We are seeking a Master Scheduler with prior training and experience working on major development programs to team with our program leadership to deliver a robust and accurate schedule. As Master Scheduler, you will own the development and maintenance of the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) for one of Anduril’s strategic programs. You will work mostly with our Program Managers (PMs) and Integrated Product Team (IPT) leads to tailor and status the IMS on a regular basis. The IMS serves as the source of truth for both Anduril leadership and our government customers, so it is critical that it reflects the current understanding at all times. You will be expected to understand the program scope at a detailed level and quickly intuit schedule impacts to scope or duration changes of critical program tasks.

Success in this position hinges on two key facets:

1. Strong understanding of IMS and EVMS systems - this is a large development program with traditional reporting and EVM requirements. An understanding of (and preferably direct experience with) similar types of programs will be critical to ensuring a compliant program schedule.
2. An Execution Mindset - we are looking for a self-starter who isn’t afraid of digging into the details with different teams to highlight conflicts or risks that can be raised to the program leadership team.
