Anduril Industries
Test Engineer, Maritime Production
About this role
Anduril Industries seeks a Senior Test Engineer to lead hardware integration and qualification testing for advanced maritime and subsea systems. You will own comprehensive test campaigns for mission-critical pressure vessels and mechanisms, correlating physical test data with MBSE models while generating formal qualification evidence for defense customers.
What you'll do
- Design, build, and oversee hydrostatic proof, burst, and cyclic pressure testing of subsea hardware and pressure-boundary structures
- Develop and execute Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) test plans, validating system sequencing, sensor/actuator response, and fault modes
- Define instrumentation suites and modern data acquisition architectures for complex environmental and structural testing
- Integrate test data into digital thread (MBSE/Cameo) and correlate results with finite element models and stress analysis
- Generate comprehensive test data packages and Objective Quality Evidence (OQE) for government and prime contractor qualification
- Partner with ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratories to scope, schedule, and conduct formal qualification test programs
What they're looking for
- HITL and electro-mechanical functional testing
- Hydrostatic and pressure vessel testing design and execution
- Test instrumentation (strain gauges, pressure transducers, load cells, LVDTs, accelerometers)
- Data acquisition (DAQ) system architecture and implementation
- Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and Cameo
- Test planning, test readiness reviews (TRRs), and formal qualification reporting
- NAVSEA/GDEB/ASME/ABS standards and defense compliance
- Cross-functional technical leadership and project coordination
