ABOUT THE TEAM

The Lethality team designs, builds, tests, and fields mechanical warhead and ordnance systems that integrate directly with Anduril platforms.

Our engineers work across mechanical design, manufacturing, analysis, testing, safety, and vehicle integration to move new concepts from an idea to tested hardware quickly. The team is highly hands-on and built for engineers who want to design new products, solve difficult problems, and see their decisions become real hardware.

ABOUT THE JOB

The Lethality Team is looking for a Mechanical Engineer to help develop the next generation of warhead and ordnance systems.

You will design new mechanical hardware, work directly with the people building it, test your designs, and use the results to make the next iteration better.

Yes, you may actually get paid to blow things up.

You do not need to arrive as a warhead expert. We are looking for strong mechanical engineers with practical design experience, sound engineering judgment, curiosity, and the ability to learn a highly specialized domain quickly.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Design new mechanical hardware from requirements and early concepts through detailed CAD, drawings, fabrication, assembly, and test.
• Turn engineering ideas into manufacturable products by making practical decisions around materials, tolerances, interfaces, manufacturing methods, cost, and assembly.
• Build, test, and improve your designs by working directly with manufacturing, technicians, analysis, and test teams to identify problems and drive the next iteration.
• Integrate your hardware into larger systems by partnering with vehicle, systems, safety, and other engineering teams to resolve interfaces and technical tradeoffs.
• Grow your technical ownership by progressing from defined components and workstreams toward increasingly independent subsystem design and decision-making.
• IMPACT YOU'LL HAVE
• Deliver new lethality hardware that directly supports U.S. and allied warfighters.
• Take products from early concepts to physical hardware instead of maintaining legacy designs.
• Develop specialized expertise in warhead and ordnance engineering alongside experienced technical leaders.
• See the direct impact of your engineering decisions through manuf
