Last month, it was announced<\/a> that defense technology startup Anduril Industries will take over Microsoft’s $22 billion<\/a> contract to make high-tech goggles for the U.S. Army. The company has also recently revealed other defense contracts<\/a> in the $200 million range<\/a> each.<\/p>\n Now, it needs employees to make it all happen.<\/p>\n Anduril, which was founded by Palmer Luckey<\/a> (who created the Oculus VR and sold it<\/a> for $2 billion to Facebook in 2014), has been targeting cities with large populations of young tech talent, like Boston, Atlanta, and Seattle, for its unconventional recruitment campaign.<\/p>\n Spotted in Boston @anduriltech<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/RDxELv5Pho<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Ari Wagen (@AriWagen) February 24, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The campaign says<\/a> “Work at Anduril.com” with a “Don’t” placed over the top in a spray-painted, street-art-like font. The ads use various mediums around the cities, especially in key public transportation hubs. In Boston, for example, the ads look like graffiti on the T (Boston’s subway system).<\/p>\n Australian site Defence Connect<\/a> called the campaign “kooky” and wrote that its staff initially thought Anduril had been hacked<\/a>. Last year, Anduril Australia announced it was building a manufacturing facility in the country, the outlet noted.<\/p>\n In response to the ads and their viral appeal, Anduril’s Vice President of Marketing Jeff Miller told the Boston Globe<\/a>: “Anduril is not for everyone. That’s the point.”<\/p>\n\n
