safely with high voltage systems (400V+) under supervision Basic EMI/EMC fluency (conducted/radiated susceptibility or emissions) Wiring harness design, sizing, or fabrication experience Extremely organized and detail-oriented, with clear verbal and written communication skills A sincere commitment to a positive, inclusive, and collaborative culture Defense industry background not required, but genuine interest in the mission is Eligible to obtain and maintain a security clearance in United States, United Kingdom, or Australia PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS Experience with electrical system integration on aerospace or UAS platforms, particularly involving avionics, actuator controls, and power distribution in space-constrained, weight-sensitive environments. Familiarity with EMI/EMC testing and mitigation techniques in integrated vehicle environments, including conducted and radiated emissions troubleshooting on densely packaged systems. Experience automating test workflows end to end — from data acquisition and sequencing through automated report generation — using Python or similar scripting languages.
