Purpose

Not every exceptional hire fits neatly into a job req.

Sometimes the person we need is the one who looks at an impossible problem, finds the hidden power source, and starts solving before anyone has written the plan. If you have a little Dr. Rodney McKay energy, deep technical range, high output, and enough humility to work well on a small team, we’d love to hear from you. Just don’t blow up 3/4 of a solar system (well, 5/6, it’s not an exact science).

Arcturus is building a first-of-its-kind materials company at the intersection of carbon nanomaterials, metals, advanced manufacturing, and electrification. We’re always on the lookout for exceptional people who can help us move faster, think deeper, build better systems, or solve problems we haven’t even written down yet.

If none of our open roles quite describe you, tell us what does. Tell us what you would build, own, improve, or invent here, and why you’d be excited to do it at Arcturus.

We make exceptions for exceptional people.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
