About The Position

The Operations Manager, Internal Mobility owns the day-to-day operations of how employees move into new roles at Anduril. The role connects People Operations, Talent Acquisition Operations, and Division Operations by running core processes, improving workflows, and ensuring partner teams have the support needed to place internal talent effectively. It provides operational support across internal mobility and develops the workflows, systems, and tools needed to scale the program.

The role manages internal moves from eligibility verification through start-date coordination and transition closeout; serves as an escalation point and advisor; and builds consistent processes, playbooks, and escalation paths. It owns operational systems infrastructure across Greenhouse, Foundry/Jira, and internal systems, including automation, tracking, reporting, and adoption. The position partners with Recruiters, People Business Partners, Compensation, and Division Operations teams, and supports rollouts and adoption of process and system changes.

The Operations Manager maintains and operationalizes eligibility criteria, internal posting policies, and movement guidelines.
