[İş Radarı](https://isradar.com.tr/) / [İş ilanları](https://isradar.com.tr/ilanlar) / Senior Electrical Manufacturing Engineer Aktif Ofis Los Angeles, CA Yayınlandı · 20.09.2026 Greenhouse (US) # Senior Electrical Manufacturing Engineer K2 Space K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by over $1 billion in total funding from leading investors including Altimeter Capital, ICONIQ, Kleiner Perkins, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Redpoint Ventures, and T. Rowe Price — and with over $1 billion in signed contracts across commercial and US government customers, we're mass-producing the highest-power satellite platforms ever built for missions from LEO to deep space. The rise of heavy-lift launch vehicles is shifting the industry from an era of mass constraint to one of mass abundance, and we believe this new era demands a fundamentally different class of spacecraft. Engineered to survive the harshest radiation environments and to fully capitalize on today's and tomorrow's massive rockets, K2 satellites deliver unmatched capability at constellation scale and across multiple orbits. With multiple launches in 2027 and plans to scale to 100 satellites a year, we're Building Bigger — helping develop the solar system and build toward a Kardashev Type II (K2) civilization. If you are a motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and you're excited about contributing to the success of a high-growth Series D-funded company, we'd love for you to apply.The Role  You will partner with design engineers early in the process to ensure manufacturability, build the first prototype, design the build flow and fixturing, and finalize the process for transition to production. Once transitioned, you will lead the effort to scale production and meet K2's ever-growing demand. You will drive new techniques for manufacturing complex PCBAs, harnessing, and integrated electronics systems, and partner closely with mechanical teams on the electromechanical assemblies and machined components these electronics integrate into. In your first 6 months you will develop manufacturing methods and tooling for integrated avionics systems, define manufacturing flows for electronic subsystems, and lead Design-for-Excellence (DFX) guidance across PCBs, PCBAs, machined components, and higher-level assemblies. In your first year you will own the implementation of these advanced manufacturing techniques on flight hardware, scale the technology you develop to high-rate production, and help mentor other engineers on the team.  Responsibilities  Lead design-for-excellence reviews with design engineers across PCBs, PCBAs, machined components, and assemblies for initial design, flight hardware, and tooling  Lead the development of innovative manufacturing systems for spacecraft electronic assemblies, including electromechanical sub-assemblies, and harnessing.  Create custom tools and processes to support the manufacturing technologies you create, including Manufacturing Execution System (MES) software   Demonstrate the advanced manufacturing techniques on prototypes, working with the design teams to continuously improve the manufacturability of the designs  Develop the subassembly build flow and iterate to create an efficient production flow for the satellite and ensure that build times align with current takt times  Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior Manufacturing Engineers, technicians, and design peers on electronics manufacturing best practices  Partner with a team of advanced manufacturing engineers to perform R&D of novel manufacturing technologies for current and future spacecraft products  Qualifications  Bachelor’s degree in electrical, mechanical, aerospace, or other relevant engineering discipline  6+ years of experience in a high volume, rapid production environment in a manufacturing, integration, and/or design engineering role   Demonstrated track record leading product development and/or process improvements  Strong understanding of IPC standards (e.g., IPC-A-610, IPC-A-600, J-STD-001) for PCB/PCBA workmanship and inspection  Strong understanding of how to set up a manufacturing/production floor for first article builds and transitioning from low to high-rate manufacturing.  Deep understanding of avionics subassembly manufacturing technologies, including PCBA assembly, wire harness manufacturing and PCBA/mechanical enclosure integration  Strong understanding DFX guidance to design teams across PCBs, PCBAs, machined components, and mechanical assemblies  Strong understanding of GD&T and mechanical assembly drawings, with the ability to review and provide feedback on electrical and mechanical designs  Good understanding of conformal coating processes (selective spray, dip, or brush application) and associated inspection/rework methods for PCBAs, per standards such as IPC-CC-830 and NASA-STD-8739.1  Nice to Have  Strong understanding and track record of tooling design for electromechanical subassemblies and electronics  Demonstrated ability to independently develop production processes from the ground up, including driving design improvements for manufacturing  Strong understanding of technician workflows and build tooling, with a track record of working closely with production teams to implement feedback-driven process improvements. Experience with aerospace manufacturing standards such as soldering standards, torque specifications, and quality assurance standards  Familiarity with CAD software (NX or equivalent) and GD&T  Strong understanding and experience working with MES, with the ability to set up the foundation for procedure creation, template generation and documentation of non-conformances  Compensation and Benefits:  Base salary range for this role is $140,000 – $175,000 + equity in the company  Salary will be based on several factors including, but not limited to: knowledge and skills, education, and experience level  Comprehensive benefits package including paid time off, medical/dental/vision/ coverage, life insurance, paid parental leave, and many other perks  If you don’t meet 100% of the preferred skills and experience, we encourage you to still apply! Building a spacecraft unlike any other requires a team unlike any other and non-traditional career twists and turns are encouraged! If you need a reasonable accommodation as part of your application for employment or interviews with us, please let us know. Export Compliance As defined in the ITAR, “U.S. Persons” include U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents (i.e., Green Card holders), and certain protected individuals (e.g., refugees/asylees, American Samoans). Please consult with a knowledgeable advisor if you are unsure whether you are a “U.S. Person.” The person hired for this role will have access to information and items controlled by U.S. export control regulations, including the export control regulations outlined in the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR). The person hired for this role must therefore either be a “U.S. person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. § 120.15 or otherwise eligible for a federally issued export control license.
