Associate Director, Logistics Program Management

About the role

The duty of this organization is to enable our Customers' ongoing Mission Readiness. From the moment they say '"go" until the contract is fulfilled. We are only successful when the customer's mission is successful. Mission Readiness is the post-production shared services organization for Anduril. This team supports the Business Lines and Divisions throughout the lifecycle of their product, from initial sustainment concept through delivery, installation, operation, repair and return. These service offerings also include providing technical publications, training, customer support, connectivity services and other value-added services. To the degree the Business elects, we accept the delegated responsibility for upfront and continued delivery of the committed service solutions. This team endeavors to provide the Business Lines, as our internal customers, shared mission services that are more efficient and cost effective than if they chose to provide them directly. By offering mission support capabilities and capacity that are not "core" to the Business, the Business can focus resources on addressing the next big need while we ensure existing commitments are met. We are looking for an Associate Director, Logistics Program Management to join our rapidly growing Deployments team in Costa Mesa, CA. This is a new management role responsible for leading a team of Logistics Program Managers and for building the central functional frameworks that define how logistics program management operates across Anduril. You will set the standard for how logistics CDRLs are developed, how program-level logistics execution is planned and tracked, and how best practices are codified and scaled across programs and business lines. As the first dedicated people leader for this discipline, you will be responsible for hiring, developing, and retaining top logistics program management talent while also serving as the functional authority on logistics program management processes, tools, and standards. You will partner closely with Integrated Product Support leads, program managers, engineering, supply chain, and customer stakeholders to ensure logistics program management is executed consistently and at a high level across all programs. We are a fast-growing company, and you will be expected to own material and important projects during your time on the team, which will have a significant impact on the company's trajectory. Anduril fosters a diverse, collaborative culture with plenty of opportunities for ownership and professional growth.
