We are dedicated to solving the next generation of warfare with lethal systems that deter kinetic conflict and protect global security. The Role Great hardware balances performance, manufacturability and serviceability. Mach is building unmanned defense systems at a rate the traditional defense industrial base was never designed for. That takes designs that are built to be built: fast, right the first time, at the lowest cost, and easy to maintain in the field. This is a hands-on technical leadership role with direct reports. As Lead Manufacturing Engineer, Avionics, you'll be Mach's go-to expert on designing electronics, harnesses and avionics boxes so they can be built, tested, installed and maintained quickly and without errors. You'll write Mach's Avionics DFMA guide. You'll push the field forward through research and development (R&D) on new materials, hardware and processes. Key Responsibilities Own the Avionics DFMA guide Write, publish and maintain Mach's Avionics DFMA guide. It should cover: design rules, with the reasoning and test data behind them preferred components, connectors, wire and processes standard features and tolerances worked examples and review checklists Write design-for-manufacturing, assembly and test rules (DFM, DFA, DFT) for PCBAs, wire harnesses, connectors and avionics enclosures (box build). Set connector retention and mate-assurance standards: two-st
