About the Role
Join a small, fast-paced defense engineering team designing real-time electronic control systems for flight vehicles. You will own flight-critical hardware from initial design through validation and integration.
What You'll Do
Design control electronics boards, including motor controllers, actuator drivers, and feedback and control loops.
Own hardware end to end, from PCB design and bring-up through debugging, integration, validation, and production.
Develop microcontroller, microprocessor, and mixed-signal circuits for signal processing and real-time control.
Work closely with guidance, navigation, and control, avionics, and flight software teams to integrate systems.
Define requirements and drive technical decisions across the hardware design.
What We're Looking For
Three to fifteen years of experience designing control or power electronics hardware, including motor drivers or actuator controllers.
A BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
Hands-on experience designing, bringing up, and debugging control or power electronics PCB assemblies.
Experience with analog and mixed-signal circuits for motor drivers, power conversion, or precision control loops.
PCB design experience, including schematic capture through layout; Altium experience is preferred.
Familiarity with embedded hardware such as ARM-based systems, microcontrollers, and CAN.
Experience in a startup or fast-paced hardware environment is valued. Flight hardware or other high-reliability experience in aerospace, defense, or automotive is relevant.
Must be a U.S. citizen and eligible for a security clearance. Must be authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary: $150,000 to $200,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.
Location
On-site in Torrance, California.
