About the Role

Anduril’s Demand & Supply Planning team is seeking an exceptional Material Planner to drive material availability for cutting-edge defense hardware—spanning static sensor platforms, mobile ground equipment, and flight vehicles.
In this role, you will hold end-to-end material flow ownership across the value chain, from raw components through to finished goods. You won’t just manage tickets; you will own specific product lines and assemblies, serving as the critical link that dictates to Purchasing and Manufacturing exactly what to build/buy, how many and when.

• Consumables & Floor Stock Strategy: Design and manage replenishment strategies (e.g., Kanban, Min/Max) for production consumables, fasteners, and floor stock to ensure uninterrupted assembly.
• Cross-Functional Execution: Collaborate daily across Production, Quality, Logistics and Sourcing to reallocate materials, resolve Non-Conforming Materi
