What you need

  • Bachelor’s degree in Aviation, Aerospace Engineering, Regulatory Affairs, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in FAA regulatory compliance, certification, airworthiness or equivalent experience.
  • Strong knowledge of FAA regulatory frameworks, including experience with COAs, 44807 exemptions, Part 91, Part 135, or Part 107 operations.
  • Experience engaging directly with FAA representatives and regulatory agencies.
  • Ability to instrument and report on your own process: define the metrics that show whether approvals are keeping pace with test demand, and present them to a leadership audience.
  • Familiarity with autonomous systems, UAS, and emerging aviation technologies.

Nice to have

  • Proficiency with Jira, Confluence, or equivalent work tracking and documentation systems, including building reporting on top of them.
  • FAA certification or regulatory-related training (e.g., DER, DAR, Part 107 certification, or other FAA compliance training).
  • Experience with Safety Management Systems (SMS) and risk-based compliance approaches.
  • Experience with UAS-specific compliance issues, including BVLOS and detect-and-avoid (DAA) technologies.
  • Knowledge of DCMA 8210.1D, MIL-STD airworthiness processes, or other defense-related airworthiness policies.

What you get

  • Highly competitive equity grants are included in the majority of full time offers; and are considered part of Anduril's total compensation package.
  • Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees.

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of work-life balance or flexible working hours.
  • The role requires the ability to work extended hours and travel as needed, which may impact personal time.
  • The position involves significant interaction with regulatory bodies, which may lead to a high-pressure environment due to compliance deadlines.
