Senior Accountant – Long-Lived Assets

We are looking for an exceptional Senior Accountant to support Anduril's long-lived asset accounting function — property, plant, and equipment, leases, and intangibles. The Accounting team owns the month-end close and reporting infrastructure behind one of the fastest-scaling companies in defense. This is a build seat more than a maintain seat: we are preparing for a future potential IPO, expanding rapidly, and integrating acquired businesses, so you will help set the processes, systems, and controls this function runs on for years.

The ideal candidate will be able to support the hyper growth of our business and will therefore need to be comfortable and experienced moving at an incredibly fast pace. Come join us as we disrupt an entire industry and help take your career to the next level with a team that is charging towards changing the world of defense.

• Reporting & Disclosures: Prepare footnotes, disclosures, and supporting schedules for long-lived asset accounts to support financial reporting.

• Systems & Process Improvement: Help implement new systems or improve efficiencies with current systems to support continued company and team growth.
