Job description

At Aeon, we develop advanced missile systems, built for ground and air platforms. We take pride in our dynamic team that allows us to iterate, build and test quickly. If you are looking to solve hard problems with a passionate team in a hands‑on, fast‑paced environment, Aeon is the place for you.

We are a vertically integrated defense manufacturer developing and producing advanced strike systems and critical subsystems at industrial scale for major defense programs. From its 140,000-square‑foot manufacturing facility, Aeon will bring weapon design and production under one roof, including propulsion, fuzing, autonomy and other critical subsystems. Led by former special operators, senior government officials and experienced aerospace and defense engineers, Aeon is a trusted partner to U.S. government customers and industry.

We are looking to add an Electrical Engineer to our team. As an Electrical Engineer at Aeon, you will work on some of the most technically challenging and impactful parts of our product. You will help ensure our electrical hardware is built, tested, and delivered reliably at scale. Your contributions will directly affect our products, their use case and our customers. You’ll also help drive the design changes needed to keep production moving.

This is a highly collaborative role: you’ll partner closely with design, manufacturing, test, and other engineering disciplines to ensure what we are building works in production and fits the larger system. Whether you’re troubleshooting a PCB assembly, improving a test process, or implementing a design change to resolve a production issue, your work will be key to Aeon’s success.

This is a full‑time, in‑person role located in Austin, TX with plans to move to Cedar Park, TX early 2027.

What you’ll do at Aeon:

• Collaborate with Test Engineering to design, build, and validate electrical portions of production test systems (ATE, fixtures, and test harnesses) that ensure product quality and support scalable manufacturing throughput.
• Support electrical hardware from design release through manufacturing, test, troubleshooting, and fielding of Aeon’s products, ensuring designs can be consistently built and tested.
• Own the investigation and resolution of electrical issues on the production floor, working with manufacturing and test teams to keep builds moving.
• Implement and document electrical design changes, including schematic and PCB updates in Altium Designer, to improve manufacturability, testability, yield, and reliability.

We’d love to hear from you if you have:

• 3+ years of industry experience in electrical hardware design, manufacturing support, test, and troubleshooting.
• Experience troubleshooting PCB assemblies and electronic systems, identifying root causes, and implementing practical design fixes.
• Experience with schematic capture and PCB design using Altium Designer.
• Hands‑on experience with lab instruments such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, and signal generators.
• Experience supporting hardware builds, production testing, and collaboration with manufacturing teams.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

While it’s not required, it would be an added plus if you have:

• Demonstrated success supporting high‑volume production environments, including yield improvement and design for manufacturability and testability.
• Proficiency with Teamcenter and Siemens NX.Strong understanding of engineering change orders (ECOs), configuration management, and production documentation release processes.
• Expertise in developing and optimizing production test procedures, fixtures, and troubleshooting methods.
• Proven capability to collaborate with contract manufacturers and resolve component or assembly‑related issues.

What We Offer:

• Fully Company‑Sponsored Health Benefits: Enjoy comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage at no cost to you, including coverage for eligible dependents, plus HSA and FSA options.
• Team Events & Company Celebrations: Connect with colleagues through team‑building activities, employee events, and celebrations.
