Full job description

We're looking for an Senior Integration & Test Engineer to own the end-to-end validation of our hardware systems. You will be responsible for bringing up, integrating, and testing complex electro-mechanical and avionics systems-ensuring they perform reliably in mission-critical environments.

This role is highly hands-on and cross-functional, working closely with hardware, avionics, and software teams to take systems from prototype through flight readiness.

- Own system-level integration and test of hardware and avionics systems

- Design, build, and maintain test infrastructure (racks, fixtures, harnessing, and tooling)

- Develop automated and manual test procedures for board- and system-level validation

- Lead bring-up and debug of electrical systems, including root cause analysis and failure investigation

- Execute environmental and functional testing (thermal, vibration, DVE, etc.)

- Collaborate cross-functionally with hardware, firmware, and software teams to validate performance

- Drive improvements in test coverage, reliability, and scalability of test systems

- Support flight qualification and launch readiness activities

- Support launch campaign operations including payload integration checkouts, pre-flight verification, and real-time anomaly resolution.

- Experience with integration, test, or validation of hardware systems

- Strong hands-on experience with test automation, instrumentation, and lab equipment

- Experience building test setups: fixtures, harnessing, racks, and data acquisition systems

- Background in avionics board-level testing and debugging (power, signal integrity, communications)

- Familiarity with scripting (Python or similar) for test automation

- Experience with RF, sensors, LiDAR, or avionics systems is a plus

- Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, schematics, and interface control documents

- Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with high ownership

- Experience supporting complex hardware or engineering programs

- Background in high-growth or deeply technical organizations

- Experience managing high-value spend portfolios or vendor-owned inventory agreements

- Familiarity with automation tools or process optimization within procurement workflows

- Prior experience in aerospace, space, or other frontier technology industries

- Background in environmental testing methods including thermal vacuum, vibration, shock, and EMI/EMC.

The salary range for this position is $125,000 - $200,000 annually. The actual base salary offered will depend on factors such as job-related skills, experience, qualifications, and internal equity.
