Director of Avionics Manufacturing

Long Beach, California

Space Launch | Avionics | High-Rate Manufacturing

Overview:

Join a cutting-edge launch provider pushing the boundaries of additive manufacturing and aerospace innovation. As Director of Avionics Manufacturing, you’ll take full ownership of avionics hardware production - from PCBs and harnesses to integrated avionics units - leading a multidisciplinary team to deliver mission-critical systems for next-gen orbital launch vehicles.

This is a high-impact leadership role where you’ll play a key part in scaling from development to high-rate production, helping shape the future of launch vehicle avionics.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead the end-to-end manufacturing and testing of avionics hardware, ensuring full lifecycle readiness from process development to vehicle integration
  • Manage and grow a cross-functional team spanning manufacturing engineering, environmental & functional test, and production operations
  • Develop scalable, high-reliability manufacturing processes for PCBAs, harnesses, and integrated avionics systems
  • Drive execution to meet schedule, yield, and quality targets using data-driven risk identification and continuous improvement methods
  • Collaborate closely with engineering, supply chain, integration, and quality to ensure manufacturability and testability at production scale
  • Champion the use of lean principles, automation, and digital manufacturing tools to increase throughput and traceability

What We’re Looking For:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Aerospace, or Manufacturing Engineering
  • 10+ years of experience in aerospace, automotive, or electronics manufacturing, including 5+ years in leadership roles
  • Proven track record of managing complex electro-mechanical production - especially PCB assembly, conformal coating, potting, and harness fabrication
  • Familiarity with avionics test methods including functional validation, RF/electrical testing, thermal, and vibration testing
  • Ability to lead high-performing teams in dynamic, fast-paced environments with shifting priorities

Bonus If You Have:

  • Experience with space-grade standards such as SMC-S-016, MIL-STD-810, IPC-610/620, and J-STD-001 Space Addendum
  • Background in automated test development, GSE design, or high-voltage battery assembly
  • Track record of applying lean manufacturing or Six Sigma principles in high-rate production environments
