Airplanes anyone can fly. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
We're looking for an engineer who enjoys figuring out how hardware actually gets built. Our electrical and mechanical engineers design flight computers, display systems, engine monitoring hardware, power electronics, and integration hardware. Your job is to help turn those designs into products that can be manufactured reliably and efficiently.
What they're looking for
- Approximately 2–5 years of experience in manufacturing engineering, NPI, production engineering, or a similar hands-on hardware role
- Experience building electromechanical or electronics products
- Familiarity with PCB assemblies, cable assemblies, machined parts, and mechanical assemblies
- Comfortable working directly with suppliers and contract manufacturers
- Strong mechanical aptitude and a willingness to spend time on the production floor
- Excited to learn and take on increasing ownership as the company grows
More about this role
Most airplanes today still use avionics designed around decades-old assumptions. We think that’s one of the biggest reasons general aviation remains difficult to learn and intimidating to use.
We’re building an integrated avionics platform that makes flying dramatically simpler and safer, with the long-term goal of making personal flight accessible to far more people.
Our team includes engineers from companies like SpaceX and pilots who have spent thousands of hours flying existing systems. We’ve experienced firsthand how difficult aircraft are to build and operate, and we’re designing both the product and the company differently from the ground up.
Today we’re shipping our first generation avionics system into experimental aircraft. That means every manufacturing decision you make directly affects something that will eventually fly.
