Sorian Aero
Role
Sorian Aerospace is building a high‑performance fighter‑class jet for adversary air (Red Air) missions and advanced pilot training. The goal: deliver the maneuverability, integrated electronic warfare, BVR targeting, autonomous flight, CCA interoperability, and flight experience of front‑line fighters — at a fraction of the cost. As an Avionics Engineer, you’ll work hands‑on with the avionics lead to design, build, and integrate the full flight electronics stack — including compute modules, sensors, displays, and wiring. You’ll be responsible for building the hardware and firmware that makes the aircraft fly, communicate, and adapt. We’re looking for high‑agency builders who want to ship and iterate fast. Responsibilities
Design custom PCBs and avionics modules for onboard computing, sensors, and I/O Develop and integrate flight computer logic, including power distribution, signal conditioning, and redundancy Build and test wiring harnesses, sensor packages, and communication buses Work closely with flight controls, autonomy, and systems teams to integrate full‑stack avionics Create clean, testable hardware and firmware that survives real‑world flight environments Support build, integration, and test cycles — including ground and flight test campaigns Requirements
2–6 years of experience designing avionics systems or embedded hardware Proficiency in PCB design tools (e.g., Altium, KiCad, Eagle) and schematic capture Familiarity with flight computers, embedded firmware, and aircraft wiring standards Working knowledge of I/O protocols (CAN, ARINC, RS‑422, Ethernet) Comfortable debugging both hardware and software at the bench or on the aircraft U.S. citizenship or permanent residency required Results
Deliver avionics hardware that works from day one of flight test Support fast iteration and upgrades as the platform evolves Help build a high‑trust culture of engineering rigor and system‑level thinking Availability
Full‑time, based in Long Beach, CA Some evenings and weekends may be required during integration and test events Compensation Range
$120,000–$180,000 base salary meaningful equity complete healthcare benefits for you and your dependents Company Core Values
We run it hotter. We run it faster. We value hands‑on execution and technical ownership. We hire people who care about what they build — and how fast they can improve it. To apply:
