Senior Electrical Integration Engineer

What You'll Do

• Lead Electrical System Builds: Own the end-to-end integration of electrical and avionics subsystems - ensuring components are correctly sourced, inspected, installed, and verified on both test benches and full vehicles.
• Bridge Design and Reality: Collaborate with design engineers to resolve installation issues, improve integration practices, and feed back lessons learned to future revisions.
• Ensure Electrical Integrity: Perform detailed inspections, continuity checks, grounding verification, and system bring-up to validate readiness at every stage of build.
• Support Rapid Troubleshooting: Diagnose and resolve electrical issues during integration and test including signal noise, routing conflicts, or component failures.
• Work with Vendors and Partners: Manage sourcing and quality of harnesses, electrical hardware, and subassemblies - guiding suppliers through specs, fabrication, and inspection criteria.
• Improve Build Processes: Optimize installation practices, document procedures, and work side-by-side with technicians to ensure safe, repeatable, high-quality electrical builds.
• Drive Toward Certification: Support the verification and documentation of flight-critical systems to meet our roadmap for production and regulatory certification.
• Contribute to Flight Test Readiness: Participate in integration checkouts, safe-to-mate activities, and rapid turnarounds in test environments to keep our flight programs moving.

What You'll Bring

• Strong technical foundation and practical experience in electrical engineering, aerospace engineering, or related fields
• A deep passion for building real-world, safety-critical systems - and seeing them come to life in the lab and on the vehicle
• Demonstrated, hands-on professional experience integrating electrical and/or avionics systems in complex platforms (aerospace, maritime, defense, or automotive environments)
• Expertise in interpreting electrical schematics, harness diagrams, and mechanical installation drawings
• Strong understanding of low-voltage DC power systems, grounding/shielding practices, and high-integrity cable routing
• Proven ability to work across disciplines including mechanical, propulsion, software, systems, etc. to drive integration forward
• Experience performing component inspections, managing incoming quality checks, and ensuring readiness for installation
• Proficiency with electrical test equipment (e.g. multimeters, bus readers, continuity testers) and troubleshooting techniques
• Confidence working alongside technicians on the shop floor - guiding installs, resolving real-time challenges, and adapting as needed
• High attention to detail, especially when working with flight or mission-critical systems in dynamic and harsh environments

Bonus Experience

• Prior experience as an integration engineer or build lead for flight or marine vehicles
• Exposure to high-voltage or high-power system integration
• Familiarity with sourcing and qualifying custom harnesses and subassemblies
• Experience writing build manuals, work instructions, or installation guides
• Hands-on support of flight or field testing environments, including rapid troubleshooting under time pressure
• Understanding of electrical system certification processes or industry standards (e.g., DO-160, MIL-STD, etc.)

Who We're Looking For

• Collaborative Team Player: You believe that great things happen when teams work together. You communicate effectively and collaborate with engineers, stakeholders, and other cross-functional teams to align on goals and move projects forward. You bring people together, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and moving towards a shared vision.
• Creative Problem Solver: You thrive on tackling complex challenges and finding innovative solutions. Whether you're resolving installation challenges, debugging elusive electrical issues, or adapting on the fly during integration and test, you bring a practical, inventive mindset to every problem. You don't just patch issues - you improve processes, anticipate downstream impacts, and help turn one-off fixes into scalable solutions that raise the bar for future builds.
• Adaptable & Agile: In a fast-paced, ever-evolving startup environment, you quickly adapt to changing priorities and requirements. You approach challenges with a calm, resilient mindset, and know how to pivot and adjust your approach as needed, ensuring that progress continues without missing a beat.
• Innovative Mindset: You’re driven by curiosity and a passion for technology. You’re passionate about driving continuous improvement, embracing new technologies and methodologies to enhance efficiency, quality, and team performance.
