Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Los Angeles, CA

Design, build, and maintain custom test solutions and data-acquisition systems to validate mechanical and electrical hardware. Lead design reviews, execute hardware test plans and qualification campaigns, analyze failures, implement test automation, and collaborate with design and manufacturing engineers to improve reliability.

Own end-to-end procurement and supply chain for mechanical, electrical, and specialty hardware. Source and qualify suppliers, run RFQs, negotiate contracts, manage inventory/lead times, maintain forecasts and vendor performance, implement scalable material-planning processes, and collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, and finance to ensure material readiness and cost optimization.

Design, build, and qualify fixtures, jigs, and workholding for CNC mills and lathes. Partner with machinists and CNC programmers to validate setups, source components, perform first-article inspection, maintain a tooling library, drive continuous improvement, and support facility tooling layout for production ramp-up.

Own dynamics, loads, and vibration analysis for hardware driving requirements, testing, data analysis, and model correlation. Define vibe/shock requirements, execute test programs, perform root-cause analysis, optimize designs for cost and manufacturability, and collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure integrated system performance.

Execute end-to-end procurement for EPC projects (including NRC-regulated), including sourcing, RFQs, bid evaluation, negotiation, purchase orders, supplier management, compliance with technical/regulatory requirements, performance monitoring, documentation, reporting, and continuous improvement.

Manage and maintain on-prem Linux and Windows infrastructure and hybrid Microsoft 365/Azure services. Support identity, endpoint security, monitoring, and engineering simulation applications. Automate provisioning, contribute to ITSM processes, provide helpdesk escalation, and maintain documentation and SOPs to ensure secure, reliable, scalable systems.

Own full-cycle recruiting for technical and operational roles, partner with hiring managers, source passive and active candidates, run interviews, maintain ATS accuracy, track recruiting metrics, and support university outreach and process improvements to hire specialized engineering and operations talent.

Develop and maintain automation and test infrastructure for hardware-in-the-loop and manufacturing validation. Build modular Python/C/C++ test software, automate acceptance test procedures, create data-analysis algorithms, and manage telemetry, CI, and deployment tools to increase test frequency, reliability, and observability across engineering workflows.

Design, implement, and maintain observability, alerting, and developer productivity systems for production and internal services. Instrument services with metrics, logs, and traces, run on-call, respond to incidents, lead reviews, and automate operational workflows to improve reliability and reduce toil.

Execute and own complex hardware test campaigns from setup through data acquisition and analysis. Maintain DAQ/test stands, support instrumentation and calibration, author/maintain test scripts, perform root-cause investigations, and collaborate with engineers to improve test processes and documentation.
