G&A Manager, Space Special Projects

Anduril Industries • Reston, VA

About The Position

Anduril's G&A functions — Operations, Contracts, Security, and Procurement/Supply Chain — are the connective tissue that lets our engineering and program teams move fast on the hardest problems in defense. These teams sit embedded with the business, partner directly with division leadership, and turn ambiguous requirements (a new site stand-up, a complex OTA, a SAP/SCI program) into resourced, executable plans. We're hiring across all three functions and want to talk to talented people who can bring deep expertise in one of these areas to a fast-moving, mission-driven environment.

We are hiring G&A Managers across four functional spikes — Operations, Contracts, Security/Classified Infrastructure, and Supply Chain / Procurement — to support divisions across Anduril's portfolio. Regardless of spike, you will partner with division leadership and cross-functional teams to translate complex business, customer, and regulatory requirements into structures, processes, and decisions that let the business move with speed. You will own ambiguous problems end-to-end, work across the full stack of Anduril (engineering, program execution, finance, growth, security, facilities, IT), and be a force multiplier for the teams you support.

Requirements

• 5+ years in a relevant G&A discipline — operations / business operations / management consulting, government contracts management, or industrial/program security
• Demonstrated ability to operate in ambiguity, decompose complex problems, and drive to resourced solutions
• Strong cross-functional communicator — comfortable leading meetings with large groups, briefing senior leadership, and aligning stakeholders
• Self-driven and proactive — you step into gaps rather than waiting to be assigned
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent industry experience
• U.S. Person status is required (position requires access to export-controlled data)
• Ability to obtain and maintain an active U.S. security clearance
• Spike-specific: Operations: Experience in management consulting, internal operations, or business operations; track record of building scalable processes and running cross-functional projects end-to-end
• Spike-specific: Contracts: Full lifecycle contract management experience across cost-reimbursable, fixed-price, and T&M government and commercial contracts; strong working knowledge of FAR/DFARS
• Spike-specific: Security: Strong understanding of multiple security disciplines from collateral through SAP/SCI; working knowledge of DoDM 5205.07, ICD-705, 32 CFR Part 117, and IC guidance; SFPC, SAP Mid-Level, or similar certification

Nice To Haves

• Active U.S. Top Secret or TS/SCI clearance
• Prior experience supporting DoD or IC customers
• Experience standing up new sites, programs, or organizational functions from scratch
• Contracts spike: NCMA certifications (CPCM, CFCM, CCCM); experience with CAS, FAR cost allowability, and Certified Cost or Pricing Data; experience with major DoD weapons platforms; graduate degree in business, law, or government
• Security spike: 10+ years of security experience; experience embedding security into system design and product development from the outset
• Operations spike: Experience running operations for a defense or IC-facing business unit

Responsibilities

• Serve as a strategic partner to division and business line leadership, embedded in the business and trusted to drive G&A outcomes that unblock programs and growth
• Own ambiguous problems end-to-end — Definition → Solution → Implementation — often without prescription on how to solve them
• Work cross-functionally with engineering, program execution, finance, growth, security, IT, and facilities
• Build durable processes and frameworks that scale with the business line’s footprint, headcount, and program complexity
• Communicate clearly to senior leadership and across large, multi-stakeholder groups
• If your spike is Operations : Stand up and run business operations for a business line — headcount unlocks, IRAD spend analysis, program profitability, site expansion (e.g., scaling a new footprint with IT, Security, Facilities, Growth, Program Execution)
• Lead high-impact special projects that don't fit neatly inside any one function's charter
• Build the operational scaffolding that lets program managers execute against contracts with ease
• If your spike is Contracts : Own the full contract lifecycle for a business line’s government and commercial contracts — proposal support, negotiation, compliance, modifications, close-out
• Support a portfolio spanning cost-reimbursable, fixed-price, T&M, IDIQ, OTA, and commercial contracts
• Provide FAR/DFARS guidance, draft contract briefs for PMs and executives, and negotiate complex terms with federal agencies, primes, and subcontractors
• Partner with legal, proposals, finance, and program teams to mitigate risk and optimize contract performance
• If your spike is Security/Classified Infrastructure : Serve as the embedded security partner for a business line, integrating security and classified infrastructure as an enabler of mission objectives — not a downstream function
• Drive early security engagement in new business pursuits, bid/no-bid decisions, and proposal development
• Translate complex customer and contractual security requirements (collateral through SAP/SCI) into clear, resourced plans
• Provide guidance and oversight to security teams supporting the business line’s programs and partner with Industrial/Special Programs Security, Classified IT, and Facilities
