Canberra, ACT, Australia Anduril Full time

Company Overview:

Anduril Industries is a leading defense technology company that aims to revolutionize the military capabilities of the U.S. and its allies with cutting-edge technologies. Our mission is to bring innovation and efficiency to the defense industry, enabling us to transform how military systems are designed, built, and sold.

We achieve this through our expertise in AI-powered operating systems, such as Lattice OS, which turns data streams into actionable information for warfighters at all levels. As we navigate an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing forth cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in record time.

Salary: $120,000 - $180,000 per year

About the Role:

We are seeking a highly skilled Business Development Director to join our team at Anduril Australia. As a Business Development Director, you will play a key role in conceptualizing, identifying, shaping, capturing, and growing new business opportunities and capabilities for the company.

You will work closely with our Mission Operations team to execute contracts, grow business with existing customers, and develop strategies to capture new opportunities. Your primary responsibility will be to communicate our value to customers, convey insights about our approach to building next-generation defense technology, and highlight our competitive edges.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • Mission First Mindset: We put the needs of the mission and our customers first. You should actively seek out opportunities to better understand your customer's mission needs and strive to build the best possible products for the warfighter.
  • Ownership Mentality: As a Business Development Director, you will be responsible for assuming high levels of ownership and responsibility for your accounts and contributing to a culture of performance.
  • Technical Aptitude and Intellectual Curiosity: You should have a natural desire to see beyond simple cause-and-effect relationships and understand how complex systems operate. This includes a strong understanding of machine learning, autonomy, distributed networking, and multi-modal sensor fusion.
  • Structured Thinker and Problem Solver: You will need to think critically and develop well-thought-out plans that are practical and implementable. This requires excellent communication skills, the ability to distill complexity into its essential components, and support execution.
  • High Value Team Member: As a member of our team, you will enjoy working collaboratively with account teams, engineering, logistics, technical operations, and more. You should be humble, eager to learn, and empathetic towards your fellow team members.
  • 360 Degree Leader: You should be self-aware enough to recognize your position of unstated leadership within the company. This requires demonstrated leadership skills, the ability to influence people through formal and informal constructs, and a willingness to solve problems immediately rather than pointing them out and stepping back.

Benefits:

  • Paid Caregiver & Wellness Leave (16 weeks)
  • Fertility (IVF, preservation), adoption, and gestational carrier coverage
  • Free mental health resources 24/7
  • Daily meals and provisions
  • Company-funded commuter benefits
  • Relocation assistance (depending on role eligibility)
