About the role

International Business Operations are forward-deployed operators who travel frequently and/or relocate flexibly to solve high-priority ambiguous problems across the globe, including standing up new facilities, localizing production, and supporting acquisition diligence or acquisition implementation. This role demands exceptional judgement to operate with a high degree of agency and trust, paired with the communication skills and relationships-building to keep distant stakeholders aligned and decisions moving. You will work directly with Global Defense, Strategic Real Estate, Corporate Development and Division leadership to deliver ambitious outcomes against unreasonable timelines.

Responsibilities

  • Forward-deploy to new geographies to stand up facilities, establish local presence, and build relationships with customers, partners, contractors, government stakeholders, and prospective hires. You will be Anduril's face on the ground before there is a local team to hand off to.

  • Build and leverage a high-quality network across Anduril : Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Finance, Legal, Compliance, People, Security, NetEng, and more, to unblock yourself from abroad and pull the right expertise in at the right time.
  • REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Willing and able to travel 75%+ internationally and/or relocate flexibly on short notice . A valid passport, the ability to obtain visas to a wide range of countries, and comfort operating for extended periods away from home are all required.
  • Strong agency and judgement to operate independently overseas. Mature enough to make calls in the moment with imperfect information, and mature enough not to go rogue. You know when to decide and when to escalate.
  • Builds trust and relationships across cultures, functions, and seniority levels. You can walk into a room with a foreign defense official, a local real estate broker, or an executive and leave with a relationship. High emotional intelligence is table stakes.
  • Comfortable constantly moving between big-picture strategy, fine details, and execution sometimes all in the same day, across a 14-hour economy flight. You can shape Anduril's approach to a country and also negotiate lease terms or source a local supplier.
  • A strong communicator across a huge d
