Avionics Production Engineer (Senior-Lead)

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it. OUR MISSION True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority.

S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground. OUR VALUES Be the offset.

We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity. What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.

It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together. YOUR MISSION We are revolutionizing spacecraft systems and are searching for candidates passionate about hands-on engineering and advancing new technologies in space.

As a Senior/Lead Avionics Production Engineer, you will own production engineering strategy and execution for avionics hardware across multiple spacecraft programs. You will build scalable manufacturing processes, lead and develop production engineering teams, and partner with design engineering to drive manufacturability from concept through high-rate production. This role requires deep technical expertise, proven leadership in production environments, and the ability to build systems and teams that scale from prototype to volume manufacturing.

Compensation

will be determined based on experience, technical depth, leadership capability, and scope of prior manufacturing programs owned.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Lead and mentor a team of avionics production engineers, providing technical guidance, production metrics, skill development, and performance management. Own the production engineering strategy and execution for avionics components and systems to achieve cost, rate, and quality targets Drive technical reviews with design engineering and make critical go/no-go production engineering decisions to ensure design is manufacturable. Own the setup and scaling of spacecraft avionics manufacturing factory capabilities for developmental programs and rate production.

Develop technical documentation and work instructions for the assembly, integration, and test of avionics subsystems including flight computers, power systems, RF/communications hardware, harnesses, and related ground support equipment and tooling. Directly support production on the floor to ensure efficient build of avionics hardware, addressing bottlenecks and non-conformances, and troubleshooting technical issues as needed. Drive continuous improvements and corrective actions to increase efficiency and reliability of avionics hardware manufacturing by utilizing production metrics.

Drive engagement with Supply Chain on vendor management and make/buy strategies Oversee calibration and certification of electrical ground support equipment including bench power supplies, oscilloscopes, cable testers, and functional test equipment.

QUALIFICATIONS

Bachelor's degree in manufacturing, industrial, mechanical, electrical, computer engineering or related field. Experience in manufacturing engineering for aerospace, defense, or high-reliability systems commensurate with the level of responsibility. Strong communication and collaboration skills with demonstrated ability to influence design decisions, drive cross-functional alignment, and present technical information to diverse audiences.

Experience with PLM, MES, configuration and data management controls and systems. Experience working to AS9100 process and standards. Experience with working hands-on-hardware and fabrication methods Experience building and producing classified hardware in SCIF’s or SAP facilities.
