By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century's most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold.
Anduril's family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.What You'll DoThe Enterprise SG&A team within Corporate Finance builds the systems that power Anduril's SG&A finance teams. That means the data pipelines, automations, dashboards, and AI tools that finance partners use to plan, forecast, report, and close.
As Anduril scales, our job is to make sure the finance organization's tooling scales with it. We're looking for an intern who wants to work where finance, data, and AI meet. You'll work with real data from day one, ship tools that finance teams and department owners use every month, and take on a wide range of projects.Build and maintain automations that replace manual steps in month-end close, reporting, and planning workflowsWrite SQL and Python against Anduril's financial data warehouse (Databricks) to pull, clean, and analyze GL, vendor, and headcount dataDesign self-serve dashboards and tools so finance partners and department owners can get answers without ad hoc data requestsApply AI to finance workflows, including building prompts, agents, and reusable skills, and testing their output for accuracy before it reaches usersSet up scheduled tasks and data refreshes so recurring deliverables run on their ownPartner with FP&A, Accounting, and business owners to understand how they work today, find bottlenecks, and design and document better processesBuild checks that catch data issues early, such as miscoded charges, duplicate spend, or breaks between source systemsTake projects from a rough idea through build, testing, and handoff, and keep improving them after they launchWe're looking for someone who treats the initial ask as a starting point.
