What stands out

Four things a recruiter can act on

0 of 36

Nobody has gone to nuclear yet

None of the 36 took a nuclear job, at the first stop or since. Radiant has 3 Anduril alumni today, and none of them came from electrical engineering. No nuclear company is competing for this pool yet.

14 → 18

Detours end back in defense and space

14 went straight to defense tech, new space or a prime. 5 more who first tried robotics, big tech or consulting have since moved into defense or space hardware, so the group now stands at 18.

9 of 36

They leave for a bigger title

9 now hold a principal, staff, manager, director or founder title they did not have at Anduril. Scope and title move this group more than a lateral offer does.

11 of 36

Nearly a third live in Southern California

Costa Mesa, Irvine, Long Beach, Torrance, Hawthorne and El Segundo, all within reach of Radiant's El Segundo site. 7 more are around Atlanta, home to Anduril's Georgia team.

Keeping it current

How this list can stay live for Radiant

Radiant plans to deploy 15 Kaleidos reactors to the Army by 2030, and that schedule needs electrical engineers. The same data can run on a schedule instead of once.

Track tenure milestones, title changes and team moves, so outreach goes out when someone is most likely to listen.

How this was counted

Scope: anyone who held an electrical engineer or electrical engineering manager title at Anduril (any level, including test, integration, design and systems variants) and no longer works there. Interns, co-ops, technicians, recruiters and director-level and above titles are left out, to match the ask.

Sources: 3,629 Anduril alumni profiles in Crustdata's people index, plus two live searches of public professional profiles for former Anduril staff with electrical engineering titles. Every person on this page was confirmed in a live profile check on 15 Oct 2026.

Removed after checking: 3 people the index listed as gone who are still at Anduril, 3 students whose summer stints carried an engineer title, and 1 profile that no longer exists.

First stop is the first job that started after the person's last Anduril role. Today is their current role. "No new role listed" means the profile shows no job after Anduril. The Anduril headcount figure counts current profiles whose title matches an electrical engineering title and may include a few integration and test roles. Private or hidden profiles cannot be seen by any search, so these counts are a floor.
