Stratolaunch accelerates the development of next-generation aerospace and defense technologies through reusable hypersonic flight testing. Our autonomous, air-launched Talon-A vehicles provide access to operationally realistic flight environments at speeds exceeding Mach 5, delivering critical data that helps customers validate system performance and advance technologies toward deployment. Our team brings together expertise in engineering, manufacturing, and flight operations to solve complex challenges and advance capabilities essential to national security.

To help achieve these efforts, Stratolaunch is seeking an Avionics Manufacturing Engineer (ME) level I, II, or Sr to support design, integration, testing, and maintenance of one of our carrier or hypersonic vehicles electrical and avionics systems; as a ME you will be responsible for the following:

Work Instructions, detailed documentation to be released to the electrical shop for manufacturing related information for production, testing or tooling.
Ability to fully define a manufacturing process step-by-step
Ability to identify alternate part numbers
Ability to produce engineering documentation following industry standards (Section Views, Detail Views, flag notes, etc.)
Process improvement documentation to establish production line standardization efforts
Electrical manufacturing engineering processes to define current practices
Electrical manufacturing processes to define company practices and preferred manufacturing methods (Shop)
Aerospace Industry Standards implementation
Desktop and Shop Aid documentation to support current workflows
Liaison engineering support in the electrical shop to provide technicians with sufficient support to complete the task on hand
Explain electrical manufacturing processes from Stratolaunch and Aerospace industry standards
Redline released engineering documentation
Source and purchase electrical components from released engineering documentation and manufacturing related tasks for Shop support (Shop setup activities, tooling, etc.)
Evaluation of a broad range of technical data, interaction with different disciplines involved in the design, purchasing, manufacturing, integration, and testing of our vehicle(s).
Analyze and verify all the engineering requirements are met to estimate time of fabrication and producibility between the margins of cost and schedule
