Anduril’s Sheet Metal team sits within Development Manufacturing, where we turn fast-moving engineering concepts into physical hardware for some of the company’s highest-priority programs.
This is not a high-volume production shop. We build low-volume prototype and development hardware, often working directly with design engineers while designs are still evolving. The parts we make move quickly into larger assemblies, testing, and field use, giving the team a direct line of sight from an engineering concept to real hardware supporting Anduril’s mission.
We are intentional about developing versatile fabricators. Team members typically build depth in one area and then cross-train across laser cutting, waterjet, press brake, forming, finishing, and other fabrication processes. You do not need to arrive knowing every machine or process. We value people who are mechanically curious, accountable, willing to learn, and motivated to grow their craft.
As a Sheet Metal Fabrication Technician — Prototype Development, you will help turn engineering designs into finished hardware.
You may start with a CAD model, drawing, or developing concept and carry the work through flat pattern development, cutting, forming, finishing, inspection, and delivery. As your capability grows, you will take increasing ownership of the manufacturing decisions behind the part—selecting tooling, planning bend sequences, adjusting setups, diagnosing problems, and helping engineers improve designs before they reach the shop floor.
This is a hands-on development role for someone who wants to become a stronger all-around fabricator. You will work alongside experienced teammates, learn multiple fabrication processes over time, and take greater ownership as your skills develop.
The pace is fast, the work changes frequently, and the expectation is straightforward: learn quickly, take ownership of your work, ask good questions, and build hardware the team can trust.
