Job description

Base Pay Range

$30.00/hr - $50.00/hr

We’re a small, fast-moving engineering team developing high-performance hardware for demanding applications. We’re looking for someone who enjoys hands-on work, problem-solving, and taking broad ownership over how complex structures are built.

This role requires a candidate to work the 2nd shift (1pm onwards).

What You’ll Do

You’ll be responsible for turning design concepts into precision composite components. This includes preparing materials and tooling, performing detailed layups, managing cure processes, maintaining equipment, and contributing to continuous improvements in methods and build quality. You’ll be the first to spot manufacturability challenges and will help shape how future parts are produced.

Core Responsibilities

• Carry out accurate composite layups and cure operations
• Prepare molds, materials, tools, and workspaces
• Build or modify tooling, fixtures, and test setups
• Maintain and organize composites equipment and supplies
• Troubleshoot unusual build challenges and propose solutions
• Collaborate with engineers on design and process improvements

Preferred Background

• Strong hands‑on experience working with composites (e.g., carbon fiber, pre‑preg, thin structures)
• Ability to produce high-quality parts using manual techniques
• Experience with custom tooling or small-batch builds
• Exposure to precision hardware domains (aerospace, racing, robotics, etc.) is a plus

If you enjoy building complex things, moving quickly, and having a big impact on a small team, we’d love to hear about the projects you’re most proud of.
