Senior Data Engineer, Quality Intelligence

About Quality Intelligence

Quality Intelligence builds the data, analytics, and AI that make Anduril's manufacturing programs measurably better. Our customers are program quality leaders, manufacturing engineers, and operators across sites and programs. The work is concrete: scorecards that catch quality drift before customers do, pipelines that turn ERP / MES / QMS data into decisions, and AI tools that compress hours of manual triage into minutes.

We operate a hub-and-spoke model. HQ builds platform-grade analytics centrally; site engineers localize and run them at each manufacturing site. This role anchors the build at our Atlanta site.

About the Role

This is a senior, hands-on data engineer role at Anduril's Atlanta manufacturing operations. You will own end-to-end data and analytics work that shows up directly on the factory floor. You'll pull from real production systems (ERP, MES, QMS, inventory), build pipelines and ontologies in Palantir Foundry and Databricks, and partner with manufacturing engineers, ML practitioners, and program quality leads to ship analytics products operators actually use.

You will be expected to use AI aggressively in your own work: to draft pipelines, write tests, generate dashboards, explore unfamiliar data, and accelerate the repetitive parts of the job. You will also be expected to be near the hardware. Manufacturing is a building full of people who need answers from your data, and the best engineers on this team walk the line, ask what is this part, and let that shape the schema.

You will partner directly with the site's applications lead to deliver analytics the production floor depends on. The architectural decisions you make here set the template for our other manufacturing sites.

What You'll Do

• Own analytics architecture for the Atlanta site: Design, build, and operate the production scorecards, Piece Part Plan pipelines, and inspection-data analytics the site runs on. Decisions you make set the pattern for other sites.
• Investigate data quality: When a dashboard is inaccurate or a number looks wrong, you are the lead investigator. Perform deep-dive analysis in SQL and Python, trace problems through the stack, identify the root cause, and fix it at the source.
• Drive technical improvements: Implement robust >The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only.
