Full Job Description

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century's most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril's family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

ABOUT THE TEAM

Anduril's Security Engineering team is looking for a Governance, Risk, and Compliance Engineering Lead to build the engineering core of our GRC program: the pipeline and tooling that turn Anduril's systems into continuous, defensible evidence of compliance, replacing the manual scramble that happens at audit time. You'll set technical direction for the function and grow the team building it.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Build the pipeline that collects evidence from Anduril's systems and maps it to a normalized control model
Construct reusable collectors and schemas as reference architectures so each new control is assembly, not reinvention
Stand up the system of record for controls, mappings, and evidence, and drive the build-vs-buy analysis
Surface control drift and route findings to system owners with clear remediation and risk-acceptance paths
Translate frameworks (CMMC, NIST 800-171, FedRAMP/IL5) into automatable technical checks and pass/fail signals
Set technical direction and mentor a growing engineering team

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

6+ years in security engineering, GRC, or a related role, including hands-on building of automation or data pipelines
Strong programming ability in a general-purpose language (Go, Python, Rust, etc.)
Hands-on experience operationalizing compliance frameworks (CMMC, NIST 800-171, 800-53, FedRAMP, SOC 2)
Experience designing data collection and integration across cloud and SaaS systems (APIs, log/event pipelines, data lakes)
Experience with infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, AWS CDK) in a production capacity
Track record of setting technical direction and mentoring engineers
Ability to work autonomously, take ownership of ambiguous problems, and drive alignment across partner teams
Eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret clearance

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Experience with continuous control monitoring or GRC platforms (Vanta, Drata, Hyperproof, OneTrust), or building bespoke equivalents
Experience with security data lakes, log aggregation, or building data marts for querying
Familiarity with STIG/ConMon scanning, CSPM, or Kubernetes hardening
Experience in fast-paced, high-growth defense technology environments

The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary offer may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations. Highly competitive equity grants are included in the majority of full time offers; and are considered part of Anduril's total compensation package. Additionally, Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including:
