Cloud Engineer – Factory Systems and Operational Technology

ABOUT THE TEAM:

ArsenalOS is the digital backbone of Anduril’s hardware enterprise. It connects the full lifecycle, from concept to build to field feedback, into one operating environment built for speed, traceability, autonomy, and continuous improvement. That environment includes not just the software used to design, plan, and execute work, but also the factory-facing infrastructure that connects operators, machines, test systems, and OT networks into the same adaptive Build Chain. It is not a support function, but rather a strategic investment by Anduril that the operating system of the hardware lifecycle is how we win. It will be one of the mechanisms by which Anduril out-builds, out-adapts, and out-scales the traditional defense industrial base.

ABOUT THE JOB:

Anduril’s Factory Systems team provides the connective tissue for which our advanced defense products are built, deployed, and secured. We are seeking a mission-driven Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to take a leading role in designing and implementing world-class defensive controls. This is a high-impact role with the autonomy to shape security architecture and protect the technology that is changing the future of defense.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Design and Own Security Architecture: Architect, build, and deploy robust, scalable security controls for our corporate, development, and production cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Automate Everything: Develop and automate infrastructure-as-code (IaC) to manage and scale our cloud deployments securely and efficiently.
• Proactively Defend: Continuously monitor, identify, and remediate security weaknesses and configuration drift across our entire cloud footprint.
• Be a Force Multiplier: Partner with infrastructure, application, and product teams to embed security best practices into their workflows and secure environments holding mission-critical data.
• Enable Scale and Reliability: Engineer systems and processes that ensure our platforms are highly available, resilient, and prepared for rapid growth.
• Serve as a Cloud Security Expert: Act as the go-to subject matter expert for teams across Anduril, providing guidance, mentorship, and paved-road solutions for building securely in the cloud.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Proven experience building and securing complex cloud environments, typically gained through 3+ years in a Cloud Security, DevOps, or SRE role.
• Deep proficiency in at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Strong hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation, Bicep).
• Solid programming/scripting ability in one or more languages (e.g., Python, Go, Rust).
• Firm understanding of public cloud networking principles (e.g., VPCs, subnets, routing, security groups).
• Must be a U.S. Person and eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. Top Secret security clearance.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Experience hardening and monitoring Kubernetes clusters (EKS, GKE, AKS).
• Experience with cloud security posture management (CSPM) or threat detection tooling.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and securing the software supply chain.
• Knowledge of compliance frameworks such as FedRAMP, MRL, SOC 2, or CMMC.
• On-premises network engineering experience.
