Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Seattle, WA

Lead design and implementation of secure, scalable network and server-room infrastructure for enterprise and classified environments. Define cybersecurity and zero-trust architectures, produce ATO documentation, develop base media solutions, evaluate vendors, and support troubleshooting, monitoring, and incident response for LAN/WAN/cloud/hybrid and UAV C2 systems.

Lead design and development of primary and secondary aircraft structures for next-gen UAVs. Own CAD/FEA-driven structural lifecycle, material selection (composites/metal), testing, integration, verification, and mentor junior engineers while ensuring manufacturability and compliance with aerospace standards.

Support avionics and power systems for the X-BAT aircraft: set up and execute benchtop and environmental test campaigns, debug PCBAs and harnesses, design simple PCBAs/fixtures, assist avionics lab buildout, and collaborate with cross-functional teams on high-voltage power systems (generators, batteries, converters).

Design and develop complex electro-mechanical mechanisms for autonomous UAVs. Own concept through drawing release, perform kinematic and structural calculations, run preliminary FEA, prototype and test mechanisms, and support pre-production builds and flight testing while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

Lead and grow the mechanical engineering team responsible for avionics packaging, thermal, harnessing, and electro-mechanical design for the X-BAT aircraft and ground vehicle. Drive architecture, cross-functional integration, manufacturing readiness, and deliver flight-critical systems that endure harsh environments while hiring and mentoring engineering leads.

Design and develop primary and secondary structural components for a next-generation UAV. Execute full design lifecycle, perform hand calculations and limited FEA, support structural validation and testing, produce drawings and documentation, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure manufacturability and system integration.

Lead a multidisciplinary propulsion team to develop flight-critical propulsion subsystems and components from concept through flight operations. Oversee design, integration, testing, supplier coordination, and cross-functional alignment for valves, ducts, thermal and fluid systems in high-temperature, vibration-prone aerospace environments.

Lead structural analysis for UAV airframes and components using FEA and hand calculations. Execute static, modal, fatigue, vibration, and damage-tolerance analyses; validate models against tests; support flight test correlation; optimize structures for weight, performance, cost, and manufacturability; mentor analysts; and coordinate cross-functionally to influence structural design decisions and standards.

Own and deliver the X-BAT flight control system across all flight phases. Design control allocation for over-actuated systems, develop high-fidelity 6DOF simulations, define and execute V&V strategies (including Monte Carlo and HIL), diagnose sim-to-flight mismatches, support flight test operations, integrate control with propulsion/aero/actuation/sensors/autonomy, and mentor engineers.

Design and develop complex hydraulic fluid systems and mechanisms for autonomous UAV launch/recovery. Perform CAD, tolerance and materials selection, structural calculations and FEA, prototype and test hardware, support pre-production and flight testing, and collaborate across disciplines to meet performance, schedule, and reliability goals.
