Avionics Hardware Engineer

Lumera is partnering with a fast-growing defense technology company founded by former SpaceX leaders. Backed by one of the year’s largest defense-tech funding rounds and multiple Army and Navy contracts, they’re moving their flagship system from flight test into production, so the hardware you design will fly, and soon.

End-to-end ownership of avionics or high-reliability electronics Hands-on PCB design (e.g., Altium, OrCAD), bring-up, and lab debugging Ability to work autonomously and drive issues to closure Preferred Aerospace, space, defense, or automotive hardware experience Motor controllers, power electronics, backplanes, or flight hardware MIL-STD or DO-254 exposure; embedded or FPGA-adjacent hardware Supporting hardware through integration, test, or flight Best fit: engineers who want full board ownership and fast build-test cycles, not layout-only or test-only backgrounds.
