Senior Avionics/ Electrical Engineer

Los Angeles, CA (onsite)

Up to $210K base + 15% perf bonus + Equity

US Citizens only

My client is a Series A hardware start up is rewriting the rules of global logistics. Our platform launches on commercial rockets, then glides back from orbit to deliver tons of cargo—anywhere on Earth—in under 90 minutes. The same reusable vehicle ferries high‐value products made in microgravity back to customers, opening a new era of just‐in‐time space manufacturing.

The company was founded by aerospace innovator, whose earlier work put the first 3D printers on the International Space Station and proved orbital fiber‐optic production.

Backed by $37 million in contracts and awards from the U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, NASA, and other mission‐critical customers, they pair aerospace‐grade hardware with a software‐driven logistics stack to get life‐saving supplies, strategic payloads, and next‐gen materials precisely where they’re needed—fast. Headquartered in Los Angeles, we’re building the infrastructure that lets humanity move anything, anywhere, at the speed of space.

We are looking for a Senior Avionics/ Electrical Engineer with 6+ years of experience to join our team and take ownership of avionics subsystems from end to end. You will be a key player in designing, testing, and producing the electronic systems for our Earth return vehicles, collaborating closely with engineers across multiple domains. This is a crucial role for developing the hardware that will guide our spacecraft, bridging the gap between our GNC, software, and aerodynamics teams.

Requirements:

• 6 - 10 years of experience in full- cycle avionics/electrical hardware design and build for aerospace applications.
• Aerospace experience — hardware flown or integrated on spacecraft, re- entry vehicles, or defense platforms.
• Full- lifecycle PCB/PCBA experience: design, schematic capture, layout, assembly, and hardware integration.
• Preferred - Startup or small- team experience — comfortable wearing multiple hats.
• Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related engineering field.
• Proficiency in Altium Designer for PCB design – schematic capture, layout, and PCBA integration.
• Hands- on with electrical test equipment (e. g. oscilloscopes, signal generators, multimeters, electronic loads).
• Python scripting for hardware test automation.
• Based in or willing to relocate to LA/Playa Vista — 5 days/week onsite.
• US Citizen or Green Card holder — ITAR applies, no visa sponsorship

Responsibilities

• Develop electrical architectures, design circuits, capture schematics, and lay out PCBAs for our spacecraft.
• Design custom electrical harnesses and oversee their construction.
• Develop and support electrical ground equipment and test hardware, including Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) and FlatSat setups.
• Drive root-cause analysis and troubleshooting of electronics-related issues in spacecraft and ground systems.
• Collaborate with GNC, software, and aerodynamics engineers to integrate hardware, firmware, and software components.

Why candidates should join

• Return lane from space: Getting to space is solved. Getting back is not. We are building the infrastructure for Earth return — orbital re-entry vehicles, DOD airdrop systems, and eventually global 60-minute delivery via spacecraft. First re-entry mission: April 2027.
• Proven space leadership: Founded by the man who built Made in Space — the first company to 3D print on the ISS and manufacture pure fiber optics in microgravity. The team has taken space companies from concept to IPO, generated over $2.5B in contracts and awards, and raised over $500M in capital.
• Government-backed, venture-ready: $37M STRATFI contract + ~$10M in seed funding. Pre-Series A in the horizon — early equity, real upside.

Why this Role?

• End-to-end ownership: 33-person team means you're not a cog. You own avionics subsystems from architecture through integration and flight — working directly with GNC, software, and leadership.
• Rare technical surface area: Re-entry vehicles, paraglider navigation, PCB design for spacecraft — the kind of work that exists at maybe a handful of companies in the world.
• Competitive Comp: $150K–$210K base + pre-Series A equity. 10–15% annual performance bonus. $5–10K relocation package available.

Company Description

Elastium is an advanced manufacturing startup company transforming the legacy footwear industry toward rapid, fully automated, and localized production. Our manufacturing platform combines proprietary 3D printing technology, software, and materials science to make shoe production as effortless as pushing a button. We're building the most frictionless way of turning bits into useful atoms, sending ripples of singularity across the industry, and bringing tens of billions of GDP back to America.

Responsibilities

You'll fully own the nervous system of the most advanced FGF/FDM 3D printers on Earth, from PCBs to control packaging and harnessing. Your mission: build E/E systems that ruthlessly reduce complexity, are easy to assemble and support, and scale fast. Specifically, you will:

• Execute full PCB design cycle: requirements, schematic design, component selection, layout, bring-up, test, debug and integration.
• Develop electrical schematics, wiring interconnect diagrams and generate production specs for cables and harnesses.
• Lead the automation/DFM war on control packaging, from design through production, to reduce build time, wiring complexity, and manual assembly. Requires deep experience with traditional panel design and assembly process.
• Hunt down complex electrical/software issues using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and embedded debugging tools.
• Source electrical components including connectors, harnesses, sensors, power/distribution hardware.
• Collaborate closely with other engineers to ensure seamless system integration.

Qualifications

• BS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
• 5+ years of experience designing, testing, and shipping complex E/E systems (Robotics or Industrial Tech preferred).
• Proficiency with Altium Designer.

• You're high-agency operator with mission-critical discipline and accountability. You identify and neutralize threats before they escalate.

Why this job matters

At Elastium, you won’t be another engineer optimizing inside an existing box—you’ll build in the wild, architecting a new industrial era where factories run like software, starting with footwear. Footwear is an enormous challenge because it’s a massive, messy, labor-heavy industry that left the U.S. for a reason. Reinventing how footwear is made at scale requires the deployment of autonomous plants with thousands of robots that can be reconfigured in real time with no human in the loop. If you want to solve problems that fundamentally reshape the physical world, this is the mission.
