Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Los Angeles, CA

Lead product definition, roadmap, and adoption for the CTOs agentic AI portfolio. Translate strategy into requirements, KPIs, and milestones; run discovery, prioritize backlogs, instrument usage, and shepherd incubation-to-handoff for AI/dev platforms and foundation-model tooling.

Lead design and delivery of flight-critical power electronics for the X-BAT aircraft, including inverters, DC-DC converters, and battery management. Own full hardware development cycle, drive PCB layout, harden designs for harsh environments, mentor engineers, lead reviews, and manage program timelines through production.

Own and maintain native C++ build systems for autonomous aircraft. Improve developer velocity by reducing build/test cycle time, integrate CI with HIL and simulation, implement monitoring and alerts, troubleshoot build/test failures, and collaborate with engineers to design and deploy DevEx/DevOps solutions.

Build and scale Shield AI's corporate treasury: manage global cash positioning, liquidity forecasting, FX risk mitigation, banking relationships, debt covenant compliance, intercompany funding, and treasury controls while partnering with FP&A, Accounting, Legal, and Tax.

Lead architecture, development, and validation of end-to-end aircraft fuel systems. Drive cross-functional integration, system-level modeling (CFD), verification, supplier qualification, ground and flight test support, anomaly root-cause analysis, and mentor engineering teams while contributing to long-term fuel-system technology roadmaps.

Design, implement, and deploy safety-critical navigation and state estimation systems for aerospace platforms. Develop EKF and GNSS/INS integration, multi-sensor fusion for GPS-denied environments, FDIR and integrity monitoring, and V&V test plans. Support certification, requirements allocation, performance analysis, flight test evaluation, and provide technical leadership and mentoring.

Define and operationalize company-wide engineering design standards for aerospace programs (VBAT, XBAT). Standardize CAD, drawing quality, design/analysis workflows, documentation, EBOM/MBOM handoffs, and configuration management. Partner with engineering leaders to scale engineering excellence, influence cross-discipline design decisions, and improve consistency without blocking execution.

Integrate, characterize, calibrate, and validate multi-modal navigation sensors (IMUs, GNSS, cameras, altimeters). Develop test plans, calibration scripts, and data-processing tools; collaborate across electrical, mechanical, and software teams; support schematics, CAD, drivers, and lab-based sensor testing through production.

Lead design and optimization of low-observable aircraft features, perform electromagnetic signature modeling and simulation, direct RCS testing and validation, partner with materials and multidisciplinary teams to mature RAM and coatings, translate threats into survivability features, and support program assessments and milestone decisions.

Lead design and implement production React/TypeScript interfaces for agentic AI products. Prototype and ship working front-end code, design interaction patterns for LLM-driven systems, run user research, build reusable component patterns, instrument usage, and collaborate with product teams to land designs into production.
