About the team

The Analytics team is responsible for modeling our internal data into reusable entities that generalize how Anduril operates. From those entities we build workflows, dashboards, and metrics that drive better and faster decision-making. You will work with stakeholders from across the company to understand how Anduril functions and model our data to create the digital twin of our operations.

About the job

We’re looking for people who love ontologies - defining domains and writing the code that puts those models into action. Ideally you are passionate about the next generation of defense technology and love building efficient and understandable data models. You prioritize velocity and are interested in pushing the frontiers of what analytics can do within an organization - think data applications rather than just dashboards.

What you'll do

  • Lead the building of Anduril’s ontology for a specific domain such as Finance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, People, and Sustainment
  • Collaborate with stakeholders, collecting requirements, and writing the code that results in Secure, Timely, Accurate, Trusted, and Extensible Data Models
  • Seek out problems that can be solved with data and proactively work with the organization to make it a reality
  • Become a trusted resource for Anduril leadership in helping them run their organizations more effectively

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in an analytics focused role - Analytics Engineer, Data Engineer or Analyst / Consultant with a strong engineering background
  • 2+ years in a Lead role, demonstrating autonomy and process ownership
  • You are motivated by our mission. We are working to solve the biggest problems in defense
  • Your weekend reading usually involves authors named Kimball or Inmon or modern data modeling blogs
  • You’re energized by business impact & a self-starter: you’d rather build an imperfect data model quickly that is used by many people than a perfect data model that collects dust
  • You thrive in cross-functional projects that have a heavy combination of technical requirements and user-focused workflows
  • Expert with SQL and experience with Python or other programming languages
  • Experience with data stack tools: dbt, Redshift, Looker/Tableau, Palantir Foundry
  • You are empathetic: you are eager to see the world from your users’ perspective
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
