Top Engineering Jobs in Los Angeles, CA

Own the design, development, integration, verification, and delivery of spacecraft avionics from concept through flight-qualified hardware. Lead avionics architecture, PCB design, harnessing, embedded system interfaces, testing, environmental qualification, component selection, supplier coordination, and technical documentation. Collaborate with propulsion, guidance and control, thermal, and software teams to build reliable avionics for deep-space missions while establishing technical standards and executing autonomously.

Own spacecraft avionics hardware from concept through flight, including system architecture, PCB design, harnessing, embedded interfaces, integration, verification, and environmental qualification. Collaborate with propulsion, guidance and control, thermal, software, suppliers, and internal stakeholders. Lead hardware builds, component selection, testing, documentation, and delivery for reliable deep-space missions.

Own and architect the frontend platform for a unified, safety-critical operator interface. Lead application shell, design system, shared data layer, frontend consolidation, performance optimization, real-time telemetry rendering, cross-team technical direction, and mentorship. Build data-intensive applications using advanced state management and streaming technologies.

Own vehicle subsystem hardware through design release, assembly, testing, and delivery. Develop build flows, work instructions, test procedures, tooling strategies, and manufacturing systems for scalable production. Support first-article builds, provide hands-on floor troubleshooting, resolve non-conformances, conduct root cause analysis, and drive continuous improvement. Coordinate design, supply chain, production, test, technicians, and vendors to ensure part readiness, quality, tooling availability, and schedule alignment.

Designs, develops, tests, and deploys safety-critical flight software for Relativity Space’s Terran R rocket. Responsibilities include architecting real-time systems, integrating guidance and control algorithms, processing vehicle sensor data, controlling equipment, developing telemetry infrastructure, supporting hardware and physics simulations, establishing engineering best practices, and mentoring junior engineers.

Develop, test, document, and deploy embedded Linux software and firmware for rocket avionics, network switch, and camera platforms. Responsibilities include hardware and platform bring-up, networking and video integration, debugging across kernels, drivers, hardware, and applications, validation, performance tuning, architecture improvements, and field troubleshooting. The role collaborates with hardware, systems, and platform teams to deliver reliable, high-performance software for safety-critical aerospace systems.

Responsible for testing, integrating, and operating electronics PCBAs, integrated electronics systems, and vehicle systems. Designs experiments, develops custom test hardware, writes test software, and applies electronics, software, data acquisition, and control systems fundamentals to avionics and rocket vehicle testing.

Develop and deploy full-stack applications supporting purchasing, manufacturing planning, scheduling, test-data analysis, and factory operations. Lead the software development lifecycle, collaborate with non-software stakeholders to define requirements, apply agile and continuous delivery practices, solve complex problems, and mentor engineers. The role involves building scalable platforms across front-end, services, analytics, industrial automation, and AI capabilities.

Design, test, analyze, and manage custom avionics electronics for the Terran R launch vehicle across the full lifecycle, from concept and board bring-up through verification, qualification, production, integration, and vehicle operations. Collaborate with mechanical, thermal, electrical, software, propulsion, GNC, fluids, and stage engineering teams to deliver reliable, manufacturable, mission-critical hardware on schedule.

Leads the vehicle fluids product team responsible for Terran R’s fluid system architecture, requirements, integration, testing, operations, and flight readiness. Manages engineers, defines interfaces with propulsion, structures, GNC, and avionics teams, guides thermofluids analysis and hardware design, establishes qualification and acceptance testing, reviews operational data, and mentors technical owners. The role requires aerospace vehicle lifecycle experience, fluid system and propulsion expertise, and technical leadership across complex hardware programs.
