Anduril Industries

Principal Product Manager

December 2024 - Current

Hyperscaling multi-hop geospatial infrastructure from space to the edge for GPS-denied navigation anywhere on the planet and spatial computing for mixed reality systems spanning UAV, UUV, USV, and HUD assets.
  • Designed and implemented the shift to an edge-first architecture for GPS-denied operations, deployed across Tactical Recon & Strike systems including Ghost, Bolt, Altius, and Anvil.
  • Defined the roadmap for the AI-native “Fused Earth” architecture, unifying global satellite, elevation, and terrain data.
  • Developed a multi-hop data compression pipeline (Internet → Cloud → Edge-Cloud → Edge) reducing petabyte-scale inputs to gigabyte-scale deliverables for real-time edge execution.
  • Directed acquisition and integration of high-value datasets—satellite imagery, electronic nautical charts, 3D terrain, and vector maps—while leading vendor negotiations with Vantor, Blackshark.ai, Maxar, and TCarta.
  • Built a cross-functional framework with Finance, Operations, and Engineering to manage licensed data across IRAD and Production, yielding $3M in efficiency gains across Air & Ground Defense, Tactical Recon & Strike, and Connected Warfare programs.
  • Championed a simulation-first development model using accelerated computing to enable adaptive, AI-driven autonomy.
  • Established Anduril’s first end-to-end analytics framework, enabling data-driven product development and system observability.
  • Spearheaded zero-to-one integration of Blackshark.ai synthetic scene generation for sensor-ready environments derived from satellite imagery.
