Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Own full-cycle recruiting for the Air Dominance and Strike program, focusing on manufacturing engineering, production, and supply chain talent. Partner with operations leaders to define hiring needs and execute data-driven strategies to close exceptional talent.
Requires 4+ years of technical sourcing and 3+ years of client-facing experience with a deep network in manufacturing and supply chain. Must have experience with DoD agencies, security clearances, and strong negotiation skills for technical roles.
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 Role
We build at scale, and we need recruiters who understand what that actually takes. As a member of Anduril's Air Dominance and Strike Production Recruiting team, you'll own hiring for our Air Dominance and Strike program, the manufacturing engineering, production, and supply chain talent that turns designs into deliverable systems on the factory floor.
This is hands-on, full cycle recruiting on a small team where no task is too big or too small. You'll partner directly with operations and program leaders to define what "good" looks like, then go find it, pitch it, and close it. We'll give you the autonomy and tools; we expect you to bring the bias for action. The best people in this role think like operators: they invent and simplify broken processes, they identify problems early and show up with solutions instead of getting lost in the details, and they put ego aside to do whatever the mission needs.
We're looking for someone who genuinely understands production, who can speak the language of the floor, translate a hiring gap into its impact on throughput and revenue, and earn the respect of straight-shooting manufacturing and supply chain leaders. If you're hungry, roll up your sleeves by default, and have a real passion for talent acquisition, you'll fit right in.
This role is onsite in Costa Mesa, CA or Ashville, OH. It is open to contract only, with eligibility to convert. The ideal candidate brings startup, manufacturing, and/or relevant domain experience.
