REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Willing and able to travel 75%+ internationally and/or relocate flexibly on short notice. A valid passport, the ability to obtain visas to a wide range of countries, and comfort operating for extended periods away from home are all required.
Strong agency and judgement to operate independently overseas. Mature enough to make calls in the moment with imperfect information, and mature enough not to go rogue. You know when to decide and when to escalate.
Builds trust and relationships across cultures, functions, and seniority levels. You can walk into a room with a foreign defense official, a local real estate broker, or an executive and leave with a relationship. High emotional intelligence is table stakes.
Comfortable constantly moving between big-picture strategy, fine details, and execution sometimes all in the same day, across a 14-hour economy flight. You can shape Anduril’s approach to a country and also negotiate lease terms or source a local supplier.
A strong communicator across a huge dynamic range: working-level engineers, finance partners, foreign counterparts, and executives, usually across 12+ hour time zones. You over-communicate when operating far from HQ because you understand trust erodes with distance and silence.
Self-aware and coachable. You seek feedback and self-correct, especially important when you’re operating far from the team and need to catch your own blind spots.
High ownership with the horsepower to juggle multiple (2-3+) international projects in parallel, at a rapid pace, reporting out progress regularly without dropping balls.
6+ years of working experience with a minimum of 3+ years in a consulting, operations, finance, or product/program management role.
Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
Proficiency in a second language.
Previous experience living or working abroad.
Familiarity with export controls (e.g. ITAR/EAR, UK Strategic Export Control Lists, EU Dual-Use regulations, etc.) and the practical implications of operating in regulated international defense environments
Former startup founder or early-stage operator: you’ve built something from zero and know what it takes to create without a playbook.
Undergraduate degree in a STEM major.
