Furientis is building a new class of defensive interceptor missile for the United States and its allies. We design, build, and produce these systems end-to-end, from physics through manufacturing, at production rates legacy primes cannot match and at a fraction of the cost. We recruit engineers who internalize the warfighter's problems and bring deep mastery of the relevant technologies, without the institutional inertia that has slowed the legacy primes. Work done at Furientis has meaning.
The Avionics Team owns the electronics on the vehicle: flight computer, compute boards, power conversion, sensor interfaces, wiring, and the embedded firmware that ties them together. The same engineers design the boards, write the firmware, and bring them up at the bench. There is no handoff layer between hardware and software.
Avionics sits on the critical path for every flight test, so the team's velocity sets the program's pace.
We are looking for an outstanding electrical engineer with deep experience in power systems and circuit design for aerospace or other demanding hardware environments. You will lead the design and development of power electronics, distribution systems, embedded electrical hardware, and mission-critical avionics circuitry. This role requires both strong theoretical engineering fundamentals and practical hands-on debugging capability.
Location & Travel This role is on-site at our Los Angeles, CA HQ; remote work is not available. The position requires monthly weekend travel for test events and supplier engagements.
Clearance Candidates must be a U.S. Person and eligible to obtain a U.S. SECRET security clearance. Active clearance is not required at hire; we will sponsor.
Equal Opportunity & Export Compliance Furientis is an equal-opportunity employer. To comply with U.S. export control laws, employment is contingent on eligibility to access export-controlled information.
AI in Hiring We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
