Anduril Industries is looking to streamline business processes and shipyard workflows across design, production, logistics, and quality by building applied AI and automation systems. This role focuses on operationalizing models, automating manual workflows, and developing the infrastructure that enables AI-driven decision support across the Build Chain to improve throughput, reduce administrative burden, and accelerate decision velocity.
Requirements
- Proficiency in Python and experience with ML frameworks (PyTorch or TensorFlow) and data processing libraries.
- Experience building and deploying containerized services (Docker; familiarity with Kubernetes preferred).
- Understanding of MLOps practices: data pipelines, model versioning, evaluation, CI/CD for ML, monitoring, and retraining.
- Experience working with off-the-shelf models (OCR/IDP, CV, STT, RAG) and integrating them into workflow pipelines.
- Familiarity with event-driven architectures, IoT or UNS patterns, and integration with enterprise systems.
- Experience with APIs, schema-based integration, and data contracts.
- Experience automating workflows in manufacturing, logistics, or enterprise business processes.
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain data pipelines, feature engineering workflows, and model-serving components that support applied AI use cases across the yard.
- Implement automation workflows that streamline business and production processes—applying models, logic, and orchestration to remove manual steps and reduce friction.
- Integrate off-the-shelf models (OCR/IDP, CV, RAG, STT) into workflow solutions using standardized APIs, datasets, and orchestration layers.
- Build and maintain MLOps pipelines for data ingestion, labeling, versioning, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and rollback.
- Deploy workflow automation and model-serving components in event-driven environments integrated with PLM, MES, CMMS, ERP, and unified data layers.
- Contribute to observability tools for monitoring inference performance, data quality, and workflow reliability.
- Ensure all deployed AI/automation workflows include human-in-the-loop gates, audit trails, and compliance features required for production operations.
Other
- Strong stakeholder and cross-functional communication skills; able to gather workflow requirements and convert them into technical automation.
- 3–6 years of experience in machine learning engineering, MLOps, or backend workflow automation.
- Strong problem-solving skills with an ability to simplify workflows into modular, reusable automation components.
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
- Experience with workflow orchestration tools (Airflow, Flyte, Prefect, Temporal).
