Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Design, build, and deploy manufacturing automation solutions (fixtures, assembly systems, test stations) to increase throughput, quality, and efficiency. Integrate hardware and software (PLCs, vision, robotics), perform ROI and bottleneck analysis, support NPI-to-production transitions, and collaborate with Manufacturing, Test, Design, Quality, and Software teams to enable scalable production.

Design, build, and deploy manufacturing automation equipment and test systems to increase throughput, quality, and efficiency. Lead automation from concept through production, integrate hardware/software, support NPI transitions, perform ROI and process capability analysis, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to scale production.

Lead and build the electrical design assurance function: define worst-case circuit analysis, derating, DFMEA, and formal EV/DV verification; plan and execute EV/DV campaigns (thermal, vibration, EMC/EMI, power quality); design and build HIL stations, test fixtures, and automated data acquisition; partner with NPI and production to ensure DFT and transfer of verification into manufacturing; hire and develop engineering staff.

Lead strategic technical recruiting for senior hardware engineering roles, sourcing and evaluating top-tier candidates, partnering with engineering leaders to shape hiring strategy, and building data-driven recruiting processes to scale a defense-focused hardware team.

Lead and grow the Ground Software engineering team building operator-facing Ground Control Station software across desktop and rugged platforms. Own architecture, reliability, release cadence, low-latency video and telemetry pipelines, multi-vehicle workflows, C2 integration, test strategy, and engineering quality practices (code review, testing, CI/CD).

Take end-to-end ownership of electronics hardware design and verification for unmanned systems. Perform worst-case circuit analysis, author and execute verification plans, lead board bring-up and integration, coordinate environmental and EMI/EMC qualification, support FMEA and derating, and contribute to schematic capture and production qualification.

Own PCB layout from schematic release through fabrication for air and ground systems. Define stackups, placement, routing (high-speed, RF, power, flex/rigid-flex), manage Altium libraries and design standards, produce IPC-compliant fabrication/assembly packages, and coordinate with vendors for DFM/DFX and manufacturability.

Lead business development and sales for U.S. forces in the CENTCOM region: identify stakeholders, build relationships with operational units, coordinate demos/training/operational evaluations, and convert regional demand into fielded capability while working cross-functionally.

Lead technical execution of engineering deliverables for defense programs from development through production and sustainment. Translate contractual requirements into engineering plans, manage CDRLs and technical documentation, drive verification/qualification and production readiness, coordinate cross-functional teams, track risks/actions, and ensure compliance with contractual and MIL standards.

Lead strategic technical recruiting for senior hardware engineering roles, sourcing and evaluating top-tier candidates, partnering with engineering leaders to shape hiring strategy, designing targeted sourcing campaigns, leveraging analytics to improve processes, and ensuring mission alignment. Focus on building recruiting engines for rapid growth in a defense drone company.
